The oceanfront view from our room was stunning. The furniture in the room felt outdated. The kids loved the game room, but the pool chairs were not suitable for older guests. The slow service at the bar was a letdown.

The oceanfront view was stunning and the easy beach access was a huge plus. Elevators were slow, which caused delays at check-in. The game room was a hit with the kids, keeping them entertained for hours.

I had the best time splashing around in the indoor pool – the kids loved it too! Waking up to ocean views and hearing the waves was a total dream. Plus, the staff was super friendly and made our stay even better!
100% recommend 😍❤️

The beds and pillows were the best I've ever slept in.
It wasn't inexpensive, but it was still a fair deal.

Fabulous location on the boardwalk. Stunning ocean views, even from the rooms at the back. The check-in process was seamless, thanks to a friendly staff member who humorously upgraded us. The amenities are excellent; the pool and arcade are particularly vibrant. Breakfast is a highlight, with delightful mimosas and cheerful service. some areas need attention. Cleanliness was lacking—towels were not fresh and the shower head was in poor condition. The gym needs maintenance, with much of the equipment out of order. Staff interactions weren't always positive, as evidenced by the JAVA employee’s unprofessionalism. Despite these issues, I would return for the atmosphere and amenities.

clean room, clean environment with convenient access to the beach and a lovely ocean-view balcony that made early mornings special.
Nothing to improve on.

The oceanfront balcony gives stunning views that are worth the stay. The location is prime it’s hard not to love the boardwalk excitement!
The pool definitely needs some TLC to make it a splashing good time.

Just a decent option for a cursory stop in Ocean City with reasonable price. Great oceanfront view.

Great beach access and clean rooms, but beds were too firm for comfort.

We had an enjoyable romantic escape at a beachfront hotel with an indoor pool and an on-site restaurant open 24/7. The staff were friendly and accommodating, providing convenient parking and a spacious room with a lovely balcony for relaxing. We appreciated the easy access to snacks and water bottles, as well as the availability of a shower unit after the beach.
There were some drawbacks to our stay. The TV channels were not functioning, and the initial room lacked a view and kitchenette.

The balcony situation was a real letdown—no privacy at all! The thin railings felt unsafe, and I could hear the neighbors smoking right next to me. It really ruined the vibe of what should’ve been a relaxing getaway.

The large, clean room had a stunning ocean view and direct access to the boardwalk, making mornings magical with sunrise glimpses. The two pools were a nice touch, but service lagged; we waited far too long for breakfast and faced check-in delays despite arriving early. The Epic restaurant offered limited options at steep prices, and the pillows were a letdown. Still, the atmosphere felt inviting, and the location was unbeatable. Would consider returning for a deal.

The room featured a lovely oceanfront view, perfect for sunrise. The bed was comfortable, but the carpet was stained, which was disappointing. The bathroom was tiny, lacking ventilation, and the placement of the toilet paper holder was inconvenient. Noise from the hall and other rooms disturbed our rest, diminishing the experience. Temperature control was adequate, making the space cozy despite the weather outside. The furniture was dated, reflecting the hotel’s age. while there were some nice aspects, the cleanliness and room layout left much to be desired.

The Grand Hotel offers a fantastic location with easy access to beach cafes, an arcade, and a beautiful outdoor pool. I loved the large, clean room with a stunning ocean view. Despite some service hiccups, the overall experience was enjoyable and well-suited for family vacations.

My experience was fantastic with the beach just steps away from the hotel lobby, giving me easy access to a beautiful beach walk every morning, and the boardwalk bursting with fun was literally right outside, with fun shops, eateries, and arcade games accessible from inside the hotel, which was super convenient, plus the view from my spacious room was stunning, making it a great place to unwind; however, I did notice that the room cleanliness could be improved.

Our recent family stay at the hotel was perfect for families thanks to the extensive amenities. The game room with billiards, shuffleboard, and a giant chess set kept my kids entertained for hours, while the beach cafe, ice cream shop.
My children wanted more kid-friendly activities.

The room was spacious with a mini kitchen and two queen beds, which was great for accommodating our group. the bathroom was a bit small, and the carpeting was noticeably stained. The kitchen area had nice vinyl wood flooring, but it would have been better if it continued throughout the room. We loved the self-contained nature of the hotel, with various onsite restaurants, a cafe, an ice cream shop, and souvenir stores. The location was superb, allowing us to enjoy our morning coffee on the balcony overlooking the ocean. The proximity to the beach and numerous dining options within walking distance made our stay very convenient. Unfortunately, there were some issues that affected our overall experience. We were disappointed by the fire alarm waking us up early in the morning and the indoor pool being closed for the duration of our stay without prior notice. The staff's response to these issues was not very accommodating, leaving us feeling frustrated. we encountered problems with clogged toilets and stained towels during our stay, which was not up to our expectations. while the Grand Hotel Ocean City Oceanfront has its positives like the excellent location and convenient amenities, there are areas that need improvement, particularly in terms of maintenance and customer service. We hope to see these issues addressed to have a more seamless and enjoyable stay.

The Java Beach Café was a top spot to munch and get that caffeine boost. The Grand Hotel made my event unforgettable, and the Grand Terrace views were jaw-dropping.
The rusty shower head made me feel like I was back in the Wild West.

I had a fantastic time enjoying the multiple on-site activities like the arcade, pool, and various dining options – perfect for unpredictable weather days. The stunning beach and ocean views from the room made my stay truly memorable. the friendly staff and convenient location near the quieter end of the boardwalk made exploring easy and enjoyable.

the property also features on-site dining options, and I particularly enjoyed visiting the Java cafe for coffee.
No issues with the hotel. 🤔

With easy access to the beach and a cool game room, my friends and I had a blast. The free Wi-Fi kept us connected, and we even found awesome tips for exploring. Perfect for young adventurers!
Just wished there was a more happening nightlife scene nearby for party animals like us! .

We had a fabulous time at the hotel, thanks to their assistance in rearranging reservations to accommodate us. The staff was great, and the 24-hour coffee shop and convenient location made our stay even better. The oceanfront room with a large balcony provided beautiful views, and the free covered parking was a plus.
It would have been nice to have more lighting in the room, especially in the closet area, and the ironing board wasn't working well. More outlets/USB ports and the ability to stream mobile devices to the TV would have been a great addition.

The oceanfront balcony provided breathtaking views, especially during a thrilling thunderstorm. The location was perfect for exploring the boardwalk and enjoying the Assateague horses. The spacious room and comfortable beds made for a relaxing stay.
