“Friendly staff and very convenient !”

I recently stayed here with my two children and their grandmother. My husband was unable to come due to work so convenience was very important to us. The room was very clean and everything was at our fingertips. The pool was nice and there is a cafe where you can get breakfast and lunch. The food was very good. The thing that impressed us the most was how friendly the staff was to us and how they made the experience very enjoyable. We would definitely go back !

“Great experience”

In the past we have spent $3000 or more to rent a house for a week. this year we wanted to spend just a few days in Ocean City, NJ a resort we've come to feel apart of over the past 30 years. The Forum put us right in the middle of downtown as well as just 3 blocks from the boardwalk and beach. we had a great time.

“Great place to stay!”

We had a great experience at the Forum. The hotel employees were all wonderful to deal with, the location was perfect for walking to everything (beach, boardwalk, restaurants and store), and we plan to go back again!

“Great location and family friendly!”

The Hotel is very convienient to the beach and boardwalk. It is an older hotel and they do a great job working to keep it clean and maintained - just know it is an older building and therefore won't have that new really clean feel. Staff very helpful and friendly. Room had a little fridge and microwave. The pool was great!

“Forum Motor Inn”

We booked a last minute Labor Day Weekend trip to Ocean City and were extremely pleased with the Forum Motor Inn. The rooms were exceptionally clean with adequate dresser/closet/bathroom space. The beds were comfortable, despite others' reviews to the contrary. The pool was an added bonus! The Forum Motor Inn is centrally located for all boardwalk and dining amenities - we were able to park our car on site and not get in it until it was time to leave! Beach passes were included for a small deposit. Excellent hotel and location!

“met all our needs!!”

We were so impressed with the friendly staff in addition to the family members who own the motel. It was very clean. Met our needs....and such nice staff...we would stay again..

Traveler's tip
we ordered crab leb dinners at a fresh seafood market and picked them up...prepared with the hot butter, baked potato..etc..i'm sure it was 1/2 the cost of getting them at a restaurant...and talk about FRESH...and...the kids didn't feel like sitting/waiting in a restaurant...it was a win-win situation...

“Not bad”

It was convenient to the beach, but the rooms were small and the carpet a bit run down. Not a bad option if trying to cut expenses.

Area:

Ocean City, New Jersey, United States of America: Although only 20 minutes away, Ocean City is distinctly different from Atlantic City. There are no casinos or bars here, and its restaurants do not serve alcohol. As a result, Ocean City bills itself as a family friendly destination. Its 2.5-mile wooden boardwalk includes an amusement and water park. A haven for antiquing, Ocean City’s compact downtown features boutiques and a monthly art walk.
