Top Central Hotel Reviews

Impala Island Inn

8/10 Good

"Hotel is outdated and could use a reno. One important thing to know: there is no elevator to the 200 level rooms. There is only an elevator to the 500 and 600 level rooms which by the way the hotel is only two floors. Beds were super comfy and we had a sofa. The tv didn’t work and from the sofa you couldn’t watch tv. Not really sure why there was a sofa in the room instead it would’ve been nice to have two chairs and a table. Also, our fridge was in the closet so we couldn’t put our suitcases in there nor could we hang anything up so the layout was just strange in the room, but it was very clean. Staff were very nice. Hotel is right behind back entrance of castaway Cove so perfect location!! Overall 4 stars"

Biscayne Suites

10/10 Excellent

"My family has been staying here a few years now and we love it! It is always very clean, up-to-date, rooftop pool is well kept and fun, the amenities in the room are perfect and the room is spacious enough for what you need. Location is great too. Much better than where we have previously stayed in Ocean City. We will be coming back for years to come."

The Linda Grande Hotel

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Their location in proximity to the beach ans boardwalk is excellent. Just a few blocks walking and you're there. They have beach chairs and beach passes for you to use during your stay. That was a nice bonus. The hotel is very clean and they have a fantastic large porch with many areas to relax with family and friends, plus games as well. The only thing that I wasn't happy about was that our room wasn't cleaned at all during our 2 night stay. We returned from the beach when staff were started to clean to take showers but never had a knock on a door or anything asking about cleaning, we left an hour later to go out and figured maybe they were saving our room for after we left. Came back at 9pm and the room had not been cleaned at all. So if the front desk staff were told that it was cleaned, that wasn't true. Also, having a chair or 2 in the rooms would have been nice since there is nowhere to sit other than on the bed."
