The overall property was beautiful and the room lived up to expectations with a gorgeous ocean view. However, we had a problem with a leaking AC that was never addressed. We also found the that the front desk staff was extremely unwelcoming and lacked hospitality instincts and skills. Never a hello or good morning .. and when we questioned the AC after first time no response, the desk clerk was dismissive - and claimed that we were blaming her since no one had resolved the issue. For $600+ per night we expected better service.

The hotel felt more like an apartment building, but without the convenience of a restaurant. It was clean and in a convenient location, however it had no charm nor coziness.

I didn’t like that the property wasn’t maintained correctly. When we arrived, a staff member was smoking and it was giving me a headache. There was brown water in the walkway. When we finally checked into our room, we tried to use the key to get in and a staff member was inside and said “you have the wrong room.” He didn’t open the door at first, but when he did, he said he was painting. He then said “that they should not have given us that room because they knew that he was painting.” So we went back down to the front desk. It took them about 15 minutes to give us another room. When we went to the next room, it wasn’t even a partial ocean view like advertised. It was dirty and it had trash next to the patio doors with dirt in the hinges. There was mold on the bathroom fixtures, and there was dirt in the corners of the rooms. So we went back to the front desk and told them we couldn’t stay in that room because I really wasn’t comfortable. After 30 minutes of waiting the front desk clerk came back and said we can clean the room. So I asked for a refund. She went back in the back office and finally a supervisor came out and said she’s not authorized to give me a refund. So I asked for a manager. She said there was no manager available at this time and that I could not get a refund. So my wife and I left and contacted Expedia. After 72 hours of waiting, we ended up losing $337 and had to find new hotel. This was the worst hotel experience we had.

This hotel is offers an affordable and quiet beach experience. Room was clean and convenient to the beach which is just steps away. There is no pool or restaurant avilable at this hotel however it is located on the boardwalk with many walkable dining choices. The door that adjoined our room to the next was thin and we were able to hear the people next door briefly. Loved the lobby coffee machine which offers many choices of beverages for free to guests.

Lovely stay at Henlopen Oceanfront Hotel

Our trip to Rehoboth was truly memorable as we celebrated our baby girl's 6-month milestone. We are delighted that we chose the Henlopen Oceanfront Hotel. Victoria and Alexander were exceptionally friendly, professional, and welcoming, always greeting us with a smile. The room was impeccably clean, which is very important to me, thanks to our housekeeper, Diana. We are grateful to the team for making us feel so welcome; we had a wonderful stay.

This was a great option for staying on the beach but not right in the middle of the Rehoboth boardwalk. Easy walk to everything, clean rooms, parking.

Rooms need more attention and cleaning

We saw a decline in room cleanliness from previous stays. The expectation as prices were higher this time, was that at least the standard was kept but you could see the bathroom had barely been cleaned- we had to do our own cleaning to feel ok. The bedding was rumpled which made us think it may have not been changed even. Service at front desk was great but the room itself was disappointing.

Great location and free parking, but the hotel itself could definitely use some updating-furnishings and linens are old and mattresses need to be replaced.
