Henlopen Hotel, Rehoboth Beach

We made our reservations and confirmed them twice for a special rate as guests of a wedding party. When I checked out, we were charged another $21 per night. When I told the man at the desk I was quoted $199 and not $220, he told me that that was what the computer said and that was that. My husband's family (the groom's parents) was staying at the same hotel and also used their restaurant for the Friday night welcome dinner and I would think we would have been treated better than that! I would not recommend this hotel.

It was O.K. Just O.K. The room keys have been copied so many times you have to fight with them to get them to unlock the room. We walked in and there were body hairs on the floor of the bathroom from a previous visitor. And a sticker from a purchase on the shelf in the shower that could have been removed, if anyone cleaning the place bothered to look as they cleaned. Boardwalk was closed for repairs, so we had to walk half a mile just to get to Rehoboth Avenue to access the boardwalk - not their fault, but I wasn't told that when I booked the room. It had the basics. The bed pillows were old and flat, so no amount of luxury as the web page would lead you to believe. Ice machines were on alternate floors, so not convenient. Sodas in the machines were warm.

We stayed at Henlopen Hotel for a friend's wedding --- the reception was held on the top floor. The reception hall was nice - it overlooked the ocean on three sides. However, I would not recommend the accomodations. When we arrived, the staff appeared unkempt (wore jeans, sweatshirts, sneakers) and made inappropriate/unprofessional comments. We have traveled a lot but were shocked at the appearance of our room. It was unlocked when we arrived, and was dirty. There was hair, dirt and food on the floor. The mini fridge was moldy. The ammenities were old and not well-kept. This hotel would be much better if it were cleaned and if the hotel staff were more professional. Older ammenities are okay if they are maintained, but this hotel is not. Unfortunately a sticky residue remained on all surfaces, including the radiator and floors. Henlopen Hotel is right on the beach and located near the boardwalk and cute shops. Its location is nice, and it has potential, but unfortunately we were sorely disappointed. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. We were shocked at the price for such an unkempt establishment.

The rooms where very clean!!! We have stayed at many hotels along the coast line. The Henlopen is by far the place you wanna take your family to. From the time we walked into our room to check out was perfect!!! Wait till you see the rooms.

The hotel was great - great stuff and great views of dolphins out of the windows

Our family had a very nice time staying here. What's not to like with the beach right outside your room and the boardwalk right there, as well. A few blocks up from main street, so you don't feel suffocated from the crowds. Room was nice. Generally speaking the place could be a little more tidy, but after all it is the beach.

I visited in mid October. The hotel wasn't perfect, but I had a very enjoyable stay. There were very few people on & around the boardwalk, even though the weather was very beach friendly.

The location was superb. The rates were excellent. The cleanliness was terrific! The staff was extremely pleasant!!! AND THE BEST OF ALL.....My daughter lost a necklace and never knew she lost it in the room. Just 2 days after returning home we received the necklace in a padded envelope from the hotel. I HAVE ALREADY TOLD EVERYONE ABOUT THIS!!! This is truly the best place to stay in REHOBETH BEACH DELAWARE!!! Thank you so much and we will continue to book our vacations with you guys!!!! Keep up the excellent work!! It is nice to know their are honest people left in the world. You guys are just the best!!! Thanks so much!!!!
