Top 10 Cape Henlopen State Park Hotels

The Bellmoor is blessed with a wonderful location near everything in Rehoboth Beach. The Hotel is very well managed and obviously strives for excellence. The employees are “the difference” as they are consistently pleasant, courteous and knowledgeable. We always look forward to Our seasonal getaways to the Bellmoor, and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere they provide.

As a Bonvoy member, I’ve stayed at hotel all over the United States. This was not one of the better ones. While I understand it is a resort town, October is second season, and not prime summer season when a hotel like this would be packed. We checked in on Thursday. We had no maid service at all until we checked out on Monday, not even to empty the trash. We stopped by the front desk to get trash bags so we could change out the trash bags. Front desk said to put the trash in the hall, where it sat for more than a day. We found potato chips that weren’t ours by the pull out couch, the dresser drawer didn’t stay closed, the lighting was very dim in the room, there was only sheer curtains in the front windows so it was not dark or private in the room at any point and very bright as soon as the sun was up. You could hear the people above you walking around ALL night, like in a bad apartment building. Breakfast was not great, oatmeal was extremely watery, “omelets” were microwaved with processed cheese, not much redeemable here. Spend a few more dollars and stay at a better quality hotel. This is NOT a hotel I would choose to stay at again.

Great location. Lots of restaurants to choose from nearby and a walking distance to Tanger outlet shopping mall. Hotel and room are clean. It's has lots of USB charging points inside suite. Comfortable bed. Bathroom is clean and well lit. The only thing I can say is they need to up the pressure on the shower head. It has a pool and gym. I highly recommend and will go back for next business trip.

The overall property seems clean and the staff helpful (at least during the day). My issue is within the room. We stay in alot of chain hotels so when we got to our room we both immediately knew this room was smaller then a standard hotel room, unfortunately our price for the room not small. It reminded us more along the size of a Microtel (a little larger). So because of the size they can only fit 1 chair in the room and the only nightstand is 1 between the two beds and it's not very big (no compartments or drawers). The real pain is the closet door that doubles as a bathroom door. This is not the way to save a buck Hilton! Pony up and get 2 separate doors. First of all the door is quite heavy and if you're in the bathroom trying to get out you have to get a good grip and it's almost impossible for small children. Another is a privacy issue, the door has no lock so if someone goes to close the closet door they are opening the bathroom door! The other problem with this set up is safety, I had opened the bathroom door and just as I was exiting the bathroom my husband was opening the closet door and got my hand caught in the door. It's a really stupid idea on so many levels! The last issue is a very serious safety issue, at around 4 am all the smoke alarms went off on our entire floor (and I believe throughout the building. To say they were loud is an understatement. But piercing loud is what you want if there is a fire but what you also want is some instructions as what we should do. The alarms were going off for at least 20 minutes. We tried multiple times to call the front desk and no one answered! No instructions, no guidance no nothing! Thankfully it wasn't an active fire (but we didn't know that) but if it was we would have been out of luck. Because of this I would not return to this hotel.
