Hotels near Silverball Retro Arcade, Asbury Park

Let's start with the positives. The location is great! It's near the ocean in a cute downtown area of Ocean Grove. The nearby City of Asbury is amazing with restaurants and shopping and the boardwalk along the beach offers guests a chance to get some fun, clean exercise. Also, the hotel was reasonably clean. Now the negatives. We stayed in room 17 on the fourth floor. The room was not great at all. The shower only ran warm water for 5 minutes before turning cold. It was horrible to come back to a warm/cold shower after being gone all day or first thing in the morning. The bed was very uncomfortable, and the duvet/comforter was weird. The comforter would go to the bottom of the duvet every night while we were sleeping which left us with just the duvet to keep warm. There is no fan in the bathroom just FYI. Also, the stairs to the different floors are steep and narrow so hard to take your luggage up and down. Finally, housekeeping is so-so. We just asked for towels most days to use with our cold shower, but the one day we did ask to have the room cleaned, we didn't get any service at all. Overall, I would NOT recommend this hotel. There are a lot better hotels options in the area.

Great value for the money. Simple but clean rooms, plenty of towels for one person, very pleasant and helpful staff. Only 2 downsides; 1 minor, 1 major. Minor: the bed is comfortable, but you only get one blanket. So bring an extra, if that's your thing. Major: I saw a couple of cockroaches. I wasn't surprised, because previous reviews had mentioned them. They weren't everywhere, but still best not to leave any of your stuff on the floor. The irony is that the building was being power washed while I was there - maybe put some of that money into better insect control.

This is one of the worst hotels we’ve ever stayed in. First off, the staff members here are about as useful as a Walmart door greeter. They stand there and ignore you until you start making enough noise. Then they take a sigh and serve you and first give you an attitude then give you your keys. The rooms are filthy and smelly. With the price you pay, you would think this place is a palace. This place is a dump and I’m surprised it’s still in business. I will always have a bad feeling about this place from the couple of times I’ve stayed here. I had an equally lousy stay last year. You think I’d learn, but the manager promised to make it up to me if I ever came back to town. Well, I did and their offer was not worth all the trouble we dealt with. We will NEVER stay at this nightmare hotel again. Do yourselves a favor and stay at the Hampton Inn down the street. Much better service and quality for about the same price as this hotel

I really hate having to do this, but they quite literally left me no other option. TO THIS DAY, they offered us no resolution. Mick Murtha and Sheraton Hotels Eatontown, New Jersey sabotaged my wedding. If “sabotage” sounds like a strong word, it is. And yet, it is the most accurate and objectively true term to describe what Mick Murtha and Sheraton Hotels did to my wife and me. One (1) week (ONE WEEK) before our wedding day, we found out that our entire hotel block (which we had booked almost a year prior, mind you) had all been given away. My wife and I, as well as ALL of our guests (well over 100 people) literally had nowhere to stay. ”Computer error” is all Mick Murtha offered as an explanation. But here’s the thing. Computers don’t make mistakes; PEOPLE do. Not only did Mick Murtha never explain to us what actually happened, never take accountability or apologize for his unbelievably egregious mistake, never offer to remedy the situation in any way whatsoever, but initially, he also tried to NEVER EVEN TELL MY WIFE AND I THAT THIS WAS GOING ON. Yes, you read that correctly. With our wedding LITERALLY one week away, when Sheraton Hotels and Mick Murtha realized that an entire wedding block (over two dozen rooms) had been double-booked over due to a Sheraton staff member error - OH, excuse me; I mean a “computer error”… he did not even contact THE BRIDE NOR THE GROOM. We had to be the ones to reach out to HIM, once we started receiving a barrage of calls and text messages from concerned friends and family members. Forget about basic hospitality; this was a level of apathy and disrespect that borders on criminal. You see, SOME (but not all… because why would Sheraton Hotels be accurate or hospitable about a single thing??) of our wedding guests had started receiving emails letting them know they no longer had a room. One week before our wedding. And the bride and groom were never even notified by the hotel. Unimaginable, and genuinely disgusting. Eventually, many of our guests were moved into the Double Tree in Eatontown. Mick Murtha and The Sheraton were no help with this process whatsoever. Truthfully, they made matters even worse, even MORE convoluted and stressful, by suggesting that we move everyone into a much lower-star hotel which didn’t even have a bar. We had tried to explain that we really needed a bar at the hotel, as this would be where our afterparty would be held. But Mick Murtha and Sheraton continued with their nonstop disrespect and uselessness, so my wife and I did our best to remedy the situation on our own. In the end, no acceptable resolution was found. We had guests spread throughout three different hotels, which disrupted the shuttle route, the afterparty, and our entire weekend. But the worst part was the stress that my wife and I had to deal with thanks to Mick Murtha and Sheraton. On top of everything else going on in our lives and desperately trying to finalize our wedding planning… to add THIS on top of it

I recently stayed at the Hewitt Wellington Hotel, and its old-era charm truly captivated me. No matter where you look, the hotel exudes a timeless, elegant ambience that makes you feel like you've stepped back in time. I stayed in Room 16 Deluxe, located on the third floor, overlooking the rear parking lot. The room was the perfect size for a solo stay, with a spacious bathroom that was a pleasant surprise and added to the overall comfort. However, the only drawback was the dustiness throughout the room, which took away from the welcoming feel. It was the one aspect of my stay that could have been better. That said, I would still highly recommend this hotel, especially if you're seeking a romantic getaway, whether solo or with a partner. The overall atmosphere and unique character make it worth the visit!

Elegant Old Hotel very well kept with fantastic views, a pleasure to stay there here but know what your getting into. The Hotel itself is beautiful old classic with lots of Brass and glass. Spotless and clean, warm with fantastic views. The only dings were, no Bell Hop service. I have a physical walking problem but had to be my own BellMan. Getting the cart, loading it and pushing and pulling via a very small evevator to the lower level and down long hallways with a few turns to make it to my room. The other drawback was the stairs and amount of distance you have to walk to get to your room, depending on which section of the hotel your in. I was very fortunate to have the Promenade deck with a view of the pool. King size bed was slightly firm but comfy with lots of small throw pillows. Even a small chandlier, how quaint. If you like old charm then this is the place for you. The room draw back was No refrige or coffee pot in the room. Also when I checked on time mind your our room was not ready and we had to wait 45 minutes. This was ok we because it was a georgeous day and we sat on the deck having drinks, taking in the fantastic views of the docks and river, very relaxing. The dining room is oh so elegant with the same fantasitic view. We did have breakfast, unfortunatly the food is just so - so with a mid to high price, Your paying for the room and view mostly. The service was fine all staff where welcoming and attentive. All in all I enjoyed the hotel and would stay here again but you have to know what your getting into.

This hotel is impeccable, the only issue is the entire hotel stinks Like weed to the point its nauseating. And I usually don't hate the smell, but overkill here. They take such pride in this hotel I can't believe they'd allow it. If I was the manager I'd kick anyone smoking out. There's balconies that can be used in each room to smoke on. The hotel is really really beautiful like a boutique hotel. Great breakfast as well.
