Frommer's Review

The Carousel is an attractive choice for families and couples. One of the oldest of north Ocean City's high-rises, it offers plenty of amenities, including pools indoor and out, restaurants, a beach bar and grill, a playground, and even pizza delivery. Rooms are well-equipped, if small, and even have kitchenettes. If those 237 rooms aren't enough, 102 two- and three-bedroom oceanfront condo units are available in the 22-story tower. Some are decorated by the hotel; others are privately owned with varying decor. Carousel is a conference center and can be fully booked. Off season, the hotel offers some great values.

Facilities:
Oceanfront restaurant; outdoor restaurant; deli and coffee bar; 2 bars; indoor pool; outdoor pool; tennis court; fitness room; Jacuzzi; sauna; indoor ice rink (open to the public)

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
