“Older but close to everything”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

people found this review helpful

My husband has stayed in this hotel many summers in a row. I joined him for the last 4. We travel alot and I have to say, this is not one of the nicer hotels we travel to. It's older for sure. It's clean and they make a huge effort in the housekeeping dept to make people happy. If you want a shower with good hot water control, this hotel isn't for you. The hot water is either scolding or ice cold so I always opt for bath. I can say the rooms are large. We always bring tons of stuff for the week and have no problems. Don't count on the fridge in the room, it's so so. Instead we bring coolers and buy ice down the road.

The atmoshere is very heavily family and young children. The pool is always over filled with young kids and loud famlies. Kids running all over and parents not making any effort to control them. There IS alot of drinking happening. But we always figure... its the Jersey shore... it's time to relax.

We are in our early 30's. Sometimes come as a couple sometimes we bring a few friends. We always mae sure to get a room in the back of the hotel on one of the top floors away from the kids and with a good view and we are happy. Lets just say... we ALWAYS come back. Must say something right?

We just bring our own pillows and towels. Bring a cooler for your food and beers. And enjoy that the price here is great. Its super close walk to the beach and there is a CVS right next to you. The clubs are somewhat of a walk... if thats what you are looking for. But nothing that I couldn't handle in very high heels.

Believe me we ALWAYS cheer when we see this hotel. its our NJ home!

Room Tip: top floors in the back of the hotel. Or the very front. away from the pool

“Holy Cow!!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I will say I was very surprised to see the condition of the room. It needed to be updated and some new blankets and pillows. They were thin and so was the pillow. I had to go the front desk to ask someone to wash the bathroom mirror, I couldnt see myself, it was so dirty. The toilet and tub were filthy. We were not in there much, but at night, our bathroom looked over the side road, I was afraid to leave my new van there with the screaming, drinking, and overall obnoxious behavior going on. Will not stay there again. The only good thing I would say the people at the desk were nice.

Room Tip: Stay away from side street side

My boyfriend and I stayed at The Hershey from 8/22-8/26 and had the best time. The front desk ladies are so nice. One of them offered to drive us to the Saw Mill, cause a taxi wanted $20 and the other one gave us a umbrella to use, when it started to rain on Thursday night!

The rooms are always clean, the pool is awesome and they even have a bar, so you can get drinks poolside! Its in a great spot, a block off the Broadwalk and close to the Water Park!

I have been staying here for yrs and this is the 1st time I have ever written a review! I would totally recommend staying here!

“Gross”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2011 via mobile

people found this review helpful

I haven't been to the Jersey Shore in 15 years but went with family that wanted to stay at Seaside I will not go back again. The motels pool was nice, bar are and restaurant very clean and nice. The hotel room was gross! The pillows were old and BROWN, I brought 3 of the 4 to the font desk and I was told they were not theirs GROSS! the sheets did not stay on the bed. In the bath room you could see the insulation falling down into the light and the foot was very dirty. My childrens feet were black from the dirty floors. We had a family that stayed next to us that let their crazy children stay up to all hours of the night. We did get the free breakfast it was very good but luckily someone told us they charge you for drinks so we brought our own. I will not be going back to seaside again, I will stay in Maine and go to Old Orchard from now on. Clean hotels and very friendly people. It's sad I love going to the Jersey shore growing up.
