We enjoyed our two night stay at the Carriage House. Our room was attractive, very clean and had a little porch off of it. The delicious breakfast had a lot of variety and the staff was very helpful. We loved the location! It was only a block from the beach and near town. A great place to go and relax! We highly recommend it!

It was clean. Room small but expected that. Old building so small bathroom no where to put toiletries. Biggest issue was no parking. It’s every man for himself in that neighborhood. Yes it’s summer at the shore I get it. But is it be prepared to circle for parking a long time and walk.

Everything at the Carriage House was as promised and a breeze, from parking and check-in to great breakfast and afternoon fruit and cookies. Staff was helpful and attentive and my room, No. 10, was large and lovely, with great access to the porch (being March I didn't use it but would be great in warmer months).

Beautiful Victorian hotel in a lovely neighborhood of Ocean Grove. The breakfast is extensive, with quiches, avocado toast, breads, fruit parfait, etc. Many rooms have balconies & patios, great for relaxing. A block from the boardwalk and walking distance to nice restaurants.
