About

Expect a lively, mixed crowd of locals and visitors at The Empress Hotel, especially in summer when the attached poolside nightclub Paradise draws a party crowd. This beachfront hotel in Asbury Park is known for its sleek, South Beach-like lobby decor and clean, comfortable rooms. Free wifi is included.

The hotel's daytime hours (9am-5pm) suggest it's more of a launchpad for exploring the city's restaurants and nightlife than a place to hang out indoors. If you're looking to dance the night away, Paradise is right there. Guests note the friendly staff and fresh-smelling sheets. If you prefer quiet evenings, this might not be your spot.

“Pleasantly Surprised”

I had a good experience staying at this hotel. The staff were friendly, the room was clean, and I could actually smell the clean sheets when I walked in. It's close to lots of different restaurants. I kind of wish I had stayed through the weekend to see what the crowd is like then. Otherwise, I'd recommend it. The lobby has a nice look, sort of South Beach style.
