About
The salt air hits you as you step off the ferry onto the harbor. The Hotel (formerly Hotel Ciel) sits right there in Fire Island Pines, the only true hotel in town. It's a simple beach hotel with a swimming pool and outdoor seating area. But recent reviews paint a disappointing picture. Guests reported that promised amenities like the third-floor lounge and complimentary breakfast coffee were never available. One review called it a dump, noting a room with just a bed and no dresser or TV. At $$ price tier, it's basic but overpromised. If you're looking for reliable accommodation in the Pines, you might consider the nearby Belvedere instead.

“Disappointment...”
The hotel's website promised that a reservation included access to a new third-floor lounge with complimentary breakfast coffee, a large entertainment screen, and plenty of space to play. That lounge was never open. There was no complimentary coffee or big-screen system. This was very disappointing because the advertised amenities were not provided. Guests often bring food to Fire Island, so having mini-fridges in each room would be helpful, along with a microwave for heating meals. Next time, I would choose a different place.

“Ghetto Hotel!!”
Avoid this awful place at all costs! It's terrible. The room only had a bed, with no dresser or television. They didn't even put the bedside lamp on a table; it was sitting on the dirty floor.
