Albemarle Sound Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in Albemarle Sound, United States of America

"Excellent staff, property, room set up, convenient. "

"Loved the beach and pool. "

"We enjoyed our recent stay! The rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Big balcony. Convenient free parking. Onsite restaurant was great. Decor, furniture and finishes were outdated if your into those kinds of things being modern. Balcony door in our room didn’t lock, so if you have small children that is not ideal (may have just been our room). Air conditioning was not cooling as much as we would have liked, but we are used to it being 68 at home and this one would cool to 74-72 with it being set as low as it would allow on the thermostat. Not unbearable by any means; you just may need a fan if you like it cold. We would stay again in the future."

"Great view for the Partial Ocean View. Could watch the sunrise from the balcony each day. Easy access to the beach and great location for everything else in OBX. Included breakfast was extra bonus. The hall and room carpet along with the room furniture, though newer, was a bit worn though. Would still stay again."

"Loved the ocean view from our room. Great hotel for the price"

"My adult son and I just finished a motorcycle trip to OBX. We picked Dolphin Inn because we wanted an old school motel experience, with easy access, and beach front. All at a good value. Dolphin Inn was PERFECT. It's been recently refreshed, and the rooms were very clean, nicely decorated and QUIET. The staff was friendly and professional, and everything we needed was available. Dolphin Inn is located about 15 minutes from the "action" at Nags Head, but a 7-11 and local favorite bar and grill was an easy walk. The room was a little on the small side and didn't have many "extras" but it had everything we needed, including a coffeemaker and nice TV. We don't smoke, and we couldn't smell smoke in our room, but if you do smoke I would highly recommend Dolphin Inn as there are chairs to smoke outside each room. This in no way bothered us as non smokers. In fact, most folks sat in the chairs to enjoy the weather, and we struck up conversation with them. They gave us tips on what to do and see. You don't get that in the large chain hotels. Often times we'd look at the large Comfort Inn hotel a few lots down, and comment on how glad we were choosing the Dolphin. As for convenience, it was VERY nice to just walk out your door and be at your vehicle. It was also very quiet at night with no traffic noise. We're big fans of the Dolphin Inn, it was just right for us. "

"Wonderful service especially in breakfast room. "

"Very nice stay, wish there was an extension of the platform that leads to the beach. Sometimes the walk uphill in the sand is difficult."

"The amazing view of the oceanfront is the best."
