Howard Johnson Ocean Resort - Deerfield Beach North Fort Lauderdale

A short guide to North Fort Lauderdale

Although North Fort Lauderdale is mostly residential, many visitors go to enjoy the surf at Pompano Beach and Deerfield Beach. Abundant marine life in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea makes for excellent diving. Just north of downtown, Wilton Manors is a well-known gay enclave. In Coconut Creek, butterflies, parrots, and hummingbirds fly freely at Butterfly World, the world's largest butterfly park.

The hotel was steps away from beautiful Deefield Beach. The room was modest but very clean. The hotel staff were very pleasant and helpful. There were a few minimal hidden costs for parking and the room safe that were not shared in advance. All in all, a very pleasant, restful stay.

Older hotel, but clean and you couldn't beat the location. Across from the beach, and very close to all types of shopping and food, a very quaint clean beach community. The beach was all that I could ask for and I live on the west coast of florida. Deerfeild beach is a little hidden jem. If you stay at the hotel you are offered ocean view or city view, ocean view is worth it! Parking was $10 a day extra charge but it was close and finding parking off site would be a nightmare. So we sucked it up and enjoyed ourselves very much!

I have stayed at the Howard Johnson's Deerfield Beach over the past 20 years. It is a perfect location for people young and old, since you cross a cobble stone street and there is the wide open beach with a fishing pier par excellence next door. The executive staff is experienced, having been there for years. Harpoon Louie's is an excellent restaurant. Lunch poolside is always an option as well. This is the first time I have used a booking service and I was disappointed to find that the parking was charged as an extra ($10/day). That should be disclosed so that it can be considered when making the reservation.

Great location, great beach and great staff. Restaurantes all over the blocks around the hotel. Great beach and the staff was very friendly. Just remember that with the restaurants and little shops around means a little noise at night. It did not bother me. Other than that, great accomodations for the price.

I grew up in Deerfield Beach and knew this was the neighborhood I wanted to stay for a family vacation. I knew the hotel was there when I was a kid but was pleasantly surprised to discover the entire first floor public area to be recently remodeled. two restaurant/bars, Live music nightly and a pool restaurant/bar for guests only. The rooms are adequate. I told the mgr about the poor ratings for firm mattresses online and she said they have egg crates to place on the mattress for a softer bed upon request. My bed was firm but comfortable. Free internet was fast and location directly in front of the fishing pier and new beachfront walking path were great. Try the Whales Rib around the corner for great local food and drinks at reasonable prices.

Rooms are a little small and dated, but the mini balconies on the beach side provide an exceptional view.

The hotel was in a great location amd pretty much what I expected for a Howard Johnson's. The beach was right outside and there was a great walking path to take for exercise while checking out the surrounding beach area. The restaurant and bar in the hotel were good. The beds were really uncomfortable and hard as a rock. I had to stretch each morning to straighten up. The staff was just okay. They did their job but did not go out of their way to make you feel like you were on vacation. The drain in the tub was clogged when we arrived and it was taken care of as soon as we reported it. You are definitely paying for location, not frills.

Reviewed by Shelly of Royal Palm Beach Florida on Apr 25, 2007

My husband and I love this hotel. It is perfectly located within walking distance to many good places to eat or just cross the street and you are on the beautiful beach! We had our honeymoon at this hotel and will always return to it for just a night to ourselves without the kids. It would also be a perfect hotel to take children if you chose to.

Howard Johnson Ocean Resort - Deerfield Beach 2008.10.25
Not recommended Trip type: All Others "Bra läge men slarvig städning"

Reviewed by M of Jönköping on Oct 25, 2008

Var på genomresa och stannade endast en natt på detta hotell. Personalen i receptionen var trevlig. Man fick däremot fråga om allt man ville veta och personalen tog inga egna initiativ till att informera. Rummet var väl utrustat, däremot var städningen alldeles för ytligt gjord. Kaffemuggarna luktade rakvatten och hade hål i botten. Själva ytorna i badrummet såg ut att vara rengjorda, men inte hörn och avrinningshål. Hotellet har ett bra läge precis vid strandpromenaden.
