Bristol Plaza Motel

Ocean front view from our room. Beach access was just across the street and wasn’t very crowded when we were there. The pool was clean. Parking spaces are tight, but that’s the same for most of the hotels in the area. Lots of great walkable options for breakfast and lunch close by. Staff was very friendly.

The pool was clean, great customer service and the facility itself was renovated and very nice!

We loved how quiet our room was and the cute sun patios. The fridge with an actual freezer was great - perfect to be able to have icecream :). The toiletries were not great (no conditioner and the shampoo was super watery) so we ended up picking up our own from the grocery store. Not a biggy. The motel had a salt water heated pool and it was sooo fun to be able to swim in October - outside! The pool was clean and a great size to accommodate many people. We loved being so close to the boardwalk/beach. It was an excellent stay and we would definitely stay at Bristol again.

Great location and pool access!

Parking was terrible. Like very bad due to very small spaces, . but room was clean, nice size ,kitchen was a very nice addition, had everything that you would need.

This hotel was clean with a very friendly staff. It was family friendly and quiet at night. It has great views of the ocean and you only have to cross one road to walk down onto the beach. They have a nice pool, grills the guests can use, and a ton of outside seating and tables. The hotel is 8 blocks away from the boardwalk so easily walkable.

Rooms updated, old style, Wildwood Crest Hotel on the ocean. Ocean views everywhere from their large, 2nd floor patio and rooms. Awesome heated, salt water pool with lots of lounge chairs to use it and sun yourself. All staff was so kind and accommodating. Housekeeping was great, too. I'll certainly be back.

It’s my second time staying at Bristol with the family and we absolutely loved it. The washing machines were out of service but other than that everything was fine. The location is perfect and the staff is always super helpful.

The Bristol Plaza resort is beautiful - incredibly clean, friendly and no-smoking anywhere on the property. The suite was spacious and well appointed. I would 100% recommend it and stay here again. My only two criticisms are that the wifi is awful (I used a hot spot the entire stay) and the parking is really rough. The spots are tight and there are poles everywhere. But otherwise, this place is a hidden gem in WW Crest.

Really nice ocean front room private balcony with a kitchen - staff called to tell us when room was ready which was earlier then expected- heated pool nice common area

Our room was so clean, staff is so friendly and accommodating. Pool is great and love the location.

Very nice newly renovated spacious rooms. We really liked the design. The pool was good with plenty of chairs. Everything was clean. Staff was very friendly

Room clean and new renovat everything good

Property was nice well kept. But way to many flies in our room

Very clean room and friendly staff!

The room was noisy. The toilet seat was loose and so was the towel bar. The paint inside the bathroom door was peeling and doors are swollen.

Room was clean, maid service was excellent, all the staff were friendly

I called a few days before my check in date and asked to extend a day later. There was nothing oceanfront available to add on so I had to add to the beginning of my vacation. Which worked out fine. They offered me a handicap room the first night & I switched to my original booking the next morning for the next 2 nights. It was all done easily & smoothly. They were very nice & helpful with everything! My husband & I really wished we didn’t have to switch rooms as the handicap room was a lot bigger than my original booking of an oceanfront king room. The bathroom was super tiny & tight. The handicap bathroom was great. So much room. Really missed having that whole room. Other then that the rooms were clean. The view in our 5th floor room was great!! Just wished they had full size fridge & freezers for more convenience. The small freezer was nice it def froze stuff compared to the tiny tiny freezers in hotel fridges. The bad: Lots of red stains on shower towels & the pillowcases had stains on them. The toilet paper holder was right next to our legs wayy to close to you. Didn’t give much room to wipe lol. The bathroom was way to small for two people. This was in our king oceanfront room 511. The balconies are tight not very much room (views are nice though). The parking sucks it’s way to tight of spots. but that can’t be changed. Not to much bad about the place. Staff was great. The pool was heated I think cause it was very hot. Within walking distance of boardwalk!

The staff is extremely nice and helpful. Room was very clean. Maid was efficient and personable. She wanted us to help us have a great stay.

Right on the Wildwood Crest beach. Room was comfortable, clean and spacious. My grandchild loved the pool - nice and clean!

The pool looks very old. Needs renovations. No restaurant on the premises. The room was extremely small.

The Bristol was very dated and run down. It was expensive and certainly not worth the money. The rooms were somewhat updated and the view was amazing. The area was very noisy and busy, walls thin so you heard all the partying until well after midnight. Glad we only stayed one night.

Great place to stay. Only draw back was the bathroom toilet. The toilet was too small and too cramped. The shower was great. Everything else was wonderful!

Great Reno of an old classic…clean and convienet location right on the beach. The Sound of your neighbors is excessive, however if you get a night owl or party next to your room..but nothing earplugs can’t handle

Right on beach with ocean view; the room is big with kitchen and dining table; clean; staff is very friendly.

Beautifully updated spacious suite and steps from the beach, will definitely book again!

WiFi signal was awful Otherwise a great experience

Very clean property. Wonderful check-in staff.

Room was amazing and very clean. Staff was great and handle small issue very quickly. Looking forward to going back!!

Front desk staff were always pleasant and very welcoming. We had the first room on the first floor so the location was convenient - right next to the front office and pool, also next to the elevator so you could hear people coming and going with their luggage but nothing obnoxious. Room was clean. Restaurant right next door with a take out window for a quick breakfast was wonderful. Beach directly across the street. Would absolutely stay here again.

Very clean love it. Parking at late night not easy but the lady at the front desk very helpful nice and friendly.

Helen at the front desk went above and beyond to help us even before we checked in. I highly recommend it.

Staff are great. However, check-in & check out times are outside the average. Check-in 4pm, check out is 10am & the elevator’s broken.

The ocean view was fantastic. Check-in was a breeze, staff very friendly.

Everyone there was extremely friendly and accommodated our needs. The ladies at the desk were fantastic!!

Staff was great we got to check in early! Everyone friendly! NJ Elk week was happening , what a great group of people.

We came for a cheer competition in early April, so didn't arrive with high hopes considering it wasn’t "beach season" yet - figuring it would just be a place to sleep. The staff at the Bristol was beyond amazing and truly the hosts with the most!! Their friendliness made us feel like we were part of the family! From little touches like making sure we had lists of places to eat that they recommended and more importantly were open this time of year, to big deals like beautifully decorated, spacious, immaculately clean rooms - their pride and professionalism shined in every aspect. The views of the ocean and the proximity to the boardwalk are fabulous.

The abandoned run down huge hotel is your view for the week.

Close to beach and boardwalk

The hotel was very close to the ocean and eas to get to other places. The land next to the hotel had a standing hotel that was not in use. Eyesore.

The view of the abandoned hotel was not nice.

The hotel room had the most incredible view(ocean view room) the room was nice, beds were comfy. The hotel itself just seemed a bit old. The hotel right next to it was condemned and falling apart. Staff was nice.

My wife and I stayed one night at the Bristol during Oldies Weekend, October 19th. The room was clean, staff was friendly, and the location has an ocean view. We will be back during the summer season I am sure.

Right on the Wildwood Crest beach. Room was comfortable, clean and spacious. My grandchild loved the pool - nice and clean!

We stayed at Bristol Plaza for the BFCM festival 2025 in a 1 bdrm efficiency suite. We were very pleasantly surprised. When you see the word “motel” you typically think old and dated however the room we stayed in was very nicely updated. We loved that there were no carpets or old bed spreads. It was stocked with every we needed. The location was great, not too close to the hustle of the main boardwalk but great for walking along it or straight access to the beach. The little 50s style diner on the back side of the building was so convenient. Either grab a quick coffee at the window or sit inside and have a great breakfast! Everyone at this motel and diner were extremely friendly. Highly recommend!!

There is a lot good food options around.

No coffee bar. Had to drive every morning to WaWa or a Diner to get coffee to go. Would have been nice to have a coffee machine in the lobby.

Staff or owners were very Nice and extremely helpful with restaurant selection very clean overall very good!

Very satisfied with our one night stay at the Bristol. Nothing fancy- but clean, safe and convenient accommodation- with a view of the ocean and beach. Know that when you are staying in the Wildwoods, it’s all about the retro mid-century vibe. Personal service- and even good coffee in the morning. Kept expectations reasonable and was not disappointed. Hotel across the street being Reno’s and a part of an eyesore, but hey- that’s the price of progress. Pre-season stay- found what we needed including a great BYOB restaurant (poppi’s) with a package goods store on their corner. No complaints and would return again.

Cozy place to stay with nice rooms,heated pool and great breakfast spot next door ;))
