Beautiful Inn built in 1894. Across the street from the beach , wrap around front porch, pool, friendly and helpful staff . Close to shops and restaurants. I will most definitely be returning! Thank you for a wonderful stay .

Shelia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

In the moment we arrived, it was a very pleasant day. We loved being able to park right across the street and get beach tags starting at 11 AM the day that we checked in. Our room was available early as well. The staff was very kind and we enjoyed the toiletries and white robes in the rooms. The lobby makes for a comfortable place to relax in the evening or on the wraparound porch. The location is fantastic and walkable to all of the main points of interest in Cape May. Would definitely recommend!

The Inn has great potential but certainly needs updating - bathrooms are lacking. Hotel staff and dining staff were wonderful. Food was great. Decorating was not what I would have expected in an old inn. The building has great personality - furnishings none!

This was the first time staying at the Inn of Cape May. The staff was pleasant and helpful especially the bell hop. Food was delicious. Parking was easy and attendant was very nice. The overall vibe and history of the inn added to the wonderful experience.

10/10 Excellent

From the moment you walk through the doors and are greeted by the super friendly, smiling staff , you are instantly transported to another gentler , peaceful time. Every single staff I encountered was friendly, smiling helpful. The lady at the front desk , I called her angel in my mind because that’s what she was , was so helpful. I loved Nicky who made my morning coffee . The room was clean , super clean , white and airy . As I descended the gorgeous stair of this lovely dowager hotel , I could feel myself transported back to the 1800s , I loved the drinks on the porch they were. delicious . Only regret .. leaving.i give this truly beautiful hotel 5 stars and I thank the staff for a memorable stay.

I really liked the location of the hotel! It was perfect for our first time staying in cape May. The restaurant was also very nice and made getting a dinner easy and in the morning the coffee bar was very convenient. The view from an ocean view room was fantastic and not loud like in some similar areas. We only thought the bathroom needed attention with new fixtures ie the handle in the shower was loose but it was nothing unexpected in a building like this and did not necessarily warrant someone from maintenance coming in to our room, but we did tell the front desk. I think this a common theme here, but overall I still liked the bathroom especially with the walk in closet.

2/10 Terrible

No hot water. Took 25 minutes to get a simple 5 dollar cup of coffee. The rooms were very bland for a historical Victorian hotel. The hotel needs simple maintenance and some tlc…

Russell, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

I used to love coming here and had been staying here for 20 years. Every morning I went into the bathroom to wash over a basin pulled out from the wall, how it happened I have no idea, but it should have been repaired before the room was rented. The hook on the wall had been taken out and haphazardly installed again with the two Philips head screws hanging out of the holes. Room 401. It was quiet and the bedding and towels appeared to be clean. I ate there one night and the food was fine. The bartender, however, had no idea how to make some fairly standard drinks and the wait on the porch was sometimes terrible. I may go elsewhere next time. The beach tags and chair and umbrella have always been a plus with the room offer,however.
