Top Cape May Hotel Reviews

Montreal Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"It was great place"

La Mer Beachfront Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at La Mer in early September & had a wonderful stay. We booked a room in a non- renovated portion of the property. Our room was older but extremely clean & comfortable. We took full advantage of the amenities and really enjoyed ourselves. We went to the private beach one day & the onsite pool the next day. We ate at the Pier House & the food & service were excellent. ALL the staff were warm & welcoming & we will happily return."

Coastal Estate

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location and great accommodations. Only complaint would be the pillows were too thick and the room was not as dark as we prefer. Picky I know but this is the 2nd time we have stayed so that’s not enough for us to go elsewhere. We get to Cape May several times a year and the place we typically stay is now over 700 a night which is asinine. It’s nice to find a place like the Cape for a stay!!"

Mahalo Cape May

10/10 Excellent

"Would definitely stay here again! Room was modern and up to date, clean and the kitchenette also a 2 burner stove top which was handy for a quick breakfast. The location was great right across from the beach with chairs and umbrellas available along with staff to take and set up for you on the beach. Close to everything and free shuttle available! Highly recommend."

Congress Hall

8/10 Good

"Everything was great and we were enjoying our stay when, on the second full day there, we were told that no beach umbrellas were going to be available, only the lounges and towels (or cabanas for $100/day). No explanation was given. We assumed it was because there was a little stronger breeze than the day before, and there were no lifeguards on the hotel’s part of the beach. I want to mention that the other hotels and condos around us were allowing umbrellas to be used on the beach that day. The temperature was in the mid eighties so it was not possible to sit in the sun for any length of time without an umbrella. We ended up sitting at the pool the whole day. I suppose it would be good to know beforehand what the hotel’s policy is on this. With only a two full day stay, the beach was our main focus, so this was a big disappointment."
