The room was nice and very clean, only downside is the poor wi-fi signal stregth so much so that my mobil network was faster and the remote for the cable hooked up to tv wasn't connected to work the volume or power on/off the tv so I had to get up each time to do so.

What a cool hotel. The location was perfect - halfway between the shopping and the beach - and the atmosphere was really nice. The hotel is definitely older but in that intangible historic way. We had a small room for a quick weekend getaway and it was just perfect. It seems like they are slowly renovating throughout the hotel so I hope they don't strip away the character. The small winding hallways and the peculiar room layouts (including small closets and sinks in the bedrooms) all made the place that much more unique. I felt that I was on the set of an old movie. The Magnolia Room is closed for the season but the King Edward Bar was really a hidden gem. The food was phenomenal (my wife is vegetarian and they had some good options) - he pimento cheese, cauliflower risotto, and roasted oysters were all excellent - but the kitchen closes early. We stopped by both nights and it looked dead but was absolutely PACKED for the late night crowd. What a fun hotel, I am definitely going to make this my base whenever I am staying in Cape May.

There is a small kitchen area with a fridge, coffee pot, and tea pot, no other amenities available. The room was warm which was nice with the cold winds outside. We did not interact with any staff members except via phone call and they were extremely friendly, we did visit during the off season which is why we didnt see any staff members, but the room was very clean and cozy. One thing to note is that this hotel and many others in this area are historic, so no elevators and many steps, very charming but if you are older or have balance or mobility issues just be cautious of where you book and ask for a first floor room when and if possible! Just a heads up.

Our stay was truly enjoyable, starting with the lovely and helpful staff. Our room was clean, and we found the hotel itself to be historically very interesting. My husband and I enjoyed our time, meeting a few other guests who added to the visit's charm. We also had the pleasure of sharing the night with a wedding party that held their reception there.

In an excellent location. Within walking distance to shopping and dining. It is an older hotel which has some charm but it could use a facelift. We also had issues with the bathroom drain not draining.
