We stayed at this lovely Inn in Sept 2024, the weather was gorgeous. The Inn is charming, the staff was EXCELLENT! The bar was quaint, bartender was awesome! music nightly. The food was very good. Delish Quiche and a cappuccino in the am. Nice lunch menu and dinner was 5 star! Did not mind at all using the stairs, we were on the 4th floor, we loved the walk up, more should. Easy living for a week. We will be returning next summer that's for sure.

We love the old style hotels and this is one. This was our second stay because we had a nice experience the first time. This time however, our room was extremely small. This would have been acceptable except for the condition of the bathroom. A small shelf was not secured to the wall and there was no mirror in the bathroom. This was brought to the attention of the front desk the next morning but was never addressed by the time we left the following day.

The Cape May Inn was an older style and it adds to its charm. Walking distance to the shops and places to eat. We would not hesitate to go back again.

Everything was awesome, but I suggest perhaps a picture or two of a lighthouse, boat, beach, or ocean on the room walls. This is since I am a little claustrophobic when there is nothing on the wall to break up the color scheme a little.

The property is old, so therefore has lots of character quirks & floors that slope & windows that don't close quite right, etc. We paid the extra for an ocean view & were disappointed that unless you were standing at 1 of the 2 windows, one of which had an AC unit in it we weren’t expecting to hear all night, you couldn't see the ocean. We thought we'd be able to sit in chairs and look at it out our window. Nope. Spending the extra money for the view wasn't worth it. There were no room darkening curtains, just blinds. That's sad. Our room floor wasn't vacuumed well as I was stepping on sand from the moment we got there. But the bed seemed cleaned & was comfortable. Apparently each room at the inn is uniquely laid out, no two are alike. The Ocean 7 restaurant on site... huh. Both times we wanted to get a table, once for dinner & once for late lunch, the hostess was less than friendly. We went somewhere else for dinner. For lunch, there were lots of open seats on "the porch", yet she made couples sit at a small 2 person table even if they requested a 4 person one, rather rudely. One couple even walked out after waiting almost 10 mins & never saw a waitress after being seated. Food was ok. Cocktails drinks were good! We were surprised by the live band music that was there. Music itself was good, but we went for peace & quiet, so we couldn't sit quietly on the porch nor in our room until they left at 10pm. We would give the inn another chance based on the other nice staff!

For this price only the proximity to the beach is worthwhile. Rooms are very small furniture spartan. Not a room to spend anytime in No amenities for bathroom - ?? Fascial hand soap discontinued. Limited towels Breakfast $8 coupon doesn’t go far . Better to go elsewhere for these prices and accommodations

Ok stay but feel that there are better options.
The location was great and we had a room with a view of the ocean. There is free parking right across the street. Our room was on the 4th floor. The stairs were easy to use, and the elevator is very old and you need to call for assistance with it. The room was small and the floor slanted so much so the head of the bed was on blocks. My husband dropped chapstick and it rolled all the way across the room. The bathroom is very small with no counter space what so ever. Not even room to set a plastic cup down. There is a pool but it is shared with other hotels. I would suggest finding another place and we would not stay again based on price and what you got for the price. We did not have a bad experience but just feel would could have done better.

Old inn with lots of charm. Could use more attention to details with room decor and amenities. Staff was attentive but spread thin at the bar/restaurant. Rooms do not come standard with refrigerators so if needed it will need to be requested for an extra charge.

The Inn is a pleasant place to stay. Like most B&B and inns in Cape May it was built in the 1800's. So it is old and not everything is perfect. There were at least two handimen working all day doing maintenance on one thing or another; it was not a bother. The hotel staff were excellent- very attentive and offering assistance. The food options (coffee bar, porch/bar/pub, and full service restaurant) were very good. The rooms and common spaces were as clean as they could be. The room we stayed in was very small (is what it is) but could have been better furnished. All in all it was a pleasant stay and if we were to visit Cape May again we would definitely consider the Inn of Cape May.
