Top Cape May Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel of Cape May

Grand Hotel of Cape May

8/10 Good
"Family of 4 with 2 teenagers. Really enjoyed the place. Rooms were nice and kitchenette had a nice size fridge for storing leftovers, water, and snacks. Found the double beds were a little cramped. Would've been nicer with queen-sized beds. Staff kept the place very clean. Friendly and always accomodating. Had a big rain storm so the in-door pool, game room, and restaurant kept us entertained and fed. Little higher cost but after staying at other places in Cape May felt the price was justified given what we got in return."

"We really enjoyed our stay here. Loved that there was an elevator so anyone on the 2nd or 3rd floor didn't have to lug luggage up stairs. Really appreciated the free beach passes, the lovely pool, and the live music at the Rusty Nail. Everything was just easy and relaxing."
