A delightful one night stay in a quaint old victorian era hotel. We stayed in the Southern House which is used in winter time I guess. Nicely appointed old property reminescent of many years ago in downtown cape may, near the beach and convention hall. Definitely recommend if you dont mind winding stairs.
My daughter and granddaughter live in Cape May. Definitely my go to place. Iâve stayed twice now and itâs perfect for me considering price and location.
The room was a nice size in the Southern Quarters of the Chalfonte hotel. The bathroom was beautiful. This is quite an old house and of course like any older home you donât have a completely level floor, we kind of expect that. The one thing that was really disconcerting in the room was the antique dresser, which was leaning against the wall and had wheels on one side and not on the other so it was quite tilted, it gave the optical illusion that the room was sloping downward especially when lying on the bed. It was a beautiful antique and if that were fixed it would give a much better feel to the room.
Very nice off season stay. While I donât mind, the booking site does not indicate that off season you are in a different building and the main hotel is closed. I was disappointed by that but we still had a nice stay. Great price, old building with character, and good location.
The room was clean upon arrival. They definitely need to invest in some updated heating options though. Our room was between 51-55 degrees the entire time. It should not be that cold in there.
Southern quarters are small I would recommend only two people and the sink was not in the bathroom. Otherwise everything was clean and painless. My fiancee and I had a great weekend trip.
We stayed in the Southern Quarters over Christmas. The cottage had heat but our room never warmed up above 57 degrees. The staff did provide a space heater that we put in the bathroom. The cottage had a small kitchen with a coffee maker, microwave, and refrigerator.
Overall we had a very pleasant time in Cape May. Yes the room was cold but very comfortable. It made for a a memorable Christmas.
Our stay was very nice, everything was exactly what we wanted. Our only complaint is that since there is a bar attached to the property, it got a bit noisy at night. Would stay again, though!
