We enjoyed the ambience of the great old building. Only there for two nights, but we ate our meals in the Blue Pig Tavern. Food was wonderful. Ideal location right across the street from the beach. Washington Street Mall was across from the side of the building.

Another wonderful experience at Congress Hall. The staff was outstanding, our room was great with a view of the ocean. Can’t say enough good things about this place. There is nowhere else in Cape May we would rather stay. One recommendation, do the Hotel Tour. The information we learned about Congress Hall, both past and present, was fascinating.

First time staying there, after visiting its restaurants for years. 10/10 experience. The bathrooms in the rooms felt modern and clean. Not that I was surprised, but I was kind of surprised hahah. Great experience. Especially in October when it was still warm enough to sit outside.

There is no coffee in the room. Our room had a big hump in the floor. I know it is old. The fridge was hidden and there was no microwaves in the rooms. The TV was not a smart TV. The staff was extremely helpful and professional.

$1700 for two nights, had no meals at the hotel. Our room gave you a choice: be hot and clammy or cold and clammy. There was a swail in the floor you needed to traverse to get to the bathroom. The desk staff were professionally cool unlike prior visits where they were friendly and even remembered you the next day. We've decided it was our last visit, no value for the dollar! There are other locations in Cape May.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Congress Hall. The hotel was impeccably clean, the staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was truly unforgettable—rich with historic charm and character that made the entire experience feel special. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to the beach and all that Cape May has to offer. A truly beautiful property that we would highly recommend and look forward to visiting again!
