We enjoyed the Victorian-era design and charm of the Chalfonte, especially the wrap-around balcony with rocking chairs and tables. It was an easy walk from the hotel to the Convention Center and the beach.

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.

The main building was closed for off season, we were given a room in a house converted to a hotel, we can hear the neighbors talking, I hit my toes many times going to the bathroom, very disappointed, not what your website advertised, please review your hotels and confirm their services. I have to be careful with Expedia selection in the future.

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!
