Guests say
Guests loved the historic charm and excellent location of the hotel, with many amenities within walking distance and beautiful views. The staff was frequently praised for their friendliness and exceptional service, which contributed positively to the guests' experiences. However, some guests noted issues such as noise disturbances, particularly from the Boiler Room, and an inflexible change policy that left a negative impression. Overall, while there were minor complaints, the hotel's charm and service made for a positive experience.

Pros (+) Over many occasions, I witnessed the staff going above and beyond expectations of guests. From making sure all the rocking chairs lined up to providing excellent cocktail service, it is clear that the whole staff is trained and believes in great customer service.
Cons (-) The hotel and grounds were top shelf. Nothing could have been better at Congress Hall. Cape May in January is understandable quiet; which is quite nice. However, many if not most the restaurants and businesses are closed.

However, a woman was doing the bookkeeping and we asked if was possible to ...
Cons (-) The fitness center is probably one of the least used amenities in any hotel, so the offerings aren't very robust. This holds true here as well. Two treadmills, an elliptical, a bike, and a bench with a rack of hand weights. My advice, pack a resistance band to beef up your options. It takes less space in your luggage than sock.
