Grand Hotel of Cape May
Pros:

The management of the Grand Hotel generously and graciously offered discounted rooms for locals who lost power during the blizzard. We are so grateful for a lovely room and warmth. I recommend this hotel.

LOTS of love needed to room before summer prices!
Pros:

Decided to do a quick little getaway to check out Cape May. Decided on The Grand Hotel since basically oceanfront and decent rate for our room. We booked the ocean view townhouse efficiency suite. The location of the hotel was nice and was a bit away from where more traffic would be in the busy months. But not sure, never been there before. Beach looked nice and large. Enjoyed the town itself.

The downfall was the room. We were told it was an “updated room”, but our room definitely needed lots of love especially before summer where the rates are exorbitantly high. (A week in July around $6k) I know the place is an older hotel, but for us the sound of kids running in the hall was super loud and I could hear the neighbors all the time. So, if you want quiet bring ear plugs or something. But in the summer I guess you expect that with lots of families. We are older with children all grown.

We really enjoyed the food that we had the 2 days we were visiting Cape May. We even went to Wildwood for one night. Definitely a town we will visit again.

Great romantic weekend to celebrate valentines
Pros:

Staff was very friendly. Room was nice except I felt when my husband and I went to sleep we rolled towards the middle of the bed. We were disappointed the jacuzzi was not working. We both have bad backs and really look forward to using that. Food was good and bar was great

A Grand Experience at the Grand Hotel
Pros:

The Grand Hotel in Cape May NJ is exceptional. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and proactive staff (concierge, front desk, housekeeping) that offers personalized attention for all our needs. The front desk remembers our preferences and provides tailored personalized attention. They have an immaculate indoor pool, a one-of-a-kind feature and a high-end restaurant where Chef Nick is known for his crab cakes and lasagna.

Great place to stay even in frigid temperatures!!
Pros:

We stayed here to celebrate our anniversary weekend, not knowing that with wind chills it would be minus degrees! It was still a fun stay though we didn’t get to explore like we wanted! The hotel was so clean, the room very comfortable and we had a very relaxing time. We didn’t have to leave the hotel at all because Hemingway’s was right downstairs and we thoroughly enjoyed every meal we had there! We definitely want to come back again during peak season where we can use all the beach amenities this beautiful place has to offer!
