Fantastic hotel! Highly recommend!
Pros:

We came here to Cape May with my son and (now) fiancee for a wonderful weekend! It was billed as a birthday weekend for me, but it was really for my son to propose to his girlfriend on Sunset Beach on Saturday night (she said YES!)

The hotel front desk was very accommodating and informative. There was no parking on site upon our arrival at 4pm, but there was free street parking right behind the hotel which was super easy.

The rooms! OMG! You walk in and are just struck with a beach feel. White, bright, and gorgeous. We had a wonderful view of the ocean off our balcony.

The bed was THE most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. As a matter of fact, I’m on a hunt to now find the same mattress at home. Soft linens with fluffy pillows. I never sleep late, but this bed was the epitome of comfortable.

The bathroom was HUGE and actually had a shower stall rather than a bathtub/shower combo! My hubby and I both loved that, and the shower head had great pressure too.

The Keurig machine in the room was confusing and a bit of a hot mess. The coffee pods provided gave us very watery coffee. Either they are terrible pods, or we were just doing it wrong. BUT…there is coffee in the lobby.

We used the shuttle service to go into town and it was super convenient and we had virtually no wait. John, our shuttle driver, was fantastic and he became a wonderful tour guide during our short trips to and from town. This is a man who clearly loves his job and loves Cape May, and it was a pleasure having him as our driver.

I don’t think I will ever want to stay anywhere else other than Icona on our future Cape May trips (and we WILL be back!). It was a magical weekend!

This hotel is 1000% worth the price. When coming to Cape May, splurge a bit and stay here. You won’t be sorry!

Mediocre Experience
Pros:

Sorry to say, this property was a rip-off.l for a summer weekend at the NJ shore. Although we recognized lodging prices would be inflated at peak vacation season, for $800+ nightly we expected accommodations with a working bathroom outlet, television, and adequate on-site parking. If budget-priced, one might tolerate those inconveniences for a night or two, but at this price tier there’s surely better value to be found, even if a short drive up the GS Parkway.

Beach, restaurants, and shuttle service!
Pros:

This hotel is excellent! Rooms are great, including a kitchenette. Rooms with a balcony. The shuttle service is a HUGE plus. John was amazing and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of and got where we needed to go in a timely manner. The location is great- walking distance to many bars and restaurants, and right across from the beach. The ladies in room service were very kind- Ana was so nice and very accommodating. Highly recommended!

Their smoke area wasn’t relaxing no chairs or protection from rain and wind
Pros:

The shuttle men and man who took out chairs and umbrella to the beach were very nice including the valet man

Cons:

The two ladies that worked at the front desk were rude, and the housekeepers didn’t speak English and didn’t understand English, and the bathroom was dirty with hair everywhere including my towels and in the shower, toilet and sink

Pros:

I thought the facility was very good, clean and well located. I would stay again. It was across the street from the Grand Hotel which we have stayed multiple times. It's location makes it easy to get to beach and if you have to travel it's easier getting in and out of town. It's not far from Washington Mall and restaurants.

Cons:

Parking parking parking. We ended up having to park at a meter due to limited parking. If you are ok with using shuttle to get around it may not be an issue at all. This has been an issue at most of the hotels we stayed at in Cape May. But was a little more of an issue here.
