Hotel was fine. Nothing special. Did not like the $100 resort fee that they needed after already paying for the room on Expedia.

A Perfect Stay at Hotel Icona, Cape May Our recent stay at Hotel Icona in Cape May, New Jersey, was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were met with warm smiles and a seamless check-in process that set the tone for a fantastic getaway. The staff here truly go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcome and cared for. The hotel’s attention to detail is impeccable, from the beautifully maintained property to the cozy, well-appointed rooms. It’s clear that guest comfort is a top priority. Every interaction we had with the staff—from the front desk to housekeeping—was friendly, professional, and genuine. They made us feel like valued guests at every turn. The location is perfect, offering easy access to Cape May’s stunning beaches and charming town center, while still providing a peaceful retreat. Whether it was enjoying a quiet moment on the balcony or relaxing in the hotel’s inviting common spaces, the atmosphere was one of calm and luxury. Hotel Icona made our trip to Cape May unforgettable. If you’re looking for exceptional service, thoughtful amenities, and a truly relaxing experience, this is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

Hotel/room was immaculate. My room did not have an ocean view; it overlooked a residential street which was fine. Very nice kitchenette that I didn't use. My only complaint was an additional "resort fee" upon arrival--the shuttle van service, heated pool, beach chairs and umbrella are seasonal amenities not available in December, so I essentially paid for parking and Internet, which seemed excessive in the off season.
