Perfect stay in Cape May!

My visit to Cape May was to visit family and my stay at the Star made it a perfect couple of days! Everything was great and the service was excellent! Check in was a breeze and the turn down service was a little luxury.

Came here last minute. I live locally and our electricity was out. The room which they upgraded for us was charming. I had a stressful week and was just getting over being sick. Had a great nights sleep and felt totally relaxed. Thank you for the wonderful experience. We will be back

Always a great experience with this hotel group. Have stayed across the street at Congress Hall a number of times and this "motel" version was absolutely perfect for a winter weekend getaway. Would definitely return.
