    Sitting porch
    Darcy V.

    For the most part the staff & owners did a lot to make us feel comfortable. We had never stayed in a B& B so we didn't have anything to compare to. However I'll lay out the pros & cons of our stay in December Pros: Breakfast at 9am allowed us to meet others & talk about things to do Afternoon tea was nice to be able to grab a few snacks & hang out on the closed in porch or dining rooms. Pool is heated & open 24 hours a day. Place is decorated very ornate. It was pretty inside. Staff friendly & helpful. We felt comfortable walking around house. Cons: It needs a little upkeep & updating From outside it lacked beauty we were expecting & maybe a nice paint job with contrasting colors would be fun like the house next door We arrived for Breakfast at 9am & it was lukewarm. I think it would have been easier to have chafing dishes to choose the food from so less waste. For example My pancakes where too cold to eat by time I finished eggs. Our room #9 was drafty, smelled like chlorine & needed handrails for stairs to jacuzzi which was slippery to get out of. The bigger question is would we stay again? Maybe we will try the newer structure behind the main house? Or we might just try another place for comparison. By the way my hubby gave the place a rating of 4.

    Pros: Our room was located not in a historical mansion, but in a new additional building. We found out that we dodged a bullet, because main building did not have AC(in May), so it can get pretty hot. We, on the other hand, had a great working AC. We also had a tiny fireplace that we loved. TV in the room was good and had cable tv as well as DVD or blue ray player(we didn't use it). Internet was working great. Bathroom had a giant double shower and two person jacuzzi tub that we used and loved it. The room also had a mini fridge that was useful and a ceiling fan as well. Free parking was great addition in this busy beach town and an option to have a bike for free is quite convenient. Cons: The staff is stiff and unfriendly. Don't expect them to smile at any point of your visit. It seems like they don't enjoy their job and get annoyed pretty easily. As much as we loved our jacuzzi, it lacked a handle bar, so be very careful about getting out. It had many signs about not using oils, bubble bath, various fine amounts for not complying with their rules YET no sign about slippery surface and zero handle bars. They have ice dispenser on a first floor, yet ZERO liners for buckets and we all know ice buckets are top 3 germ carriers in hotel industry. Ice bucket looked dirty as well. Pool needs deep clean AND complete water change. Sides were looking like they growing barnacles! They don't have a lifeguard, it means they don't regulate chlorine levels or do regular cleaning, which shows and it's not smart way to cut corners. Our room had a dirty carpet. Weird choice for a beach hotel. The mansion has so much potential, but cutting corners is not a way to go. We payed almost $800 for two night stay and expected superb service. Starting with soaps- unhealthy ingredients and hair products with added perfume=chemicals. No clean towels provided, unless you go and ask, but it's 50/50 if you find someone working. They are big on "we work hard so leave a tip for a cleaning staff". Seems like a nonsense, when you have to go and call and get towels yourself. So maybe hotel staff can tip me, huh. Brunch was worse that at Hyatt hotel in Dewey- tasteless eggs, sugar soaked French toast, expired, brown pineapple, two mini sausages that tasted like cardboard, orange juice from concentrate and burned coffee. Everything is served in paper plates, cups, plastic silverware. What a waste! Seems like Covid is still excuse to serve everything in reusable tableware, yet not one of the staff was wearing a mask, there are no stations to get any antibacterial liquid and no gloves on servers. I had to go and ask for ketchup to add some life to my underseasoned scrambled eggs, only to run into a very unhappy lady who felt annoyed, but pleaded with me and gave me one tiny Heinz ketchup square. Thanks a lot. Afternoon tea is pathetic thing and should not be mentioned- they have the same burned coffee, hot water, soda cans, tiny plastic containers with grapes and tiny sliver of cake from Walmart or CVS that lasts 100 years and never goes bad. Ew. So yeah. Not gross like you wanna leave the same night, but not amazing like you wanna return. Simply mediocre, overpriced building with some perks (like bikes) and some difficulties(like not getting skin disease from the pool). We will not be back.

    I stayed here last week and I will never stay here again . We stayed in room 9 in the original part of the house . The room smelled musty and of mildew as soon as we went in . They had a dehumidifier in the room turned on continuously and no ac in the room or window ac . First night I stayed there temperature went up to 78on the thermostat. I was sweating all night and couldn't breathe well . I complained the following morning to the girl on duty and she gave me a fan for the room . The room is in desperate need of Renovation . Peeling wallpaper , no handrail for jacuzzi tub which I slipped into the first night , dusty broken furniture and heating vents , dusty curtains hanging over bed , blood stained towel in bathroom . No antibacterial soap anywhere. Breakfast was terrible . Coffee burnt every morning . Bathroom floor was sticky , shower stall had sand or grit in it . Only nice thing was the indoor pool which we used at night . Good temperature but made our skin very itchy . I don't recommend anyone staying in this particular room at all . Stay in the newer suites if you must stay here at all . Next time I will stay at congress on the beach . Also staff is not friendly . They truly seem not to care for upkeep of this facility . No one was ever around during the afternoon to ask any questions to.

    Very nice stay.... We had room 4 a flight up with a few more steps not too bad for lugging luggage. The bed was comfy and the bathroom modern. I didn't detect any noise from other guests so that was a plus. Conviently located with a CVS within easy walking distance and shops in the immediate area to explore. We would awake to the aromas of bacon and muffins in the morning...which seemed off for such a large place until I realized a fan in a third floor window in the stairwell was set to exhaust and pulling the yumminess from the kitchen. Flowers and cheese plate (and maybe other goodies) can be awaiting your arrival. My only complain is the fact the batteries were dead in the remote and we figured it out too late to bother anyone. But....its a bnb who needs TV

    *550th Review* Choosing a rating for this place was tough... Want to gain the experience of staying in an 1800s mansion for bed and breakfast? Then look no further than this place. This is located only minutes away from downtown and the main beach by foot (2-3 miles away from Sunset Beach). We were checked in by the friendly owner. After that, our 2-night experience began. All of the public areas were on the 1st floor. All of the other floors consisted of guest rooms. The nice front porch contained comfy chairs & mini tables for those who wanted to relax & socialize. 3 dining rooms were available for breakfast and snack times. The lobby area also had some comfy chairs & mini tables for those who wanted to relax & socialize. The living room contained a TV and board games for those who wanted to play. The kitchen was open 24/7 for those who needed water and lemonade. But the kitchen is closed during breakfast and snack times due to the cooking and preparations. The indoor pool area and outdoor back porch is in the rear. A small and tight parking lot is on the side of the building. Our room was clean. It contained a double bed and a single one. Additional drawers were available for storage, along with a closet. An A/C was operational by the window, with extra fans available. A flat-screen TV broadcasted DirectTV channels. We slept flawlessly on the 2nd night. Our sink was outside the bathroom. Inside the bathroom was the toilet and shower. Numerous mini shampoo bottles and cheap & easy to break soap bars were wrapped and ready to be utilized. There were two shower heads available. Breakfast is served at 9AM each morning, and the servings vary per day. However, everyone starts with fresh pineapple, orange juice, and either coffee, tea, and/or hot cocoa (mixed by yourself). One morning, we had corn muffins, waffles, egg quiche, and sausages. Everything tasted fine, but felt that the starch items were from a mixture. The sausages, however, were excellent and had NO fillers. The next morning we had pancakes, bacon, and everything else that was the same from the previous day. Pancakes were fine, but also felt that it was from a mixture. The bacon was superior as it had NO fat or fillers. Syrup and butter was also available daily. Snack time was at 3PM each day, and servings varied daily. One day, they had a Betty Crocker yellow cake with choco frosting, watermelon slices, and veggie sticks. Overall, that was okay. The next day, they had pound cake, pepperoni, cheese, & crackers. As a fan of salty snacks, I consumed a lot of the delicious pepperoni & crackers with some cheese. Yum!! Lemonade and tea was available during those times. I've always wanted to bike around in a nice shore town. This place granted my wish by providing FREE cruiser bikes to utilize for their guests. When functioning properly, I was able to bike around certain parts of Cape May while burning off the calories. You also get a lock with a code so you can park & lock your bike and walk wherever you like. That was convenient. In the nighttime, we relaxed in the 24/7 indoor heated pool area. This may be the only B&B that has an indoor pool facility, thus making this place quite unique. The area itself was quite warm from the heat, and the pool temperature was 85 degrees. The pool itself was comfortable to swim and relax in. WIFI was hit or miss. Now for the negativity... The 1st night was a bit noisy for 2 hours, and we didn't know why (-1). Halfway back to the B&B from Sunset Beach, the chain on my bike broke off suddenly, and couldn't be reconnected. I didn't mind walking 1 mile, but it added more travel time going back. It always happens at the least you expect it. (-0.5). :( Apparently they don't serve milk during breakfast, which was very weird. When I asked for milk on the 2nd day for my hot cocoa, they ran out. One employee even joked about running out of this. They had some for that on the 1st day, though. I guess to them, milk isn't a good part of a complete breakfast (-0.5). Considering the pros and cons, I'd say this was a decent experience. If you don't mind the cons or breakfast items coming from mixtures, then you'll probably enjoy staying there. When staying here, be open minded about socializing with others. If someone wants to have a nice conversation with you here, then roll with it. Enjoy your stay, and don't be anti-social!

    Is this supposed to look "shabby chic", it just looks neglected.

    This is our 4th time staying at The Wilbraham Mansion. It will likely be our last. We stayed Friday and Saturday nights. The staff was nice enough, but we were not pleased with the room. The bubble feature for the bottom of the jacuzzi didn't even work, neither did the "self clean". The one drawer on the armoire had no drawer pulls. A drawer on the small dresser/end table had one drawer pull hanging off. The sink leaked from the bottom of the faucet and the sink base was cracked and peeling. Ironically, they are building 4 new rooms on the first floor of the back building (where we stayed). I realize that it's "off season" but the place was packed on Saturday night and I expected more from such a historic place in Cape May.

    Our king sized bed. Super comfy. The not impressed with the comforter

    Very pricey but so worth it. My bf and I came here to celebrate an anniversary. We booked a suite because those had ensuite jacuzzi. The room was spacious and the bathroom the size of a small room. It was gorgeous and exactly what we needed, to relax. They have a nice indoor pool that we also relaxed in. They have bike racks and cool bikes to use cuz gorgeous Cape May is a very bikable town. The breakfast was hosted in gorgeous setting but honestly was okay. Decent enough for complimentary, the pancakes the first morning were meh but the French toast this morning was really good. The room was clean and cool, we could control the thermostat. There was a book that listed various things to do. There was an afternoon tea service with pastries and tea. Definitely recommend coming here for a romantic getaway. Oh parking in the parking lot is tight, but it seems that cape may has no street parking laws as my car was legit in front of the main entrance all weekend.

    Front of B&B

    An amazing place to stay, the sweets building is amazing and all the rooms have 2 persons jacuzzi tubs and 2 person showers. They also have a heated indoor pool open 24 hours a day. An amazing staff and great food.

The star was the Blueberry Stuffed French Toast casserole - like OMG insanely delicious!!! I kind of had three servings! Many other perfect choices too, like English muffins, fruit, yogurt, granola).

This was our first visit to this charming B&B and it was truly a positive & memorable experience. It's located within the heart of Cape May, so walking distance to a myriad of restaurants and shops and only one block from the beach. The amenities are unbeatable - beach cruiser bikes, beach chairs and towels, lots of outdoor porches to relax on and read, and an outdoor shower. The breakfasts are delicious (we had an egg/cheese entree with ham the first day & a stuffed French toast with sausage patty the 2nd day) The daily morning and afternoon baked goods were delicious (especially the assorted breads with homemade strawberry jam!) The owners (Doug & AnnaMarie) are extremely warm and welcoming and go above and beyond & to ensure every guest felt safe during the COVID pandemic (great social distancing, mask awareness, plastic shields as needed & hand sanitizer). A well stocked 24 hr kitchen with plentiful bottled water as well. Lots of extras that you don't find in other B&Bs. They also immediately alerted us when my wife left her pocketbook behind at breakfast. You can tell that the management truly cares about making this place a great experience for their guests without cutting any corners. It's truly a beautiful property with lots of outdoor space and charming rooms each unique & all very well-maintained, extremely clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Nothing but wonderful things to say about the Queen Victoria & we hope to be back again soon!

    The Harrison - Dirty water in sink

    The Harrison

    (33 reviews)

    For starters, the Harrison/Pharos Inn does not have a front desk. When you show up for your stay,…read moreyou are not told where to park to unload. Eventually you get out and ring a bell. Someone that is working in the back (housekeeping or kitchen staff), comes to let you in and hands you the paperwork and a quick synopsis of your stay. There is no one to help you with your bags up to the 2nd or 3rd floors. One of the reasons that I chose the Harrison was for its location. For this reason I would give the Inn 3.5 stars rather than 3, but that is not an option. The location was perfect. Close to the center of town and the beach. One could park their car and walk or bike everywhere. However, the photos are misleading. I thought that I was booking a B&B with the old home charm, but one that was also impeccably updated. The rooms had white bedding which is similar to upscale hotels, however other parts of the room were subpar. The carpets need to be replaced. In the hallways and in our room they were filthy (stained and discolored all over). The bathroom shower was a prefabricated shower unit which was underwhelming for the price, but what was most annoying was that the shower regulator was loose and difficult to adjust. The water did not warm up for a few minutes and dripped while in the off position. The TV was small and too far away for the remote to work from the bed which is the only spot in the room that you would watch it from. Perhaps it needed batteries. I suspected this stay experience was going to be different than what I am accustomed to because I was contacted a few days prior to our stay exclusively via an AI messenger. Any questions that AI could not answer, the AI messenger had to escalate the question to the front desk (which did not exist at the inn). If you want to speak with a live person instead of going back and forth with the AI messenger, you have to call the number listed on the website. You are calling a general number. The Harrison/Pharos is a part of a conglomerate of many hotels in Cape May. You must listen to all of the options, and finally pick a number to punch to hopefully speak with a person. I chose housekeeping because there was not a front desk option. I called about how to work the TV because there were no instructions. The housekeeping person was not successful at helping over the phone. We were going out to dinner and after 8PM there is no one to help or stop by. We ended up figuring out some of the issues ourselves and then gave up. In addition, the network to get on the wifi was different than what was listed in the paperwork. Maybe as AI becomes more prevalent, people will become more accepting because we are forced to. In the future, I will make sure to avoid such places as long as I can. I have been to many B&Bs in the past and one of the perks is a fantastic breakfast. The breakfast was good, but not great. The afternoon tea was ok. The cake was dry. If I were eating at a restaurant, I would not go back. We paid for early entry to the room on the day we arrived. I was told that they could take our bags if we arrived early and the room was not ready. We chose to pay to get in two hours early. This is something new to me, but I did it anyway, If we had not, I do not know what they would have done with our bags. There was no one to help. For the amount of money that we paid for the room (about $600 per night after all fees), I expected more. I chose the place because of its location, old house charm, and what I thought was its clean, updated (not dingy) insides. The photos are misleading. Definitely not worth the price we paid. Even at a lower price point for the weekend of June 19th and 20th, much of my dissatisfaction would still be warranted.

For those looking for vintage Victorian charm, you will be pleased with this property. The location cannot be beat, the entire historic district is a very short walk. The beach is not much farther. We stayed in the Renaissance room, a very comfy and roomy king. These were definitely two of the best night's sleep we've had in recent times! The breakfast service here is really excellent with several menu choices. They will also accommodate a range of custom requests (obviously within reason). The staff was great throughout our stay and everything is well thought out. One caveat here is the no parking on premises, there are however parking options close by. We were able to get free on street parking a short walk away. Loading and unloading at the property is also easy. Highly recommend!!

There's quite a bit to do in the area, including different trolley tours (we did the ghost one) which are a ton of fun!

I ended up driving in but it's the thought that counts. It's not every day that people offer things they don't have to do. The beach is clean and felt really private in October. I'm sure the summer is more packed, but it can't be that bad because Cape May itself is just beautiful. There are restaurants, clothes, souvenirs and so much more to do on that strip. I can't wait to go back there.

    A wonderful place for a getaway in Cape May centrally located so that you can walk to everything if…read moreyou want to! What a beautiful mansion with impeccable grounds & an inviting porch to lounge around on! When selecting your room, if the room is not on the first floor, note that the stairs are quite steep & can be a little difficult to navigate if you are carrying a lot of things or wearing high heels! We stayed in the famous Red Room on the second floor, room 3. It was a lovely room with very high ceiling & a very unusual painting. The bed was very comfortable & I liked that we could control the temperature in our room. The sink for the bathroom is outside the bathroom with hardly any countertop just so you know. Excellent breakfast - you do have to make your selection the night before which is a little difficult since sometimes I want something different when I wake up. food was very good & excellent service. I think a fire pit would be a great thing to add to the property. Other than that, we had an enjoyable experience & I greatly recommend this place!

    Great stay. Nice AC. Great walk in Shower. The view from…read morethe Balcony was amazing. The Room lacked a TV remote though.... It just seemed like a better Class of people staying here. No Chain smokers constantly running in and out slamming doors. The lack of Children present made it even better. I was sold once I saw that. No wonder why the place sells out months in advance.

    Not that this place needs any more accolades, but why not. Also not sure how it doesn't rate closer…read moreto 5 stars because it's absolutely deserving! As a Bonvoy member, I really don't get to branch out from the mundane, generic hotel scene when I travel (almost every week ‍), but in the sleepy little Coast Guard town of Cape May, NJ, I had no Marriott options. While Yelping for another option, I came across this absolute gem. Just the picture online drew me in, and the price seemed outrageously low (guessing off season). Booked rooms for myself and some colleagues and couldn't have been happier! Of course I took the ocean view room with a balcony, claw foot tub, turn of the century charm, etc. The room was spacious, warm, comfortable, and I literally melted into the perfect king sized bed. Had a cup of coffee on the balcony in the morning listening to the gentle sounds of the ocean and gulls. Unfortunately due to my work schedule I couldn't stay for the comped breakfast in the gorgeous dining room, but next time for sure! The staff, as well, couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating. My recommendation, you ask??? Make this a vacation destination, especially on the romantic side! You won't be disappointed Cheers, Jim

    My husband and I spent one night here for our son's graduation from the US Coast Guard. We arrived…read morevery late, but they left our key in an envelope on the front desk. Our room was conveniently located, quaint, and clean. In the morning, we enjoyed their complimentary breakfast, which included three breakfast entrees, fresh fruit, yogurt to start, and, of course, freshly brewed coffee. Our waitress was kind and efficient, as was the manager who oversaw everything. She was also very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place, which is a hop, skip, and a jump to the beach! :)
