  Congress Hall is one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever been to it reminds me of back in the day when everything was actually built to great standards and customer service mattered. The pool is beautiful. The interior is gorgeous. The staff is friendly and prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend it for you and your family. It reminds me of what it was like as a kid to have a good time. That’s hard to find these days. A+ from me.

  I love Congress Hall - the amenities, the location, the spa, the pool, the beach service is all 5 stars.
  
  This is a Perry Suite at the Congress Place Suites specific review.
  
  Location is ideal if you want to be situated in the center of it all! It’s on the Washington St Mall, across the street from Congress Hall, a short walk to the beach, walking distance to countless restaurants, shopping and activities. However, minus one star for the noise. It’s loud. You will hear all the buzz all night long. Even with the sound machine we placed on the window sill.
  
  The Perry Suite is great if you are looking for a home away from home. It has space and the convenience of all full kitchen. So why just a one star review?
  
  The shower was a huge inconvenience our entire vacation and was never addressed after making concierge aware. The shower head points directly out of the shower door and was not adjustable to point down or away from the door. Even with the door “closed” (see pictures), puddles and puddles of water continuously leaks out onto the shower floor. The Perry Suite is designed with families in mind. We had 4 people in my family taking daily showers. ALL the towels in the bathroom then needed to be utilized to mop up the large puddles of water on the bathroom floor.
  
  I messaged the concierge about the issue and they told me maintenance would come but same exact shower head remained in the shower so not sure what was accomplished.
  
  We were so frustrated with the situation that I had my kids shower at the outdoor pool showers so I didn’t have to spend as much time cleaning up the bathroom floor while on vacation.
  
  Additionally, the suite did not come with a shampoo bottle or a shower cap. We got 2 bottles of body wash and 1 conditioner. I asked concierge for shampoo and a shower cap. Only received shampoo the next day.
  
  Lastly, the bedroom. Although cutely decorated and very comfy, the windows need blackout shades. The street lights kept us awake (along with the street noise) each night. The shades on the windows let in too much light, even at night.
  
  Upon check out, we did speak to the front desk about the issues with the Perry Suite. Front Desk said they would file our complaint. Never heard back and it’s been over a week.
  
  Received an online survey, filled it out explaining all the issues with the stay, asked for the general manager to call me. Never heard back.
  
  I’m disappointed to say the least. As a repeat guest, I expected more. We have stayed at Congress Hall and the Virginia in the past and both times loved our vacation. The price point for the Perry Suite is too high to be mopping up the bathroom floor with towels each time someone takes a shower. Blackout shades, shampoo and shower caps are also standard in 4 star hotels. A manager reaching out to a disappointed guest to make things right is customary and makes customers truly feel like guests.
  
  I hope they take surveys and google reviews seriously to avoid more unhappy guests in the Perry Suite in the future.

  One of my favourite spots for drinks! Amazing location and bright summer colours. I really wish oysters 🦪 would be slightly better , but in general atmosphere is outstanding.

  Just had dinner at The Blue Pig. Service and food were good but the fire alarm went off mid meal. We were outside for about 15 minutes in a drizzle Couldn’t be helped. The surprise was that management didn’t offer to comp a cocktail or dessert. Not great service for a hotel we’re paying about $800 a night for.

  No place like it in Mid-Atlantic area. Family friendly and feels like you are at a resort.

  We had a good time at Congress Hall. I went there with my Sister, Sister in law and my God Child. They wanted to have Expresso Martinis. I was the designated driver. 🙂

  The Congress Hall with the outdoor restaurant is the best place to relax and have lunch, dinner or just a glass of wine in Cape May. I've been coming here for lunch for over 20 years. The outdoor restaurant surrounded by beautiful flowers is stunning. You can watch special events and enjoy the lovely atmosphere. I feel like on vacation every time I come here. My favorite dishes are the egg omelets, fresh salads and desserts. They have the best key lime pie and creme brulee in Cape May. The service is excellent. Highly recommend the outdoor restaurant.
