This is a large hotel with a huge indoor pool and a jacuzzi. Our room had a view of the ocean, the sunset and a roomy balcony with furniture, which was very nice to have, despite it overlooking the rooftop air conditioners. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious. The hotel is walking distance to the main shops, some restaurants and magnificent colorful Victorian mansions. The beach is across the street and is about one quarter mile deep! We were very comfortable here for 3 nights in a terrific location. The price was fantastic, since we were upgraded to a suite with two bedrooms and a kitchenette. There are antique shops and Beach Plum Farm close by and a wonderful birding tour by boat (Bird Safari on the boat Osprey).

An okay trip
The hotel was clean in and out. Cape May, in general, was very clean and very nice. Very little trash on the streets, and it was bicycle and pedestrian friendly. Our biggest complaint was the price. For the season, we thought it was high. For a Sunday, it was 264.00, Monday thru Wed. it was 176.00, and Thursday was 214.00. Plus, each night had a resort fee. The other issue was cancelation options, which was a 30-day out. You could cancel if you did it 30 days in advance. We tried to cancel 2weeks out, and we were going to be charged 371.00 dollars. We also felt that the restaurants were kind of high. Breakfast ran us 42.00 to 48.00 for two people, which was a basic meal. We paid 3.50 for a small glass of juice, but the food was very well prepared. We did have a great experience with the lady at the gift shop located in the hotel.

Everything was perfect. The only thing I didn’t like so much was not getting a parking spot. I think they should give you 1 parking spot per room.

Easy check-in. Helpful and friendly staff. Had issue with the safe and called front desk. It was corrected within 15 minutes by friendly staff. Across the street from the beach and convenient. Able to get free lounge chairs and towels from the beach staff. (Off-season so not sure during peak season)

Suite was renovated and overall clean. Area was quiet and amenities were well-maintained. Parking is a bit of a pain if you need accessible ramps. Anyone arriving after the main parking lot is full is forced to park behind the building and use a shady, non-accessible entrance that is very cramped and lined with tubs of dirty laundry.

The Grand[Pa/Ma] Hotel made us feel like being in our mid-forties is very young! Seriously, we were two of the youngest people we saw there. However, the old music and geriatric-friendly food made for a delightfully quiet, unharsh vacation with nice extra amenities, an uncrowded beach, and pleasant interactions with other guests. The hotel is quite north along Beach Ave, but the complimentary bicycle rentals allowed us free-parking access to everything shorefront with just a 5- to 15-min slow pedaling all the way down to the south end. The hotel and rooms are decorated in the modern farmhouse style and very clean with excellent housekeeping services. I highly recommend, unless you're interested in party time or have young children. Would stay there again.
