We only had time to spend a night at the Virginia, but are already planning to go back next year (and budget more vacation time for a longer stay!). It's an absolutely beautiful place, very tastefully done. From the minute we were greeted at the front desk I felt welcome and well taken care of-- the staff manages to be... More

My girlfriend and I recently stayed in the Turret Room of the Red Cottage, allowing for an entire floor's worth of privacy during our visit to sleepy Cape May, NJ. We were welcomed at the front desk with a friendly smile, warm chocolate chip cookies and complimentary valet parking. The property's location is ideal for visitors wanting to explore the... More

The Virginia was lovely. The rooms were nicely decorated and spotless. Service was fantastic. I would recommend getting a room away from the side though, we could hear people throwing bottles into the garbage very late at night. We would definitely stay again.

My husband, parents and I spent a couple of nights at the Virginia and really enjoyed the ambiance of the lobby and sitting areas. Decor is very tasteful and restful, location is excellent for walking to the shops of the beach, just a block either way. Rooms are spacious and well appointed but there is no elevator which was hard... More

My grown daughters and I wanted to visit Cape May for a quiet weekend and a little bonding time. I am so glad we chose to stay at the Virginia Hotel! In addition to the large, comfy bed the room easily accomodated a sleeper sofa which was also very comfortable. There were plenty of pillows, towels, and a nice assortment... More

Getting away from the Central Jersey Shore (ravaged by Sandy) and heading just a little south to Exit 0 was like being a world away. The first nice weekend of this spring made it even more eventful. All the shops & restaurants & events open as if summer had arrived. We usually stay at Congress Hall, but decided on one... More

My husband and I chose to spend our first wedding anniversary here. We enjoy this hotel. Pros: quaint, clean, charming hotel, great location. Cons: some wear and tear starting to show in some rooms. I was disappointed that they did not acknowledge our anniversary as I did let them know the date while making the reservation. Would have been a... More

We've been visiting Cape May for more than 20 years and finally took the opportunity to stay at the Virginia Hotel. It is one of the few nice places (hotel or B&B) where you can book a one night stay on a weekend. The staff were kind, cheeful and welcoming from check in to check out. The room was large... More
