Hotel Alcott

Great location, very clean, comfy beds. Would stay here again.

I loved the hotel. Perfect location the bed was comfortable, room and hotel very clean. Definitely would go back.

We had an amazing stay. We love old hotels and The Alcott is the 2nd oldest hotel in Cape May. Front desk check in was fast and very friendly. Thr room was cozy.

I would strongly advise any one from patronizing this hotel. Their policies are not customer friendly. I would stay at any other hotel in Cape May, than ever doing business with them again. POOR Management practices related to cancellations and re-booking -- buyer beware.

Honestly, we will be staying here from now on. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable. Our room was beautiful and clean and comfortable. Daily housekeeping and the housekeeping staff is above and beyond. We just love everything about this hotel. The location is perfect. The hotel is quiet. Perfection.

Stayed here for a weekend Christmas get away. The hotel is old and quaint. Our room was one of the deluxe queen rooms and was clean but a bit small. The best part of the hotel is the staff. They were very nice and helpful. We wanted a place to play cards and Ebony opened up a conference room for us to use. The hotel is within walking distance of the beach, the Washington street mall, and many restaurants. Because the hotel is in an old building there are no elevators so you have to be able to manage some stairs. Parking is an issue too. There is no parking for the hotel only spaces on the street. The parking meters are turned off October 1st so don’t download the app and pay like I did. I wish they would have told me that before I paid. The breakfast is OK but doesn’t open till 7:00. They need to have coffee in the lobby before 7:00. Over all I would recommend this hotel to friends.

This hotel is bare bones at best. We paid almost 300$ for a room with 2 queen beds. It did not look like the photo on their website at all! It had one bedside lamp for the whole room and one small desk chair- no other place to sit. There is no coffee maker or kettle in the room, when I asked at the desk if we could get hot water for tea, he told us to run the tap in the room. Their continental breakfast consisted of bad coffee, bruised bananas, and bagels. Lastly, there is only one area to sit in the large empty lobby that included 2 period chairs and a settee. We were very disappointed, especially at this price point. Do not book this hotel.

there was no elevator in this hotel so we had to carry our luggage up a full flight of stairs ourselves. the room was small but the bathroom was nice. hard to park...no parking lot just street parking. would not go there again.

You get what you pay for here. I was not looking to spend $300 to $400 per night on a hotel so I chose this one at $159 per night. It was just a one queen bed room. It was clean and the temperature was great. It was teeny tiny with a gigantic bathroom. It was considered to be on the second floor. It was aproximately 36 steps to our room. If you’re looking to get your steps in then this is perfect for you! But after walking 5 miles around town... Anyway, it was very disappointing that you had to wait until 8 AM to get coffee. There is no mini Keurig or coffee pot in the room.But also there wouldn’t be anywhere to put it. There isn’t anywhere to sit other than on the bed. The shower/bathtub was so scary and there wasn’t anywhere to hold on. It’s slanted and so slippery. There’s a mat, but good luck using that! It’s dangerous just be careful. The continental breakfast was adequate (starts At 8am) and you could walk across the street to a restaurant for all meals if you wanted. There is no parking nearby. It was quite a ways away to use the lot they provide. We were lucky enough to find free parking right on Grant Street just passed the meters each night. But it was a Thursday night and Friday night. Overall, I would suggest staying here for only one or two nights but no longer. It is in a really good location and easy to get around Cape May by foot and the beach but it is seriously is lacking in amenities. If your not able to walk up and down the steps then you should skip this place all together.

When you first walk in, you will be impressed with the beautiful chandeliers! However, our impression soon took a nose dive. We had reserved months in advance but when we arrived the rooms were over 85 degrees. You would think they would have set the thermostat for 72-74, knowing we would be occupying the room on that hot, hot day. We tried to open the windows to expel the heat, but they were bolted closed. Our next disappointment was the TV in the suite area where my Mother would stay, did not turn on. Maintenance came and found that it was not plugged in and there was No cable outlet or cables. Seriously? And lastly, security was very lax. No one was visible at the front desk after 8 pm, but the front door was not locked. Stay at your own risk.
