A delightful one night stay in a quaint old victorian era hotel. We stayed in the Southern House which is used in winter time I guess. Nicely appointed old property reminescent of many years ago in downtown cape may, near the beach and convention hall. Definitely recommend if you dont mind winding stairs.

Our stay was very nice, everything was exactly what we wanted. Our only complaint is that since there is a bar attached to the property, it got a bit noisy at night. Would stay again, though!

Southern quarters are small I would recommend only two people and the sink was not in the bathroom. Otherwise everything was clean and painless. My fiancee and I had a great weekend trip.

The room was a nice size in the Southern Quarters of the Chalfonte hotel. The bathroom was beautiful. This is quite an old house and of course like any older home you don’t have a completely level floor, we kind of expect that. The one thing that was really disconcerting in the room was the antique dresser, which was leaning against the wall and had wheels on one side and not on the other so it was quite tilted, it gave the optical illusion that the room was sloping downward especially when lying on the bed. It was a beautiful antique and if that were fixed it would give a much better feel to the room.
