Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall the room was good. I especially liked the bathroom. Showers worked well. The location is nice because it is right across from their parent hotel, the Congress Hall. There is a nice coffee shop in the lobby and another right next door. Cape May is a friendly town. Nice walk to and along the beach. Some rooms are not completely modern, and some do not have the best views. But if you are looking for an historic and comfortable stay, the Star is a good choice.

The room was lovely in a historic home with access to everything we were looking for. The staff was extremely friendly and hospitable. The location was perfect- across from Congress Hall, around the corner from Washington Street Mall, and just a short walk to the beach.

The place is very clean quaint. A little dated and there was no fridge or microwave in the room, but we were not bothered by it. Great location right by the main strip, and you can also use the Congress Hall grounds as the two properties have the same owners. It’s also right across from Congress Hall. My husband and I really liked it.

Beautiful resort-a chess to all of Congress Hall’s amenities. We lived our one bedroom suite: it had a covered front porch with rockets and a private back garden with two comfy chairs and a small picnic table. We lived the live music at the Brown Room

Major misrepresentation of actual rooms appearance . Stayed inside main house rooms, that are very old, tiny claustrophobic with few antique partially dysfunctional and broken furniture items. Our first room had impossibly small shower and sink less than the size of the airplane ones. Were able to upgrade to a bigger room, but the old smell and overall discomfort was impossible to fix.
