The Marquis is beachfront beautiful with nice, spacious rooms that overlook the beach. And the room had rocking chairs so it was very relaxing and comfortable to sit out there in the morning for breakfast and in the evening for dinner. Very friendly 24 hour staff, good onsite eateries, and a wonderful section of Cape May to walk around. It was a glorious week in a great place!

Nice hotel a little strange that the doors are in the outside. They needs to mop the floors every once in a while. Our feet turned black from walking on the floors. Everything else was very clean. Overall very nice and beachfront! Beautiful view in the morning.
