The Virginia is a fantastic hotel, the staff are all above average from check in with Harry to Fletcher who mans the bar. The property is cozy with a roaring fire in the parlor while seated on a long sofa upholstered in a soft green velvet. The breakfast which is included with your stay is beyond the idea of a continental one, it is all delicious, filling & enough of a reason to stay. I can’t wait to return!

Fabulous Stay
From the moment we walked in we were treated so well. The staff makes sure you are comfortable and checks in daily to see what they can do to make your stay memorable. The room was so comfortable and the food options were so good.

I liked that it was in the center of Cape May. I didn't like the parking was off site but they did provide valet parking which was very nice.

First time staying at Virginia Hotel but definitely won’t be our last. The hotel itself is so pretty ( fresh flowers everywhere) and smells so good. Loved the outdoor porch and lounge areas. Rooms were elegantly appointed but the thing that really sets this hotel apart was the service. From check in , to the bar and breakfast staff , valet , the staff couldn’t do enough for the guests . Also loved the fact that we could use pool at Congress hall and enjoyed wonderful beach service as well. We will be back !

A beautiful property on the best street in Cape May. We enjoyed not having to deal with the car once we got there. Central to everything. Breakfast was understaffed. The poor guy was running around like mad. It took 45 minutes for toast and quiche. We ended up eating at the Mad Batter next door the next 2 days. Overall a great stay.

Little gem in a beautiful town
The hotel is in wonderful condition considering its age. Clean, beautifully decorated. The staff is beyond accommodating. The service was impeccable. I can’t recommend this place enough. 2-minute walk to the pool at The Congress and all the amenities. We were more than happy staying at The Virginia over The Congress as it’s super quiet and quaint one block over.

Great hotel in a great location. Food on site is really good. Shinning star of this place is the people!! Some of the best service I have received while staying in a resort. The only thing that could be improved was my bed was very uncomfortable. Small miss with all the perks. Beach service was great!!
