Marquis de Lafayette Hotel

The fact that each room came with 2 beach tags that you could borrow from the concierge desk saved me some money. Which I used to enjoy my vacation!

Great stay, great view, will be back!

We had a great stay! The hotel was very clean, and we loved the beautiful ocean view. We’ll definitely stay here again next time we’re in Cape May!

Location was best. Room good bathroom newer,but toilet location oddly placed and no sink in bathroom. Also dogs, supposedly Support dogs ?? All over , no choice but to put up with barking on balcony etc.

Only one sink in main room-an additional sink in the lavatory with toilet and shower would have been better. Also, AC unit worked well but a bit noisy. Balcony overlooking great oven view was a treat! Overall a great place!

Parking at times was a little difficult as spaces filled up quickly. All-in-all avery nice place, this is our second year at this time of year.

Unfortunately, I was somewhat disappointed with the overall appearance and cleanliness of the room, especially considering the price. While the floors, beds, and shower were clean, there were quite a few details that made the room feel less well-maintained than expected. The door frames had numerous dents and areas where the finish was missing, and there were stains on the bathroom walls and door. The areas around the perimeter of the sinks could also have used more attention. Our balcony door also did not always lock properly. Since we were on a higher floor, we weren't overly concerned about someone entering the room. There were also a few days when our room was not cleaned even though we had not placed the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and the location really is excellent. Unfortunately, the condition and upkeep of the room did not quite live up to what we expected for the price. We're not sure if we'll return, but given the great location and our previous experience, I wouldn't rule it out.

Clean room!

Great location! Very room has a view! Wonderful staff.

This was a first - I must say it was not everyone on the staff, however one person can ruin an entire stay if they’re consistently the person one sees most. Ive been staying with the Marquis for decades (1980’s), solo, with a 2nd, friend or family and most importantly my doggers! Up until this visit I have never felt poorly served or made to feel that a small request was a problem, or not permitted. That said - I was sad to see this fine family friendly hotel begin the slip. Our room was shabby, the balcony was mostly over a tar roof. The pool was beautiful and very well maintained. To be Specific - my grown daughter was to meet me for my last day- I paid for a double and she was treated as though she was some kid crashing in her Mom’s room for free (She’s 56 years old). The Towel Law - sorry I was offended, NEVER in all my years of staying here was I told “ NO, you can’t have a second pool towel- 1 per person, I was reminded a few times that a full house of guests was expected (this by the way was to happen after my departure?? I requested the pull out bed be made up for my daughter, it was not, someone dropped the linen on the couch, sans any bed pillows- we managed The bathroom was clean, and well stocked with bath towels daily!! And with so many other places old & new - I think it’s time to try another Cape May ‘home away from home’

Excellent location , clean and staff very helpful

Location was excellent! Across the street from the beach, beautiful views of the water and walking distance to shops, restaurants church and grocery store. Staff was friendly and professional. Food at the hotel restaurant was delicious and fresh and the drinks at the pool side bar were excellent. Would definitely stay here again!

Everything was perfect and we will be staying there again!

The location was terrific, just across the street from the beach and two blocks from the downtown shopping area. Stunning view from our third floor suite and balcony. The Barefoot Bar & Restaurant had a nice and reasonably priced breakfast. What we really didn’t like: unable to check in until 4:00 pm! Felt like a wasted day. Floors in the suite were filthy, needed to be vacuumed and scrubbed. Balcony overlooked the outdoor restaurant where there was live music every night. Enjoyed it somewhat one night sitting out on the balcony, but it went on for over four hours and was so loud you could hear it blocks away.

Great location! Nice sized rooms. Shower was good. It had a small refrigerator with a large freezer which was very helpful . The beds in our room 223 were very old & uncomfortable. The air conditioning unit was very loud & turned off & on all night making it hard to sleep & also hard to hang out on the balcony. Overall a great stay besides the above issues.

Staff was great and location is perfect. Rooms are a little dated but very functional. Will stay again.

The room was very clean, well equipped, and beautifully decorated with a beach theme. The view from our terrace was spectacular! We also enjoyed lunch at the Barefoot Bar -- good food and a fun atmosphere.

too many kids, pool is small. we had 3 guests and provided only 2 beach badges. i think it would be nice to get all 3

Amazed at how great the view was and will plan to come back to this updated hotel

Great location with a view of the ocean, nice pool, great room as well!
