Been going to the Jersey shore all my life, first time I ever stayed in Cape May. The Victorian was my pick. The place lived up to all reviews. Friendly & helpful staff, Super clean & Perfect location. Was our first stay, but not our last. We're going back in the fall for a longer stay . Nothing much more... More

First time visit, chosen because of high reviews from TripAdvisor. Aging motel with 36 rooms is kept in good shape. Arrived on Thursday and departed on Sunday in mid-May. Summer crowds not here yet. No problems with noise, primarily due to absence of children. Our friends had a suite on pool level in corner with no views. Mosquitoes were a... More

OK this doesn't have the ambience of a B &B but you can't beat it for value and convenience. We stayed here out of season and so the pool wasn't open yet. Can imagine how nice that is. Our 2 room suite included a bedroom with 2 double beds and a living room/kitchen dining table room. The kitchen has enough... More

We have been coming to the Victorian Motel for a long time. My husband and I came on April 26 for my birthday. This is a great place to stay. The room is clean, comfortable and the staff are very nice. This is also the best location to stay at because you just step out your door and you are... More

This is the third time I've stayed at the Victorian Motel and I've never been disappointed. You absolutely cannot beat the location. We walked everywhere in town and you're only a block from the beach. The service is fabulous, everyone who works there is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are immaculate and very stylish. The price in the high... More

Very clean, tidy and quiet rooms. Great location in the centre of Cape May across from Washington Mall and a warm welcome from John and his team. We hope to return to enjoy a Cape May autumn as much as we enjoyed our first Cape May spring

We stayed at the Victorian for the first time last summer after staying at a few other motels in Cape May over the years. We loved the location of this hotel. The pool was a huge hit with the kids. The rooms were very clean and the staff very friendly. John the owner was exceptionally kind and really seems to... More

We included Cape May as a stopover on a Spring Break with our 7 year old twins and chose the Vic Motel principally on value and we were not disappointed. OK, there are no frills and no breakfast but the room was clean and spacious (easily spend longer than a single night with a couple of kids). It is very... More
