The perfect place to book for a quick weekend away, close by to all that Cape May has to offer. Can’t beat an oceanfront view either, and the outdoor bar/speakeasy are great to have there for late night.

Excellent location, facing the ocean and walking distance from downtown Historic Cape May. The "feel" is a bit like a motel but go for the view and location.

We were three ladies on our annual summer girls trip to Cape May…first time staying at the Marquis de Lafayette. We absolutely loved it! 10 out of 10! The property is immaculate - almost Disney-esque ❤️ The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the accommodations were perfect. We will definitely be back next summer!
