The Chalfonte Hotel

$$$

301 Howard St, Cape May , NJ

Established in 1876, this is recognized as the oldest continuously operating original hotel in Cape May. Run completely independently as a standalone historic property, it is famous for its massive, tier-decked Victorian porches, Southern-style hospitality, and distraction-free guest rooms that intentionally lack televisions or phones to preserve a classic, unplugged summer getaway vibe.
