We just returned from another visit to the Southern Mansion, and every time we are there we fall more in love with it. We had a king premier room and it was wonderful. So was the breakfast and the afternoon tea. The hotel is spotless and I love the bed linens. The staff is friendly and we honestly feel like... more

My Son and New Daughter in Law were married at the Southern Mansion On Sept. 16, 2005 It was the most beautiful setting possible, They were married outside and it was just magnificent. The food was outstanding and service was excellent. I would totally reccomend the Mansion for any affair or just to get away for a weekend. Elizabeth L.... more

We just returned from the Southern Mansion and had the best weekend! We attended the Cape May Jazz Festival and it was a blast! Our room was amazing! The stay included breakfast and afternoon tea that was delicious! The servers were great. The two young ladies at the desk were truly helpful. They were very knowledgeable of town events and... more

What a beautiful place! I took my then fiancee, now husband, to the Southern Mansion for his birthday (this is now 6 years ago and we both still remember it!). We both enjoyed every minute. The rooms were so beautifully done in period furnishings and the mansion itself just seeped in history. We loved riding bikes in the neighborhood and... more

The Southern Mansion is the nicest place in Cape May. I stayed first at three other places suggested in reviews they were nothing compared to the Southern Mansion. Maybe the fake review were written by other owners but the Southern Mansion was 10x nicer than any of the "trip advisor" so called top rated It's gorgeous you'll love it Jennifer... more

I had to write this review because I can not believe the awful comments! I am a return guest of about a dozen or more times and I am shocked. I absolutely love the staff and the accommodations! Everytime I vist it is a nice break from our everyday busy lives. The meals are always delicious. The rooms are always... more

This beautiful Bed and Breakfast is marred by a desk staff that that gives lip service to caring about it's customers. After spending an extra fifty dollars to push up our stay by two days (even though the hotel was 75% vacant in late October), we found on our second day the HVAC system was down. The Mansion tends to... more

We stayed in the Southern Mansion last September, the week after Labor Day. We are huge Cape May fans and had been looking forward to staying here since we watched the refurbishment of the property. It truly is a beautiful property - the room we had was gorgeous, the public rooms are outstanding, and the landscaping is just beautiful. That... more

Just stayed at The Southern Mansion. What can I say? Just foot steps away from the beach, shops, and dining. The place was beautiful! We had a large king bedroom that we will never forget. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious and servings were excellent. I can not wait to return! more
