Congress Hall
Cape May
America's oldest seaside resort. Victorian elegance meets modern luxury.
About Congress Hall
Congress Hall has been welcoming guests since 1816, making it the oldest seaside resort in the country. The yellow Victorian building sits steps from Cape May's beach and holds the Blue Pig Tavern, a full-service spa, and the Boiler Room nightclub in the basement. It's large by Cape May standards — 107 rooms — and books out months ahead in summer.
