exterior of Congress Hall Hotel in Cape May, New Jersey |
America’s oldest seaside resort, the Tuscan-yellow luxe Congress Hall Hotel has been providing hospitality since 1816. It features plenty of potted palms and white colonnades, and it isn’t a complete surprise to discover that it was once the Summer White House for President Benjamin Harrison and was also the venue for performances by John Philip Sousa. In addition to exposing yourself to this bit of history, you’ll enjoy relaxing in glossy black wicker chairs and maybe even find time for the pool, spa, or, if you are a kid and it is summer, Camp Congress Hall.
The Blue Pig Tavern
(609) 884-8422.
Located inside the hall, this casual restaurant offers an eclectic menu and a spare, colonial-style decor. Drinks include Yuengling traditional lager from America’s oldest brewery, and a well-priced steamed lobster special is available some evenings.
