A few weeks ago we took our vacation.
Again, this year to Congress Hall in Cape May, NJ.
(lobby)
We love it there because it's got something for everyone.
We ate breakfast in the courtyard (by a very old fountain) everyday.

One of the reasons Congress Hall feels warmer to me than a regular hotel is that you can take the stairs instead of an elevator. The staircase has two sides, which I love! And, the landings are decorated with furniture that's been at the hotel since the 1800's.
I watched a wedding from this window in the garden with a woman
who was married exactly one year ago in the same garden.
There's a cool bar for the grownups.
It was the first place I ever saw a zebra rug (five years ago).
It has since been replaced with a tiger print that I don't love as much.

They have family activities and camps for the kids.
When the hotel was revitalized the designer used old pieces and
freshened them up with bright whites and colorful paint.

Love the old elevator trimmed black.
Bright colors -blue, pink, yellow, green and stripes throughout.
The wire urns and giant birdcage are so cool
Check out my post about it last year , it's much better.
I forgot my camera this year and just snapped a few pix with my iPhone.
