Great Views, Great Staff, Walls are pretty thin.

Reviewed By Kmil05

So overall I rated this place as very good, but bear with me as this will be a bit lengthy.. Overall the Hotel is extremely clean both on the grounds and in our room, the staff was always friendly and professional. The bed was very comfortable and the rooms are spacious. The breakfast spread is pretty normal and they keep it fresh; the excerise area is nice. The pools and hot tubs were also nicely maintined. There is a great patio in the back where you can sit and enjoy the sounds of the water and watch the sunset. now for the bad... The walls are paper thin we could clearly hear the TV as well as all the conversations in the room next door. The other bad thing was trying to enjoy the pool that is for guests only and 2 days in a row they had rented the pool out for large birthday parties. It made using the pool less than desirable and even more so when the children didn't adhere to any rules.

Horrible view

Reviewed By Lingwer

Checked in to discover our balcony looks out directly on a bunch of rusty shacks, trucks, and random trailers/equipment. For $300/night, these were not the peaceful water views we were hoping for. When we requested another room that didn’t face a junkyard, we were told they could only accommodate us if we changed rooms every night of our stay. While I can certainly understand that they can’t move people if the hotel is booked, a room this disappointing should only be offered at a steep discount. Definitely won’t be staying here again.

Quiet retreat

Reviewed By GracieBow

This is a very nice Hampton inn. We always stay at Hampton and the level of comfort and quality was as good as ever. I’m not sure what some of the reviewers were referring to. Our room was clean and tastefully decorated, bed was comfortable and sheets were clean and nice quality. If you think dark wood, tan granite and travertine floors are dated then yes the bathroom is dated?. The bathroom was clean and in good repair. Big negative for us was no fridge or microwave in our room but some did have them so ask if important to you. They offered to move us if one was available. Would definitely stay here again.

Small Town Charm with Personal Service

Reviewed By joefuller75

We chose to spend our 38th anniversary in Cape Charles and came back to the Hotel Cape Charles based on previous experience. We confirmed that it was the right choice. The hotel lobby is colorful and bright. Our host Jawn greeted us warmly and presented us with a complimentary bottle of wine to help celebrate our big day. We asked questions about the local businesses since we had not been there in 2 years due to Covid. It seems Cape Charles was back in business- even better with a distillery right across the street. Our room was huge and well appointed with modern appliances and fixtures. The TV was a little small but the controls were easy to navigate. The glassed-in balcony provided a fantastic view of the main street and all the activity. We really appreciated the space and the view. The King bed and pillows were very comfortable. We rented a hotel-provided golf cart and in the afternoon we drove to the brewing company near the "lighthouse" water tower and our dinner spot across the bridge. In the morning we drove to the beach and then around Cape Charles. The golf-cart adoption by Cape Charles' leaders is brilliant because it is so much fun. We could have had a free breakfast at the cafe that is adjacent to the Hotel but we opted for bagel sandwiches. They were perfect. Every time we came and went we were greeted by staff in a friendly manor. There are tables in the courtyard, available bicycles and a very positive vibe overall. We highly recommend Hotel Cape Charles.

Need a Great Getaway!

Reviewed By Nancy6843

if you need a special place for an occasion or just need to get away, this is the place for you. Matt and Kim treat you like pampered guests at their lovely inn. Need a strong cup of coffee delivered to your room in the morning? How about wine, snacks and conversation with like-minded people on a flower bedecked patio? Then you have come to the right place. Each room is named for a special place. We stayed in the Provence room so it was like a slice of France on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Onancock is a charming town with restaurants and shops and access to water for kayaking and boating all within walking distance from the inn. What are you waiting for?

Cute hotel and location

Reviewed By turgonuk

Stayed one night here in March 22. The restaurant part was not open at this time, so it was room only. Room was fairly small, but comfortable enough, not much of a view outside (some sort of yard at the back). We had everything we needed. Location was right in the center of this small town and we could park right outside. Small general store was a few meters away which also provided breakfasts if you wanted. A small breakfast was provided at the hotel in the morning along with hot coffees etc.

Excellent Experience

Reviewed By Wodart

We stayed here for two nights using Marriott rewards points. We were greeted cheerfully at the reception desk and provided some useful travel tips. The hotel was clean and modern with a spacious breakfast area, including a few outdoor tables. Breakfast was fairly typically of mid-range chain hotels, but included a few hot items that changed each day as well as cereals, bread, muffis, fruit, etc. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Our balcony had a very pleasant view of the bay. The pool was not yet open for season during our stay, but looked quite appealing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this Marriott property and would happily return.
