5 out of 5A Very Special Place To Stay in Cape May
May 08, 2013
We recently visited PSI on our way home from Virginia to NJ with our new car. We had the pleasure of trying two rooms: Room 1 on the second floor facing the ocean and Room 6 on the third floor. The first is lovely and good sized, but subject to more sounds of other guest socializing in the second floor sitting room or from the dining room below if they happen to have an unusually late crowd, which I'm told is not common. We moved to the much quieter third floor on our second night and very much enjoyed the smaller, freshly renovated room. Our one dinner at their famed restaurant was outstanding. They deserve all the accolades!

My husband and I went for a mini honeymoon. We only stayed one night but we fell so in love with Peter Sheilds Inn that we wanted to stay longer. Our room was beautiful. The staff was very helpful and everything within the house was perfect. We loved our stay so much that we are looking forward to returning next year!

We were delighted to be across the street from the ocean. The inn offers bicycles, beach chairs, towels and umbrellas for guest use. We took full advantage of them. The breakfast was outstanding. It was great to have a choice and also enjoy the ocean view on the screened-in porch. Any questions were addressed immediately. The wine and cheese in the afternoon provided another opportunity to meet some very nice guests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay,

The staff was wonderful and helpful. We enjoyed having breakfast and dinner on the porch with an ocean view. We used both the bikes and the chairs/umbrellas for the beach, nice touch.
3.6 out of 5Great B&B!
June 15, 2012
We came for our 3rd anniversary--- and it was a great weekend. We stayed in room 6 and though the regular AC was out, the did have a window unit in that worked fine (though we no longer had an ocean view). The breakfast on the deck every morning was perfect. We took full advantage of the bikes, chairs, and beach towels they have to offer (loved that we didn't have to pack our own!) We did dine at the restaurant on Saturday night- it happened to be restaurant week, so keep this in mind, but they were so busy that we were very rushed it seems. We were in and out in just over an hour for a 3 course meal--- I would have preferred a more leisurely paced meal, but the food was outstanding. Our waitress seemed overwhelmed as well but again, this could have been due to being completely booked for restaurant week. Loved the wine and cheese every afternoon at 4:30...don't show up too late! we came at 5:30 and all the wine was gone :( Overall amazing stay---can't beat the location across from the beach! It is a bit pricey but worth it! Great Inn and we will certainly be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Peter Shields Inn. Everyone was helpful, accommodating and friendly; we enjoyed our use of the bikes and beach chairs--and the breakfasts were fantastic, both the quality of the food and the ocean view--the covered porch was lovely, even in the rain. Thanks for the hospitality! Mike and Dawn
3.4 out of 5Stay at Peter Shieds Inn Cape May
April 29, 2012
Peter Shiels is a lovely facility located across from the Cape May beach so offers a wonderful view of the ocean. inner at the Peter Shillds restaurant was great; however, we found the breakfast disappointing. There was only one entree offered with very little else available if you didn't want.
