The rooms and space was clean, well kept. The sitting room on the second floor has a beautiful view of the sunrise and an excellent place for coffee from the hospitality room. Wine and cheese reception at night was a nice touch. The restaurant has great food! My husband had a great birthday getaway there. Would definitely highly recommend

At the last minute I booked an overnight stay to enjoy the outstanding November weather. This hotel exceeded my expectations in style, friendliness, comfort & location. During this pandemic, they implemented every possible precaution & yet it was a relaxing stay. The large porch allows for outside dining- including their complimentary breakfast.

We wanted to go somewhere small since COVID is a real concern and the Peter Shields Inn was perfect. They only have 9 rooms and they instituted many precautions that made us feel very safe. The Inn is across from the beach and everything we needed was right there. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Room needed Victorian makeup. Paint was not up to the classic design of the property.

Staying at The Peter Shields Inn was thoroughly rejuvenating and pampering. The historic Inn offers luxurious and inviting accommodations in my most favorite beach community in South Jersey. It’s beachfront location is ideal for enjoying the natural ocean beauty easily and from every restful location on the property. The bedding was heavenly as was the service and on site fine dining restaurant. The wine and cheese reception, breakfast and all day snacks were equally wonderful as the five star dinner. I cannot wait to go back to The Peter Shields Inn. It is my new number one destination for complete serenity within driving distance from home. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality

Very nice and relaxing stay. Wine and cheese were great, dinner was excellent, and the bed was comfy. Russell checked us in and he was very nice. The restaurant was busy and I am glad we booked an early sitting. It is a small property, which I like. Will definitely come again.

The room was very clean and comfortable, and bathroom was modern. We appreciated the cocktail hour and the included breakfast was very, very good. We would certainly stay here again! Included parking, and the location is across the street from the beach, which is super convenient.
