This is one of my favorite places to stay. It’s so quaint, clean and the staff is so friendly. The warm muffins and coffee delivered to your room in the morning to enjoy on the balcony overlooking the water is a huge plus as well.

Love the breakfast and the Widows Walk. Love the waterfront breeze and the mom-and-pop feel. This is one of our favorite weekend retreats.

Love the location, park your car and walk to restaurants and shops. Staff is friendly and the property is beautiful. Can usually see wild horses across the sound.
Great hotel, great location. Way better than the chain hotels.

Breakfast was delicious. I was not expecting such a generous choice. Parking was convenient and safe. The room was lovely and very comfortable bed. The inlet is located right in town with an easy walk to shops and many great restaurants
This is my second time staying at Inlet Inn, and it was quite enjoyable. The staff are very friendly and the one at the front desk offered me all the suggestions and told me about places to explore in the area. It’s a great location from walking and also to head out and drive to nearby spots or take the ferry, which is right out front to some of the most popular destinations I enjoyed the lookout for watching the sunset and chatted with other guests who had spotted a horse on carrot island that morning I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy bright and relaxing place to stay.
Inlet inn is my favorite hotel to stay at in Beaufort. Great location located on front street and walkable to the front street restaurants and bars.
Rooms are very nice and clean. Black shades on windows are a plus too. Nice towels and linens.
We had a weekend stay at the Inn and everything was perfect. Location is the best. Staff was friendly and the room was super clean. Highly recommend this place. I will be staying here the next time I visit Beaufort.
My wife and I recently visited the Inlet Inn. The waterfront location is perfect, within very short walking distance to ferry boat rides, nice restaurants, shopping and historic homes and churches. The staff at the Inlet Inn was extremely friendly and helpful; check-in/out was a breeze. Our rooms (due to our late booking we had to change rooms) spectacular! Both rooms were very spacious. The first had a large balcony overlooking the water. The second had a large bay window overlooking the water with a reading nook. As far as the amenities, you won’t find the usual chain hotel perks (workout facility, pool, restaurant/bar) but we really enjoyed the Inlet Inns amenities. Continental breakfast delivered to our room each morning. Free self parking onsite- a really great benefit in this parking challenged town. A gorgeous courtyard with native plantings. And they have a spacious lounge overlooking the water. As far as attractions, we really enjoyed the ferry boat ride to Shackleford Banks island to see the wild horses and on the way back the Captain spotted a pod of dolphins feeding. At one point they were only 20 yards away! And don’t miss the Saturday morning Farmers Market (also walking distance from the hotel). One of the best we’ve been to. We highly recommend the Inlet Inn!
