Top Downtown Nantucket Hotel Reviews

Nantucket Resort Collection

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property. Well maintained with a super, helpful staff. We stayed on the third floor in one of the property's hotel houses without an elevator. Stairs were narrow and steep. Very dangerous for older travelers."

Harborview Nantucket

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was even better than we'd hoped. The cottage was absolutely beautiful and extremely clean, and we couldn't have been in a better location! The view of the harbor, proximity to shopping and dining, and ease of check-in/out made for the perfect vacation. The bed was super comfy and the kitchen was outfitted with everything you could need. I highly recommend this beautiful property for your stay on Nantucket!"

21 Broad Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We booked a reservation literally at the last minute, the level of kindness I received from my first phone call is hard to believe. The ferrys quit running back to the Cape and we were stuck and they immediately told me to stay put and came and picked us up and brought us back to the wonderful resort and very helpful and compassionate staff. Everything at this lovely quaint hotel was immaculate and the location couldn’t be more perfect. 10 out of 5 stars!"

Faraway Nantucket

10/10 Excellent

"We went for a mother daughter trip and this property was beautiful. They have excellent staff and amenities. The Sister Ship restaurant was amazing and the ambiance was second to none. Cymbals for breakfast on the patio was perfect! If you want a wonderful Nantucket experience, I highly recommend!"

Nantucket Inn

8/10 Good

"The lobby area was great. Although the room felt a bit sparse- seemed to be missing local charm. And we didn’t realize it was right at the end of the airport- we could have walked to it, instead we had a $23 taxi fee. The staff was outstanding- probably some of the warmest folks I have ever experienced. They offered shuttles into town, and offered complimentary bikes to ride, although the e-bikes were already out, so we couldn’t do the long ride. Overall, we had a great experience in Nantucket."

Martin House Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Nantucket feels like living in a fairy tale! The Martin house was recommended to us by friends and it did not disappoint. It is a beautiful place with a bright bed and breakfast feel. Easy walking distance from downtown, but also just off the beaten path that it feels cozy and personal. If we could afford Nantucket, we would absolutely stay there again."
