Classic New England Inn with wonderful views and service. Great hotel bar and drinks on the lawn out front was a highlight. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent.
This is a beautiful place to stay on Block Island. The room (while a bit tiny) was well-appointed with modern facilities and products and all comforts. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the The Atlantic restaurant is excellent.
Service was excellent! All staff were so friendly and eager to help. Room exactly as described. Small but well appointed. Such a great environment that I wish they also served breakfast.
Lovely relaxing stay at a classic BI hotel. Really enjoyed the on-site dining for dinner, sunset views, and the ability to walk into town or the beach. Would stay again.
This property is stunning. One of the statement places on the island. The staff is very courteous and accommodating. We had an issue with our room, they upgraded us for one of the most beautiful rooms, no questions asked!
From beginning to end, our stay at The Atlantic was incomparable! The staff was friendly and accommodating. Rooms and grounds were maintained beautifully and the view was spectacular!
Loved the view. Dinner on the porch was excellent!

Over all it was a good and clean place. However, keep it mind there are no elevators and fridage and microwave in the rooms. We booked a suite. It was extremely tight space.
We had an amazing experience at the Atlantic Inn. Very cute clean rooms and very nice staff. It is a perfect location to walk down town and even the beach. I highly recommend the Atlantic Inn. I will definitely be back in the future!
In early May, my wife and I stayed 5 nights at the Atlantic Inn, a wonderful, quiet, historic hotel on Block Island. Its location on high ground commands views of the historic harbor and is a short walking distance to the town. The Inn was serviced by a friendly, knowledgeable staff, who remembered our interests and often offered insightful suggestions. Our room was cosy and clean. The complimentary coffee and teas available in the lobby are of excellent quality and are offered throughout the day. We plan to return on future visits.
We had a lovely two night stay. The room, the 5 o’clock cocktails at the cozy bar and a wonderful meal on our first night was much appreciated. I’ve been going to Block Island for many years and this first stay at the Atlantic Inn was great. A short walk to town and to Water Street, although a fairly steep hill between, was fun and not too bad.

The restaurant and bar were very enjoyable as were the staff.
My only comment would be I would like to see a bigger breakfast menu.
A minor point compared to all the positive aspects of your hotel.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The day we arrived their restraunt wasn’t open yet, so they gave us recommendations for another restaurant.

The Atlantic is an old historic inn that was completely updated two years ago. The whole facility is immaculate. The staff was extremely attentive even though we were there pre-season.
We will definitely stay at The Sylsntic if we ever return to Block Island!
