Top Downtown Nantucket Hotel Reviews

Centerboard

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in a central location to restaurants and shops in town, they were all in walking distance. The hotel fit the two of us nicely and was the perfect fit for our 3 night stay."

Greydon House

10/10 Excellent

"This property is situated perfectly in the heart of downtown, making it walking distance to most everywhere in the city. The rooms are small, but they are so cute and clean and the tile in the shower is incredible. The hotel is dim lit in the best way, making it feel quaint and cozy. The restaurant and bar are beautifully decorated and the seating area behind the bar is spacious and opens into a courtyard perfect for relaxing. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure that any needs were met. I hope to return to Nantucket in the future, and if I do, I will absolutely be staying at the Greydon House again."

Hotel Pippa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful boutique hotel, great location, very friendly and warm staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean. The continental breakfast was a high standard. I hadn’t realised that the room I booked was the smallest in the hotel, and similar to a Manhattan Studio size. It was compact and very well laid out. It was great for one night, possibly too small if staying a few nights. Not sure if it wasn’t clear from the description on the website of how small it was, but just worth checking the room type of you need something a little bigger."
