Guest Reviews

Ben (10/5): 1st visit to Nantucket - The Ship Inn was an older but has all the necessary amenities. Mary Lou and her staff were very courteous and helpful with information. Will definitely return.
Mary Jane (10/5): - Comfortable stay. Excellent breakfast
Jean (10/5): - Very nice and comfortable, good location
Kelly (10/5): Wonderful stay! - Had the most wonderful stay Daffodil weekend! Beautiful bright room. Breakfast was out of this world and a real treat! Fantastic location, right in town.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice staff and stay. Tough to park nearby.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Don't even think about bringing your car on the ferry; just walk on. Inn was a short walk from the pier. Original ferry ride was cancelled due to weather and our hosts were very understanding. Excellent restaurant run by the proprietors -- scrumptious breakfasts. Very accommodating hosts. It is one of only a few in the world we look forward to visiting again.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful breakfast buffet, friendly staff, lovely rooms.
Christine (10/5): Cozy, wonderful stay! - The Ships Inn was great - very comfortable, clean, and inviting. The rooms are spacious and the common areas are lovely. The restaurant wasn’t open during our (off-season) stay but there was a great breakfast spread each morning from their kitchen. Very centrally located but still quiet. Mary Lou and staff are wonderful. Would definitely recommend!
Brittney (10/5): Daffy weekend - Amazing!
Verified traveler (8/5): Great stay in a lovely inn ,perfect location! - Excellent location, building in good shape and the manager/hostess is wonderful. They will accommodate quickly and courteously. They do not have refrigerators in the rooms. Highly recommended!
Jodi (10/5): - Beautiful breakfast!
Alexis (10/5): Great place close to town. - Great location, modern conveniences with older charm, close to town, and with friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Verified traveler (10/5): Fun Nantucket escape. - Great place for a base to explore Nantucket. Breakfast very good and innkeeper very welcoming. Very enjoyable visit.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Great little B&B in a historic downtown building very close to the center of town in Nantucket. Rooms have been modernized with finishes but still retain most of their historic charm. Excellent restaurant located in the basement that serves a complimentary breakfast each morning to guests.
Verified traveler (10/5): Awesome B&B near Town - We took the car ferry from Haynnis. Upon arrival we wound our way through the quaint cobbled streets to our Inn and with some help from the Inn Keeper we finally found a place to park. We called down to the restaurant and they fit us in even though we did not have a reservation. The meal was fantastic and the dessert, a butter scotch souffle was a dream. We spent the next few days checking out the historic town, riding our bikes to Madeket Beach and the Sankaty light house and visiting the Whaling Museum. We ate at the Boarding House, Rose and Crown Pub, and Venuno. Except for the pub the prices were very upscale. The Ships Inn head staff, Bob and Mary Lou were fantastic.
Crystal (10/5): Lovely inn and innkeeper! - I made plans to spend time with 2 close friends months ago and was able to speak with Ms. Quayle directly even though it was off season. She was even more helpful once we arrived and had excellent recommendations for restaurants and tips on the island. Further, the inn is lovely, and immaculately clean. Having owned an antique house, I know how difficult it is to keep things fresh while maintaining the character. The inn is roughly a block or two from the shops & restaurants. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here! Thanks for a delightful stay.
Jessica (10/5): Amazing B&B - I have never been to Nantucket, nor stayed at any other hotel in the area, but this was one of the best B&B experiences I have ever had. First off - during high season, prices can be outrageous, but this B&B was very reasonably priced and was equal for the amenities. The included breakfast was absolutely amazing. The owners were always around to help with anything. Our room was huge which is very rare for a B&B. One issue was that the bathroom was small, but that was minor and didn't affect our stay. The living room and decor was inviting and so nice. There is also a great bar in the basement along with a top-notch restaurant. The location is also right down the street from the middle of town and everything is within walking distance. In the future, I wouldn't stay anywhere else!
richard (10/5): Great Hotel to please any quest. - We went with two other couples. From the moment we arrived the staff was extremely accommodating. All three couples agreed this hotel was the perfect choice. History, Charm, amazing staff. Mary Lou made sure every moment of every day we were happy. Couldn't thank her enough. Outstanding restaurant. Breakfast in the morning was home made and excellent. In town we would talk to other travelers on where we were staying, all heard how great the Ships Inn was. We confirmed their thoughts.
Susan (10/5): Great Place - We had a wonderful time at the Ship's Inn. There was plenty of room for the three of us and they went out of their way to ensure our comfort. Mary Lou was so helpful and solicitous. The Ship's Inn was very well located to the beautiful town of Nantucket and we enjoyed our time there very much.
Carole, Author (10/5): Excellent choice! - We had an excellent experience with the Ships Inn - room was charming; staff was excellent and responsive; the restaurant could not have been better; and the location was within walking distance from almost everything! We quite enjoyed our time!
