"My husband and I stayed in the standard king in the basement. It was plenty big enough, the bed was comfy, the water pressure was excellent, the shower tiles were beautiful, and it was tastefully decorated. The gentleman that checked us in was so helpful with recommendations for restaurants. He even called to make our reservation for us. I can’t remember his name but he said he was originally from NYC. The hotel is only a block from the ferry terminal, a half block to the whaling museum and 2 bike rental places, and surrounded by restaurants. I would definitely stay here again!"

"The Inn was delightful. The charm of Nantucket was everywhere. Location was perfect for walking and getting the Wave. We spent a lot of time in the sitting room and even had our take out dinners in the dining area., fresh fish and clam chowder. We brought wine and snacks for our own happy hour. It was such a comfortable place to relax after all the walking during the day. The Anchor Inn was the perfect choice for an October getaway."
