Adorable inn right in the center of town. Great location, easy to walk to the shops and restaurants. Nate the proprietor goes above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. The breakfast (quiche, fresh fruit, yogurt, pastries, granola) every morning is a nice perk and made

Great off season stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the Anchor Inn. Nate was great, very accommodating and helping our daughte rfind a quiet spot to study for her upcoming exams while we were there. He was full of information and the breakfast offering was a very nice compliment

The Anchor Inn is a great small hotel/bed and breakfast, located in easy walking distance to most sites. Natte, the caretaker, was awesome, answered all our questions and makes the best quiche! We will definitely tell all our friends about this place, and when we go back to Nantucket, we will stay here again!

Vintage Nantucket at its finest!

Our stay at a vintage Nantucket Inn was not only a walk back in history - but an absolute delight. We appreciated the beautifully made beds and luxurious linens, as well as the availability of beach chairs and beach towels - also soft and luxurious!

This was a lovely place to stay for Stroll. Everything is walkable, and while the room we stayed in was small, it was fine for 2 people. It’s an old house so that’s to be expected. Breakfast was nice, and while I am not a coffee drinker, the smell of a fresh pot was a lovely was to wake up in the morning. Staff is friendly and accommodating.

We were on a girls' weekend and we loved staying at the Anchor Inn. Nate and his staff were great and gave us great ideas of where to eat and what to do. The Inn was charming and very comfortable. We really enjoyed being able to sit in the living room after a long day of fun. Also, the quality of the bedding and towels was top of the line.

Amazing two night stay at the Anchor Inn. We had the Knowles room which was in the front of the property, great sunlight and views of the street and the side patio. Stayed with my boyfriend and the room was extremely spacious. Comfortable bed, friendly staff, amazing location. Quiet and quaint. Room had powerful AC and nice features with a sitting area and closet. we will be back next summer for sure!

Anchor Inn fabulous

The room was fabulous and the housekeeping impeccable. The breakfasts were amazing - bagels, yogurt, melon, strawberries, cereal. The showers were tiny - don't drop the soap, as you will have to get out of the shower to pick it up! But this is probably standard for these very old and historic homes. The proprieter was perfect - very helpful but never intrusive.

We had a great 2 night stay at Anchor Inn. Location is quiet but still so close to downtown that you can walk everywhere. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. I wish it had an elevator because getting our enormous suitcases to the third floor wasn’t easy but that wouldn’t keep me from staying here again. It’s an old, beautiful building. The breakfast they offered was very good! The innkeeper was always nearby and has great communication!

Perfect bed & breakfast

First time on the island and I don’t think we will ever stay at another place. It was perfect for our girls trip! We had a lovely time here. The room was clean, beautiful and decorated very nicely. Nate was very helpful with his tips and places to visit. The location was perfect too! We only had to get an uber from the airport but we walked to all the popular spots. 5-10 min walk to everything. I can’t wait to visit again!
