Why We Chose It
a historically distinguished hotels in Town — an 1845 brick Federal mansion built for a wealthy whaling merchant, now a 60-room National Historic Landmark inn at the geographic center of Nantucket Town with the island's longest-running restaurant and a storied addresses on the island. Nantucket properties often occupy historic buildings, so room size, stairs or elevator access, air-conditioning, parking, beach transportation, resort fees, and cancellation terms should be confirmed before booking.
What Stands Out
- National Historic Landmark — built 1845, the grandest private home in Nantucket's whaling heyday
- The original owner found it too grand and sold within two years — been an inn since 1846
- Tap Room: the most reliably lively bar in Town on any given night
- Broad Street location: the most central address on Nantucket
- 60 rooms across seven historic buildings — request rooms in the original mansion
