Anchor Inn - Historic 3-star Nantucket hotel with continental breakfast and beach service

Located in a residential historic district on a quiet one-way street, this 11-room Nantucket hotel occupies an 1806 structure spread across three floors. Guest rooms, each named after historic whaling ships, feature private bathrooms and queen beds in most units. Anchor Inn provides complimentary continental breakfast from 8-10 AM, featuring housemade pastries, yogurt, and granola, served on an enclosed porch or garden patio. Beach towels, chairs, and a guest refrigerator are available for visitors. The property sits 0.5 miles from First Congregational Church and 0.5 miles from both the Whaling Museum and Greater Light. Notable dining venues within 0.5 miles include American Seasons, Dune, and Le Languedoc Bistro. Nantucket Memorial Airport is situated 6 miles from the property.

Pros

Complimentary coffee and tea available on the porch throughout the day

On-site resident innkeepers provide local expertise and suggestions

Located in a quiet residential neighborhood away from tourist crowds

Each room features unique historical decor

Cons

Three-night minimum stay required during peak season and special events

No pets allowed on the property

“Anchor Inn has the bones of a perfect Nantucket getaway, especially for couples or solo business travelers seeking a more intimate experience than a large hotel can provide. While some might find the continental breakfast a bit wanting, the location so close to town is a definite win. Plus, the dog-friendly stance is a major boon for travelers who hate to leave their companions behind.”
