Older property Great garden and good location
This was definitely an older property. It was decorated nice and the beds were comfortable. Easy access in and out any time of day. However, there was a musty or damp smell that was quite uncomfortable for me. I smelled it throughout the entire suite. It was the worst near the sink in the bathroom. I will say that it seemed to have dissipated a little on the last day there, so maybe it was something transient.

A Nantucket gem
This was a really nice little hotel. Located in the very center of Nantucket town.
Our room was like a small suite and really cozy. Clean and nice. We can really recommend this hotel.

Best Nights Sleep
Check in with Ian was a breeze. We arrived early but our room was ready so we were able to check in and freshen up. The 2 room suite was cute, comfy and very homey. We had the best nights sleep of our entire trip. The bed, the pillows and the bedding were perfect. Location is great, easy walk to everything.

Comfortable and great location.
The Chestnut House inn is in a great location. Quiet side street (we were here in early June so before high season). Places to eat all around for all meals. Easy 5 min walk from ferry docks. We really appreciated that we could leave our overnight bags there and explore Nantucket until our room was ready. The bathroom was small but had all the necessities; the sofa bed was reasonably comfortable (other person stayed in the queen bed); liked that there was both AC and also that the windows could be opened to leave a nice cross breeze coming through the room. Would definitely stay here again.
