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!

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!

Bathroom 3 by seven feet, you must step around the toilet to gain entrance, “couch” in room is 6 inches above the floor, bed mattress collapses to the middle, steep narrow stairs make it hard to negotiate luggage. Proprietor was a great guy but his building a little too “old Nantucket” for us.

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!
