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.

Our room was comfortable and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The surroundings were pleasant; there was a nice sitting area directly outside the property. The proximity to the shops, restaurants, and attractions were very convenient.

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.

A cozy inn that truly feels like a home away from home. Bonus: the library in the upper floor has an excellent selection of books about Nantucket.

We had a lovely stay at the Chestnut House and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Nantucket. The location was perfect since it was centrally located in the town and in walking distance to so many shops, restaurants and attractions. The room was clean and cozy and the staff was always available to answer our questions. We loved how they provided beach items like towels and umbrellas.
