Nantucket hotels

Top tips for finding the perfect Nantucket hotel deal

• Most of the best hotels on Nantucket Island are located in Nantucket Town, a small, concentrated area near the Nantucket ferry dock.
• There are several inns along Broad Street (the main street leading out from the wharf) and East Chestnut Street (one block to the south of Broad Street).
• Two excellent hotels in Nantucket are 21 Broad, which offers spacious, traditional New England-style decor with a modern touch, and Vanessa Noel Hotel on the corner of Chestnut and Centre Street.
• Travelers hoping to spend their holidays near the beach should consider the popular, upscale White Elephant Hotel, which is located beside Children’s Beach.
• Harborview Nantucket, located on Washington Street about a half-mile south of the Nantucket ferry dock, is another waterfront option just steps from the beach.
• Several hotels are situated near Nantucket’s Whaling Museum, including Periwinkle Inn across the street from the museum, and Greydon House, which is just around the corner.
• The Quaker Meeting House is another interesting museum in the Nantucket Historic District, and 76 Main is a popular hotel on Main Street, one block north of the Meeting House.
• Barnacle Inn, located one block south of the museum on Judith Chase Lane, is a cozy bed-and-breakfast hotel situated in one of Nantucket’s many historical buildings.
