Staying here in the off season is a real treat. Rates are lower and town is not so crowded. The stay was quiet, clean and comfortable. But the location is great, right in town, so it's easy to get to great restaurants and shops.

Very convenient location! Great owners. We have been staying here every summer for many years and always look forward to going back. Most rooms are two room suites. We have our favorite rooms. Won't be disappointed.

Thank you so much for such a loving, caring place to stay. You and your daughter were like family to me. The accommodations were absolutely perfect for me and my two sons. We slept late as it was such a pleasant, peaceful location but right in the heart of everything. We rented bikes and had the best time ever catching... More

I've stayed at this B&B several times, and the location is AWESOME (you can hear delivery trucks in the morning though). It's a super easy walk (with your luggage) from any of the boat docks (don't rent a car - it's really hard to park in town). The owner has handmade rugs, blankets, and paintings throughout the house which gives... More

This is a B&B without the breakfast. Instead, they give you coupons which are good at 2 local restaurants. We thought this was a benefit, so that instead of getting the typical continental breakfast served at Nantucket B&Bs, we could get a hot breakfast and pay just a bit more. (The French toast at Arno's is outstanding.) However, if you... More

The owners of this B&B has been in business here for over 30 years. Rooms are nice. Very close to every thing in old town. I would stay in the main house rather than the cottage on the side. better ans less money.

The house is located right in the middle of Nantucket town, which is very convenient for restaurants and shopping. The owners are very helpful with suggestions.... More

The Chestnut House is a simple, lovely, quaint and comfortable accommodations. The best part: situated near the heart of beautiful downtown Nantucket Island. The two owners, Jerry & Jeannette, are gracious hosts. As a matter of fact, they are talented artists as well. The overall experience exceeds our expectations and if we go back to Nantucket, certainly the Chestnut House... More

My wife and I try to go every year. Cozy, hospitable friendly and convenient. The negative reviews must come from folks who issue negative reviews everywhere they go. Robert in Virginia

It was surprisingly difficult to find reasonably-priced accommodations for a family with children for a long July weekend on Nantucket. We resorted to a Nantucket hotel service to find Chestnut House and made our final decision based on TripAdvisor reviews. This is a quaint old house with a lot of character in a very convenient location. If you want the... More
