Our first time in Block Island, we were out for a morning walk when we noticed they were opening for breakfast. Their coffee was excellent and refilled plenty. My husband said that those were the best pancakes he ever had. The staff is very helpful and pleasant. We enjoyed the views.

Over the years we have visited Block Island several times. When the ferry comes into the Old Harbor your eyes are always drawn to the historic National Hotel. We had previously eaten at the restaurant and had dined on their front porch. We always wanted to stay at the hotel, so this time over the Memorial Day weekend we did.... More

Quaint, comfortable, small rooms, but the view was fabulous. We were late in the season but the weather was warm, the prices were very reasonable. No A/C so be warned for the summer. The breakfast (included) was great as well. Great location--in the center of town. Cocktails on the porch; just a lazy relaxing time.

I stayed here for two nights at the end of the summer (Aug. 30 to Sept. 1, 2012)...I was fortunate to get a room just a few weeks before traveling to the island, and slept in a corner room on the second floor (Room 215)...it was advertised as having a cross-breeze, and with both windows open, the room was never...

This is a favorite place of mine to relax and just have a bucket of clams and a beer. Can't beat the view of the harbor and the people are usually pretty nice. I have not stayed hear but would recommend it based on the quality of the restaurant.

My husband had a great banana mudslide and bacon, swiss & mushroom burger on the patio out back with our golden retriever, it was perfect. The service was attentive and the food was great. We split the burger, it was huge & substituted sweet potato fries, yummay!

We love BI thats why we chose it for a bachelorette party we had in August. Booked two suites here for two nights and they were perfect. We had five people in each and had a cot placed in the room for the fifth person. Since the hotel does not have AC though I would highly recommened spending up and... More

We love old New England wooden hotels so with the five star rating from Trip Advisor in mind, we just spent three nights at the National Hotel. We did opt for a larger room as we have stayed at old hotels in the past and knew the regular room would be tiny. The room was spotless, the bathroom small but... More

Great spot and many laughs in this smaller than lower Manhattan size hotel room! Would definitely recommend and would certainly stay again but be advised...rooms are tiny, beds are squeaky (neighbors will know what you're doing!), you can hear the lady next door pass wind and the shower is like washing up in a phone booth! Other than that it's... More
