I just returned from a four night stay at The Gifford House. The rooms are very basic, but tidy and reasonably well decorated (very 1980's floral). The hotel staff are friendly and very hardworking. The hotel has absolutely zero charm and has all the feel of a boarding house but it's clean, suprisingly less noisy than one would think given... more

I liked the breakfast (one less thing to pay for) and I loved that this was so close to the Pied Pier and all the other stuff I like to see when I go to Ptown. This is a basic B&B. I didn't think the service was bad and was grateful for the included parking. I also appreciated that the... more

We loved our stay here. The building is a charming old historic building, but firmly put together. There are nice three bars on the premises. The Purgatory club downstairs is quieter that some of the other dance clubs, except on Sunday leather night, which is lots of fun. There is also a Thai restaurant on premises which we did not... more

If you're looking for a place to stay that has a great location, but you're not picky about the room and not bothered by the smell of cigarette smoke then it's fine. Right down the street from my favorite eateries (Spiritus Pizza for a late night snack and Cafe Heaven for breakfast). The Thai restaurant connected to the Inn is... more

When I found out that my usual bed & breakfast was unavailable due to scheduling conflicts (which were the fault of my travel companions, not the highly-esteemed guesthouse nor mine), I found myself out of my comfort zone. I'd gone for 6 years to the same place and now I needed something else. I contacted many guesthouses of similar merit... more

Poor quality inn, in my opinion, for the money they charge. Bar is dark and sleazy and often filled with low quality types (maybe townies). Manager is snooty and surly - apparently, professional people with real world accomplishments are beneath him. If he finds the time to serve you, it will not be because you are a fellow person, but... more

Have recently stayed at The Gifford House in for a quiet winter weekend in Provincetown. It is wonderful to have a year round restaurant in the hotel now. The basement nightclub is free to guests of the hotel. The club is one of the top three clubs in town. I have been staying at The Gifford House Inn for over... more

I have stayed in this place last year and I decided to book this one this time.. It is 3 story building with the raised entry level and several parking space on Carver street and Bradford street. The rooms are double occupancy all coming with the private bathrooms, some rooms have TV and have a front view and the top... more

As frequent visitors to Provincetown, we've passed The Gifford House many times, but never actually stayed there. For some unknown reason we always assumed it wouldn't be to our liking. Our assumption was erroneous. We needed a room just for one night this week, which is a near impossiblilty in high season in Provincetown when most lodging establishments require a... more
