Very poor customer service / hospitality. The women at the front desk are very brusk. I asked for a late checkout and was granted an extra 30 minutes (from 11am to 11:30am). At 11:27am my door was simultaneously being banged on and I was being called to hustle me out. Despite their apparent urgency (on a Sunday in October no less) to get me to leave the room they failed to send the bellman to assist with my luggage down the two steep flights of stairs. I then left my luggage with the front desk and wanted to run out to get coffee ahead of my flight. It was pouring rain and I asked if there was an umbrella I could borrow. Despite checking out 5 minutes prior I was quite rudely informed that umbrellas are only for guests and are only located in guest rooms. I will not be returning to the Jared Coffin House.…
Stayed for 4 days. Perfect weather and was able to tour, go to the beach, walk around town, shop, and eat at great restaurants. The restaurant here is great! Probably the best clam chowder we have had on the island. Nice simple breakfast available. Staff friendly and accommodating. Room was nice! Couldn’t have had a better experience!
This B&B is a 3 story brick mansion just a few blocks up from the harbor waterfront. Like everything in Nantucket, a little pricy, but the continental breakfast was outstanding and amenities like bicycles, beach chairs, and beach towels included made a big difference. Broad St. is a commercial street with shops and restaurants. One block away is Main St. which also has many shops and restaurants down to the waterfront. The staff was friendly and helpful which always makes a stay anywhere more memorable.
clean comfortable and easy to get to. We went in April during Daffy and we loved it. easy walk downtown and the staff was very helpful, in fact one of them gave me their parking place. The morning breakfast was great too! just a short drive up the road from the steamship
We could not have been more impressed & felt more comfortable than our stay at Jared Coffin House. The staff is amazing and is just so kind. We stayed in the Mary Starbucks Suite…it was amazing! Celebrated our 45th anniversary & Jared Coffin House made it very special!
The morning breakfast has everything for people who have allergy’s to picky eaters. Everyone is super nice. It’s a great stay for people who have 2 or more people. It’s in the center of the main area. They also have a great restaurant they own next to them. The steak at the restaurant is the best! I have done a review so check it out!😊
What a gem of a hotel! This is a grand, old hotel that is an easy walk from the Ferry area. The hotel is beautifully maintained. The rooms are gorgeous and very comfortable. Cannot beat the location. The staff is wonderfully friendly and accommodating.
My room was the size of a shoe box! The bathroom was TINY. I had to turn my head sideways to rinse my mouth or I'd hit my head on the wall over the sink! The front desk staff was snooty, though the other staff was nice. No elevator, so you have to walk up 2 flights of stairs to get to your room. The morning breakfast was okay.... but no tables to sit and eat at... only couches or chairs and a coffee table. The only good part of staying here is that it was within walking distance to just about everything. If I ever come back to Nantucket, I will choose a different place to stay.
We were looking for an accommodation of quality that didn't require us to take out a second mortgage. We were pleasantly surprised by the Jared Coffin house. Service was excellent. They even had free bikes and a courtesy vehicle available. I needed to do some work while visiting and they found a place for me to get it done. The shower was perhaps THE BEST I've had at any Massachusetts Inn or Hotel. Very high pressure and lots of hot water. It was a real pleasure! Their continental breakfast was extremely basic. No eggs. I usually had a Bagel and Yogurt. Over-all it was well worth what we paid and I would recommend!
The Jared Coffin House in Nantucket is a great hotel to stay at, especially with its amazing location within the heart of the town of Nantucket. It is close to almost everything you would want to do in Nantucket, including a bus stop, the Whaling Museum, beaches, and the Juice Bar. Pro Tip: If you want an after-dinner treat, head to the Juice Bar at 12 Broad St for the best ice cream in Nantucket. (Don’t be deterred by the line, it’s worth it) The complimentary breakfast in the morning is very good, but be sure to wake up in time to get it. The people are very nice there, and this is a great hotel overall minus the price.
