ROOM 207 was expensive, too small. The room was dark w/ no ceiling light, a disconnected table lamp and too few outlets. One shade was up and one was down because one didn't work properly. Doors stuck both in room, and outside bathroom. Adding insult to injury, room door alarm kept going off.There was a small refrigerator with nothing welcoming in it. No phone to reach personnel...and we were 3 flights up with no elevator, and no one to help us UP the steep, narrow staircase with all our luggage. It felt like, be grateful, because you are in Nantucket. Also in the am ONLY coffee was offered...3 flights down on the first floor. No value here.

My room was not much larger than the bed. No dresser, a makeshift closet, no place to open the suitcase except the floor, no chair, an inoperative safe, no cup or glass for a drink of tap water, and hugely overpriced. $700 plus per night. Ridiculous.

We were not able to access our room till 2 hours after check in. 6pm. I understand they offered an upgrade but it was minor considering I had already paid for a nice room and the upgrade was not substantial enough to warrant waiting for 2 hours while only being on the island one evening. We weren’t even able to use much of the amenities at this beautiful property because we had so much to do and reserved. Our dinner reservations were pushed a few hours which made us miss the sunset! It also seemed that the hotel was overwhelmed with guests checking in that the WiFi or property software program had significant issues loading which created an even longer wait and cluster of guests who seemed a little bit short tempered.it is a very beautiful hotel and we had a friend who helped launch life house who recommended this property specifically to us. Sad that it wasn’t the best of experiences.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Faraway Hotel on Nantucket, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! The moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the front desk staff, who were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. They made the check-in process smooth and even provided me with a map of the island, highlighting all the best spots to visit. The hotel itself was beautiful and impeccably maintained, with an exceptionally big king size room that provided a perfect retreat after a day of exploring the island. The amenities were top-notch, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job of keeping everything spotless. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Love this hotel so much, but the noise is really terrible. Between the walls and floors being thin, be ready to not sleep. Oh and the trash trucks every morning at 6:30am is also a joy. Beautiful place but not quiet at all.

The old floors squeaked loudly. Could hear water running down pipes and every step above us. Window 5 feet from next building and window. We saw chef working in kitchen, so we had to keep drapes always down.

It is a beautiful property and I would stay again. My only complaints are that the front desk is hard to contact and our room was very noisy making it hard to sleep.
