Worst people ever to own an inn. Came to stay this past week (June 2026) and brought my infant. I…read moredid not read the policy that states children under 12 are not allowed (which is my fault). However, we came in with our baby, and the owner Ray was so rude, it was unbelievable and disgusting actually. He kicked us out and said you cannot stay here but would offer us a refund since it was within 24 hours. I walked away extremely upset but understood the policy. I now called the owners wondering where my refund is and he LIED!!!! Stating he never said that, when my husband and I both heard him say that explicitly and we have no reason to lie. He stated he would give us the refund since it was within 24 hours. I will be reporting this charge to my credit card company as this is fraud if I have ever seen it. When I called back he said "people go on vacation to escape children, not so you can bring them with you". Disgusting people and have never seen treatment like this in my life.

My friend and I were excited for our trip to Chatham and had booked a room at the Old Harbor Inn…read moreseveral months in advance, after researching several options. The trip got off to a poor start when we were shown to our rooms and found that one of them had a "private bathroom just down the hall." We never expected that a guest room costing more than $450/night would not be ensuite. When we checked with the proprietors about this and asked if we could have another room, we were told they were full up and that we "just had to accept that we had made a poor choice." That was certainly the case as our interaction with the owners was quite an unpleasant experience. Many reviews mention that the Inn is "Welcoming," but for us it was anything but. The owners blamed us (apparently we didn't read the fine print) and they told us that they would be happy to have us leave and forfeit our deposit. We didn't. We stuck it out. The experience and the bathroom situation were a shame because there is a lot to like at the Inn. Apart from the owners, the staff were kind and helpful, the building and grounds are very attractive, the breakfast delicious, and the location was excellent.

Of course we had an unseasonably beautiful day to add to our experience but the location is wonderful for being near everything around Chatham.

Our room (#1) was immediately off the shared space by the door of the inn, so folks looking for more privacy and less noise from other guests should pick a different room. But we loved all the light we got during the day and the in room fireplace at night. In warmer months, there's a small porch off of this room as well (besides temperature, its a little too exposed to use in the winter as well). In the interest of indulging in some booze, we walked to two different restaurants in the evening: the Red Nun (straightforward cape sports pub) and Campari's. However, the walk to Campari's was a bit of a deathtrap considering there were no streetlights or sidewalks for much of the way. Go to to Red Nun if you value your life. Nick & Brian were consummate hosts, attentive and charming. Our housekeeper (Natalie?) was very sweet as well. The included breakfast was tasty and fresh. Don't skip the blueberry muffin, its delicious.

I've stayed at many 5 star hotels before and my stay at the Chatham Inn is by the best experience I've ever had. I literally can't recommend this place enough. I've spent a fair amount of career as a director for a market research firm and one of things we would preach is that differentiating on customer experience is key to winning in this age of the customer. Let me tell you, the Chatham inn literally puts on a master class from the moment you arrive. Arrival- I stumble into the lobby through the wrong entrance and the maitre d Lyn greets me by name and says we've been expecting you. (I was so blown away that she new my name, it made me feel so valued) Then when I went back to get my wife, Una met us on the walk path and helped us with our bags. (So nice!) Then Sherri the restaurant manager greeted us as well and let us know our dinner reservations were good to go. Then Lyn and Una both helped us to our beautiful room with the fire place where wine was on ice next to beautiful roses and chocolate that I ordered for my wife. By the time we relaxed we felt like we just arrived to stay with some friends. Literally everyone knew our names. Such awesome check in experience. Then the wife and I hopped out to get dinner, by the time we got back housekeeping had went in and tidied up our room. This was literally the best check in experience I've ever had. Dinner - so the next night I booked the 7 course Valentine's Day tasting. This was absolutely amazzzzingg. While we waiting for dinner, we had a wonderful conversation with Una, then Felix the beverage manner came over recommend some wine with dinner (side note h is so friendly and his wine reccos are spot on. I made a wine selection prior to arrival and he called and recommend a different one which was exactly what I was looking for!!), then Sherri the restaurant manager came over again just to check in with us, and then Kayla came over made sure we were all set as well. This all happened while we waited in the lobby for dinner... amazing. So when we got inside, we were greeted/seated by the owner Jeff (such a nice touch to see the owner working side by side with everyone). Then the waitress team was amazing. Our main waitress was Luz who was awesomeeeee. So thoughtful and friendly. But to be fair so was Elena, and Shawn. Shawn even had some wine sent back to the room for us to enjoy after dinner. Then Chef Isaac did the rounds and greeted all the guest. I could literally go on for days about how amazing my stay was. How this place got anything less than a 5 star review is mind blowing. If I could give them 6 stars I would. Thank you to Lyn, Una, Felix, Sherri, Luz, Shawn, Elena, and Kayla for making our stay a special one. Jeff you have a great team!

Best word to describe the Bradford Inn would be adequate. We spent about $320/night and stayed 3…read moredays in August. It's nothing spectacular. Nothing to write home about. Let me start off with the Good: The staff was friendly & helpful for the most part. And our room was very clean. Cleanliness is VERY important to me. Also, they are centrally located. They are located smack in the middle of downtown where many of the shops, spas, and restaurants are located. Even if you choose not to drive, you can have a pretty full vacation enjoying the sites, shops, and eateries within walking distance. A huge plus. Now for the Not So Good & the Plain Bad: Breakfast is included in the room rate. They serve the usual fare: assorted pastries/baked goods, cereal, bread, fruit, etc. But they only serve one hot item per morning. The item could be french toast, scrambled eggs, pancakes, etc. While we were there, french toast was served one morning and scrambled eggs on another. I ended up eating only half of a french toast. Not too good. Eggs? Meh. The breakfast is definitely disappointing compared to some of the more traditional bed & breakfasts I've experienced, but it's adequate. Like I said nothing spectacular. But nothing particularly bad either. The Bad? The bed squeaked with any type of movement. Not only that, it moved side to side, kinda like a waterbed (but not in a good way), whenever we moved even slightly . Needless to say, we didn't sleep as well as we hoped. They should invest in new beds. All in all, it was an adequate place. Would I drop more than $300/night to stay here again? Probably not. But if you are a heavy sleeper with a sweet tooth for cold pastries, this could be the place for you.

This may not be the hotel for you if you like a hot shower in the morning and appreciate a complimentary breakfast that consists of more than just fruit and stale bagels. Booking our trip 2 weeks prior to our stay I was happy to note that they offered a pretty good rate of 220 a night considering the area. That said, I am disappointed to note that the front desk couldn't be more disrespectful and impolite. No wonder the short- notice vacancy. Nowhere on the website or the promotional material did we see that children were not welcome. When I checked in, leaving my husband and mother in the car with our 2 children, the woman at the front made it clear that she was unhappy that we made our reservations online, and for that reason our 2 booked rooms could not be in the same building even though the considerable vacancy in the hotel. I explained we had young children who wanted to be close to their grandmothers room but she was unmoved and never said a word about the children - but only disregard for the fact that we booked it online. The next morning when we came down for breakfast, another woman at the front desk glared at my children and asked if we were staying at the hotel. When I replied yes, she asked for my room numbers and said that children were not allowed in the hotel and that because I did it online I wouldn't have known that. (And?). She sat us in a small stuffy room three rooms off of the main dining area and returned 20 minutes later to tell us we could go get our food at the buffet. Every single time we passed the desk from then on, they kept coming up to one of the adults in our party to restate the no children allowed policy. Important to note, is that even though they admitted our kids were very good ( and they were, ages 6,7) they said that they felt badly for the other guests that they had to "see them." My advice is not to stay here. If booking online is such a problem, then take your information off of expedia, trip advisor and hotels.com or just tell people at check-in instead of constantly harassing your guests over their stay. No wonder there are upcoming plans for the Bradford Inn to be redeveloped into residential.
