    We go here every year, and wouldn't change a thing. Perfect for kids, with games, a gym, a pool table, and a separate adult pool for nights without the kiddos. The staff is so kind and accommodating, they always go the extra mile. I just can't emphasize that enough! The rooms are gorgeous. It's expensive, my only complaint, but it's Nantucket. The location is great too, so close to the beach AND the city. I can take a morning walk to breakfast in three minutes and to the beach in 15.

    Service service service. Excellent hotel. The entire staff goes above and beyond and are all so genuinely kind. My son loved the freshly baked cookies every day of our stay and the hotel restaurant was fabulous. Kids club, kids pool and adult only pool, pet friendly, clean, we loved the dvd library as well on the first floor... the list goes on. Fabulous hotel can't wait to come back.

    Wow, this hotel is the definition of a 5 star review. From staff and customer service to the hotel itself and our stay, this was a hotel that all of us enjoyed and plan to return to if we were to choose a hotel in Nantucket to stay at. The room itself was very spacious and clean. Depending on the room you book, you can sleep a good number of people. One of our family friends (group of 2) got a room that could sleep 7! The front desk was super friendly and helpful. They even gave us recommendations on biking to Sconset Beach and we were glad we took their advice. You can arrange for shuttle pickup from the ferry dock which is recommended because you won't want to haul your stuff from the ferry dock to the hotel on the cobblestone. Breakfast was included with our stay which was eggs any style or pancakes. Check out was at 10 and I wish it was extended until at least 11. The only thing I regret from this trip was only staying 1 night. We should have done 2 at least! Overall this is your hotel to stay at on Nantucket, it's worth shelling out the extra bucks for this great hotel!

    In a word -Delightful! From the moment you arrive till the time you leave, every person, every point of contact is pleasant, friendly and focused on you. We were their for a corporate event. We were met at the doc by a friendly outgoing driver who set the stage for customer service. We were greeted by a front desk staff that wanted to help! Each day we stopped by, for a question, directions or even on the timing of when the newspapers would arrive, they had a genuine smile and offers to help. We enjoyed the continental breakfast each day and we loved the deck and the fire "pits". The bike's easy walking access to town and local beaches made this a perfect get-away. We loved our room and amenities in the room and the downstairs gym and playrooms were clean and bright. We need to go back when the weather is warmer so we can enjoy the pool!

    I can not say enough good things about this place. No stone was left unturned , every detail was thought of to guarantee an outstanding vacation experience for their guests. This has to be one of the best if not the best vacation experience I have had, from the 1934 vintage Ford bus which met is at the ferry dock, the careful handling of our bags, the speedy check in which included beach buckets filled with goodies for our three grandchildren, free lemonade and fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and delicious chocolates waiting for us in our well appointed suite. The suite was large and comfortable with a kitchenette a full size refrigerator microwave and full set of dishes and utensils. The living room had a large flat screen TV and a well stocked library with some excellent reading for adults and children. We had three large bedrooms and three large well appointed bathrooms. The unit also had a washer and dryer with detergent and fabric softener. Beach chairs and full size golf umbrellas were also provided with pool towels. The hotel had a very nice off lobby game room stocked with a full library and dvd's for guest use. They also hosted an excellent wine and cheese party there. The lower level had a pool table and the spa and gym which had everything you could want. The grandkids enjoyed the Kids Club each morning from 9 to 12. They took them on trips to the beach and aquarium and had a number of games and activities. The lap pool and main pool were heated and had a number of things for the kids to use. The hot tub and sauna and large cabanas were enjoyed by the adults. At night they hosted a S'mores party for the kids,we enjoyed them also. The staff here does not seem to have "no" in their vocabulary. Every request was promptly responded to. The grands were looking forward to the daily three pm fire truck ride, but the battery died. No problem they got the bus and gave everyone a grand tour of the area. Everything here exceeded my expectations. Thanks to each and every member of the staff from the general manager to the young people who took such good care of the grandkids each morning to the servers in the restaurant who knew all our names and supplied a delicious breakfast buffet each day. The berry selection was outstanding. This was a truly special time that I hope to repeat one day.

Brant Point is located on the top floor (3rd floor) of the Inn. The stairs leading to this room are VERY steep so please keep this in mind when booking. You will have to carry your bags too. The room itself is tastefully decorated and the bathroom is newly renovated. The view is good but not great. You can see the harbor but a few other homes & trees obstruct a lot of the view. The bathroom is fantastic! We loved the rain shower head and the LED mirror. It has ample room and plenty of storage. They provide an iron, ironing board and hairdryer in the room along with basic toiletries. Breakfast is served daily. You must sign up via text the evening before. They provide you with a link and you make your selections from there. You can take the tray back to your room, eat in the dining room or on the patio. Coffee, hot tea , water and fruit are available all day in the dining room. Fresh baked cookies are also put out in the late afternoon. The Inn is centrally located and all the shops and restaurants are within walking distance. We really enjoyed strolling the beautiful streets of Nantucket. It is also very close to the ferry and Whaling Museum. You can rent bikes and Jeeps near by too. We walked to Brandt Point lighthouse - it was not far at all. We enjoyed our time in Nantucket and would definitely recommend The Brass Lantern Inn. It was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast and we couldn't have been more pleased! The grounds are nice, the rooms are clean and well appointed! We highly recommend getting a Jeep to explore the whole island and all of the lighthouses! Madaket Beach was an amazing place to catch the beautiful sunset!

We were extremely disappointed with this hotel, both the product as well as the service quality. For 750 pre tax, we expected a higher quality level, namely: -the rooms were old and my parents room (terrace king) had a smell. The rooms were dingy and the bathrooms were extremely dated. The terrace room went for a premium and the terrace was dirty to the point they never went out there (ground floor) -the lobby was tiny and not a place to spend more than 2 mins. It's full of luggage that is being stored and very uninviting -the rooms are marketed as breakfast included when you book but you have to choose between a croissant and oats and you can pour yourself some coffee that is on a warmer -most of the time, the front desk person is actually hanging out in the kitchen and they come out after you make your presence known. -outside of the croissant and coffee program, there is no food, cafe, or restaurant. You'll need to walk over to sister ships / faraway which has lots of offerings -in general I'd say the service quality is very low. They run extremely lean on staffing (maid plus 1 desk person) and the front desk folks are really only focused on checking you in. And the overhead saved by having a skeleton crew working does not get passed on the customer. -I called several times in advance of arrival and most of those calls were never answered, the phone just rings. I did catch a front desk clerk over the phone at some point and asked for some recs. She said she'd email and never did. I ran into her upon check out and she commented, "oh hey sorry I never emailed you those recs". So there is no concierge service -Between no lobby to relax in for a few moments, no restaurant, no reasonable breakfast though breakfast was advertised, no staff, and lousy rooms I dont see how this hotel charges more than $300-400 per night. It's a place to sleep and spend no time otherwise. At every turn, the hotel was a major let down. It was a damper on our trip. I believe the hotel requires complete operational revamp or major price reduction/50 percent. The value you get for the price point is completely upside down. Hope this helps someone to avoid the mistake we made staying there.

It was almost like renting our own little nantucket cottage with a private entrance to our suite from the neighborhood outside. The service was impeccable as well as all the little, decadent, included perks. Every morning there are amazing pastries in the reception area. I got an assortment of danishes, croissants, and muffins thinking to just sample a bit. I ate it ALL. Each room gets their own drip coffee and nespresso machine. In the afternoons they set out cookies, and in the early evenings are wine and cheese. There are also complimentary bicycles, which allowed me the chance to check out quite a few of the local beaches and lighthouses nearby. One afternoon we went to the pool and enjoyed our private cabana and snacks, drinks, and even fresh fruit! They even provided us with sunscreen and signed copies of nantucket-y beach reads. Seriously, they've thought of everything. Such a relaxing vacation and I hope to come back one day!
