Very subpar room for the price. Bathroom had mold in the tile caulking. Sloped ceiling. Hubby kept bumping his head on it.. found some random hairs in the room. But, bed is very comfortable, so there’s that.

Hotel is the best deal in town! Be prepared for a small room with big furniture. It’s all very nice but definitely tiny. Bathroom is not very well maintained or cleaned but again it’s so tiny it would be a challenge to clean quickly. Bar and restaurant is very nice but doesn’t open until 5 so if you want to spend time enjoying the space during the day BYOB.

We did enjoy our stay here. Excellent location with equally excellent restaurant on site. Beach chairs and towels are available but there is only one umbrella for the hotel. We arrived at 7am to get it when the lobby opens and the young kid who was running the desk showed up about 45min late to work. We left to grab a coffee which was also promised to be available at 7am and by the time we got back at 8am they had given it away. The staff member couldn’t have cared less which I didn’t find accommodating. I also think at $1500 per night they could have a few more umbrellas on hand. That being said the other staff was mostly lovely but a bit more training would help for the younger staff.

Walkways were completely decorated with many exotic plants and shrubs. The hallways and stairs were air conditioned. The rooms were clean and complete with minibar fridge and bathroom with upscale shower. Bed was comfy. Room rate was the most we’ve ever paid, but no regrets for choosing Faraway Hotel on Nantucket. Walking distance to harbor ferry, restaurants, bars, shops and also to the shuttle for the Cisco brewery.

The public facing part of the property is lovely. Our room/stay was fair. I knew it wasn’t going to be large, but I didn’t expect so much wasted space. There was only 1 hook in the entire place (in the bathroom). Where should we hang our bathing suits? Where should we hang our towels? There was one large wall that had plenty of space to put hooks. And the only thing they used that wall for was a non-smart television (which was very disappointing on its own!) and a very tiny piece of art that didn’t go with the decor at all. There was a lovely armoire, but again with wasted space. It needs shelves! There was also a nightstand that could have contained shelves but instead was simply decorative. The air conditioner was extremely loud; I reached down on the floor to get something that fell and found all kinds of disgusting dust bunnies. Two of the days we were there, our room was not serviced at all. Both of those days someone knocked on the door and asked if we wanted service. I said yes, that we were leaving in just a couple of minutes. Apparently leaving in a couple of minutes is code for please don’t come service my room? Also, there was no phone in the room, so in order to get anything you had to go walk to the front desk and ask for it. We were not terribly far away, but we were far enough that it was inconvenient. The staff was nice, but they need to learn to say hello even if they’re in the middle of something! Overall I’ve paid less and gotten more, even on Nantucket.
