Our stay at The Brass Lantern was the best bed and breakfast experience we’ve ever had. It was quiet, comfortable, and the staff was delightful. From the front steps you could walk in any direction and feel like you were walking back in time. The rooms and inn were beautiful and complement the quintessential Nantucket vibe of the neighborhood. We will be returning and hope to be greeted by Sharon our fantastic hostess!

Extremely deceiving room photos.
Hotel booker beware. Owner uses very misleading room photos. We paid for an upgraded deluxe room and got a room the size of a closet with a ridiculously obstructive ceiling. See picture. European size rooms are bigger. This was a classic “bait and switch” tactic. On a positive note, the Service staff was great and so was the weather. Two thumbs down for the room.

Our stay was wonderful. The facility was well kept by attentive staff and they were available easily at most times. Rooms are small, as to be expected, but we'll appointed and clean. While it may lack the trappings of some larger hotels, it's also available at a more reasonable price. It's quaint and comfortable with a wonderful host in Sharon. Close to town, easy in and out. This is a reliable and cozy spot.
