Overall a very comfortable room. The air conditioner made too much noise and so that was a negative.

They have to get new mattresses. They are really bad. Couldn’t sleep more than 6am. I have to leave because my back hurts from it. Not worth it for the price

Perfect, charming stay

We had an incredible stay at the Blue Iris! First, the location COULD not be better and absolutely made the trip. We also had trouble finding a room that would be comfortable for 3 people and this one was amazing, it had 2 comfortable beds AND two bathrooms. We really enjoyed the extra touches such as happy hour and breakfast, and access to the bikes. Definitely recommend! My only critical feedback: the staff was very kind but not able to answer some of our questions, and it would go a long way to have some light bites such as nuts or chips included in the happy hour as well.

The Blue Iris is in an ideal location in Nantucket: easy walking distance to everything downtown but on a quiet side for rest and relaxation. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. The staff is friendly and professional. They even loan out beach towels and beach chairs - a big plus if you fly to the island!
