August in Nantucket

We loved the hotel, the courtyard, and the proximity to all of Nantucket. It was an amazing location, with great rooms, great service, and a wonderful bar, restaurant, and lounge. All of the employees were wonderful as well. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Sister Ship the associated bar, was a great spot. The outside cushions were a bit dirty, but the staff was excellent and did what they could to keep things clean. The beds were comfortable. The shared bathroom space was a bit tough at times, and the bathrooms weren't great. Overall it was a great experience, I would stay again just not share the bathroom.

The area of the hotel we stayed at had shared bathrooms. We were not aware of this at time of booking. Most likely would not consider this again.

I liked the location of the property in proximity to the town, food, shopping and distance. Staff were friendly. We were very disappointed in the room. We were on the 3rd floor with a slanted ceiling which was okay but not desirable. The worst part was the air conditioning. It was HOT in our room at night making it an awful night's sleep. Thankfully we were only there one night. There is no fan in the room and no one to call in the evening to fix the AC. If we were staying another night we would have complained about the room. Very disappointed considering it was an expensive nightly cost for the room.

Location is great. Property is very nice, some staff are very helpful and very polite, others are rude and pretty useless. The rooms are really hit or miss. I’ve stayed many times in most categories of room, some again are good, some are tiny and many are noisy, partly due to the building layout and partly due to adjoining doors and very thin walls. I would stay again but it’s not one of the best hotels here, the bike use is a nice perk, but offered by many.

Unacceptable Disregard for Accessibility & Health

Our stay at Faraway in Nantucket was unacceptable. I informed the property that my 78-year-old mother has COPD and cannot climb stairs. Despite this, we were placed on the 4th floor with no elevator. When we requested a room change—offering to take any downgrade—they refused and dismissed our concerns completely. This is not only a failure in hospitality, but also a disregard for basic accessibility standards and ADA compliance. Guests with health conditions deserve safe accommodations. This experience was stressful, dangerous, and deeply disappointing. I will never return and strongly caution others, especially anyone with mobility or health concerns, to avoid this property.

The hotel does not make it clear that some of the guest room do NOT have their own bathroom on their website and with room descriptions on third party sites. Simply stating, “shared bathroom” with no specific details or images is unclear and in my opinion, incredibly deceiving. The shared bathroom experience unfortunately made our stay at the hotel unenjoyable. From the moment we arrived, the bathroom was not cleaned, I got locked in the bathroom and it took over 20 minutes for the maintenance staff to come and unlock the door, and when we did use the shower, there was no soap in the shower stall so we had to use shampoo. To pay that type of price point for a hotel room, I would expect that it would have its own bathroom. On top of that, the amount of narrow stairs that we had to get to our room was also a unexpected, and disappointing surprise. I will not be recommending this hotel to any of my family or friends who will be travelling to the island in the future. In all due respect, I think I should be partially compensated for my stay.
