I think it is a bit misleading. It called an Inn but it’s really a bed and breakfast. People were noisy coming in at night. Nobody offered to help with bags up 3 flights. Pillows were uncomfortable and had makeup stains

The Palmer House Inn was a beautiful B&B located within walking distance of shops, dining and Martha's Vineyard ferry. The first thought my wife had was that "they thought of everything!" Every detail was attended to. Inn owner Tom was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. We have stayed at many B&Bs and this one was one of the best!

Owned by a lovely and welcoming couple, the Palmer House Inn boasts a property that honors prominent writers. The Inn’s mascot Brody and the staff truly made the stay at the beautifully aged Victorian home one of a kind. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer.

Best B&B

Amazing property and stay at The Palmer House Inn. Very gracious hosts, delicious breakfast and amazing room. Very clean and comfortable bed with the most amazing linens. I did not want to get out of bed. Beautiful property and plenty of parking at no charge. Felt like I left all of the world's worries behind .... Gardens so beautiful and the attention to detail on every item considered. We would definitely stay again. Brodie, their dog, was just an added bonus when we checked in. Very memorable part of our vacation.

A nice getaway from me and my husband

Lovely antique furniture with very comfortable mattress. Bathroom shower a little tight. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Cooked to order breakfast with all the fixins. Coffee, juice, omelettes etc. Owners care. Piles of cookies for your afternoon pickup. Getting the King bed next time. Will be returning often. 😊❤️
