  Stunning Venue, Best Food, Incredible Team

  There are not enough good things to say about the Nantucket Hotel!!! Cara and Makenzie were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. They were able to answer all my questions throughout my year of planning, provide their expertise when needed, help curate the perfect timeline, and mostly importantly were able to understand what we wanted. Our wedding was incredible thanks to the amazing team at the Hotel!! The transportation we booked through the hotel was perfect, driving us around the island with the best vibes. The venue itself is stunning and the cocktail hour space/reception area setup was done even better than I could have envisioned. We received so many compliments about the food, mostly that it was the best wedding food that our guest have ever had. The entire event ran seamlessly. I think most importantly was that every single person we interacted with at the Hotel throughout the entire weekend were the nicest people ever, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed, truly they made the event!! 11/10 recommendation

  Elegance and First Class Service

  I could not recommend The Nantucket Hotel more enthusiastically as a wedding venue. It is as first class a property as you'll find anywhere, but what truly sets this place apart is the people. The service we received from everyone was something I cannot adequately put into words.
  
  Rachel, Michael, Sharon and Jamie, to name just a few, treated us like family. Whatever we wanted, whenever we wanted, always with a smile. My wife got ready at a house her family had rented for the weekend that did not have a large full length mirror.... so the hotel packed one into a van, brought it over, and left it there to be used for more than 24 hours.
  
  When we had our tasting, Michael was adamant that whatever we wanted, they can make it, even if we don't see it on their list .... and they knocked it out of the park. People raved about the food in general, and do not get me started on the late night bites (HIGHLY recommend doing this, btw, you and your guests will very much appreciate it when they roll out these trays at midnight). People still mention the grilled cheeses and sliders to me now, 8 months later. The passed appetizers, the main course, dessert, and the signature cocktails created for the event were all incredibly done.
  
  Jamie, the GM, oversaw and coordinated everything to perfection. They supplied transportation to our welcome dinner Thursday night, and our post wedding send off at Cisco Brewery without question. Everything was thought of. There was never a stressful moment during the entire weekend, which we cannot thank them enough for. We had total peace of mind b/c the Nantucket Hotel handled everything.
  
  When we left on Monday, smiles were plastered on our faces and there were hugs all around for all. Everyone from wait staff to bartenders to cleaning personnel treated us with such affection and kindness.
  
  I could go on and on. I have not even mentioned the suite we stayed in that is without doubt the best hotel room on the island. Absolutely reach out to them if you're planning your event on Nantucket - I have no doubt you will end up going with them once you speak to them. And I have no doubt you will be writing a glowing review yourself, once it is over.

  The perfect wedding venue!!

  My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Nantucket Hotel on September 8, 2018 and we couldn’t have chose a more perfect venue.
  
  Nantucket is a special place for us, and we knew we needed to get married there, we just didn’t know where. We looked around at many venues, but the second we walked in the door at the Nantucket Hotel, we knew we found the perfect place. We were greeted by genuinely nice staff members the second we arrived. The owner was even there and was so welcoming. The N doesn’t have your typical stuffy, carpeted ballroom, hotel feel. The decor is upscale, Nantucket charm at its finest. The ballroom is stunning, with wood floors throughout, a large dance floor, and stage for a band. We had about 160 people at our wedding and the ballroom accomodated our guests wonderfully.
  
  Rachel was our event planner at the N from the start and was such a pleasure to work with. She was very organized, responsive, and accommodating to our needs. We didn’t hire an outside wedding planner, as we wanted to do everything ourselves. The hotel was a huge help to us from beginning to end, and executed our plan flawlessly. Rachel helped bring our dream wedding to life. It was truly perfect. She also worked very well with all of my vendors (florist, photographer, etc).
  
  Michael, the F&B Manager, was also amazing. We were very picky about our food and drink selections, and he was so patient and accommodating. Our guests were raving about how good the food and drinks were.
  
  We could go on for days, raving about our experience at The Nantucket Hotel. We had the best weekend of our lives, and our guests said our wedding was one of the best they had ever been to. Rachel, Michael, Jamie, and the entire N staff were incredible. We wish we could press the repeat button.
  
  Every time we come back to Nantucket, we make sure to stop at the N to relive the magic of our wedding night and say hello to the wonderful staff that helped make our day unforgettable.

  Far exceeded our expectations!

  My husband and I were married on Nantucket in April 2018 and we held our reception at The Nantucket Hotel. My family as well as my husband's could not have been more pleased with our experience there. We felt so special having all our guests and family staying with us at the hotel; the wedding seemed to extend well beyond the reception itself - which wonderful!!
  I cannot say enough about the entire staff at The Nantucket Hotel. They were a pleasure to work with in the lead up to our wedding, but then they went far above and beyond in taking care of us throughout the weekend. The entire team was so warm and caring, which really made it a wonderful experience for us.
  Prior to our wedding, some friends and family grumbled about traveling via car, ferry etc for our wedding because they were unfamiliar with Nantucket. By the time our wedding weekend wrapped up, we heard enumerable compliments that our guests have not had that much fun in decades!
  We will always have great affection for The Nantucket Hotel and we can't wait to one day show our children what a special experience it is there, so that they too appreciate all the charms of Nantucket.

  My wife and I got married on Nantucket in April 2017 and had our reception at The Nantucket Hotel. We had been planning our wedding for over 2 years and were anxious to see how everything would come together. First off, Rachel Dodson (the events/wedding manager) was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was accommodating, flexible, worked within our budget, and helped us pull off what many of our guests are considering "the best wedding they've ever been to." The hotel staff, led by General Manager Jamie Holmes, provided industry leading hospitality, accommodating our guests and their every need. In many instances, they shuttled our family and friends around the island on short notice and all the while, would give them a personal tour sharing fun facts about the history and culture of Nantucket. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch. The Nantucket Hotel shuttled all 145 of our guests to and from the church. Rachel and Food and Beverage Director, Michael Blaksteen, setup the cocktail hour and ballroom better than we ever anticipated. The waitstaff kept passing hors d'oeuvres in bountiful fashion as we hoped. The service of our main meal was incredible as servers began placing dinners just 10-15 minutes into the reception. The morning after, our guests kept telling us how beautiful the rooms were and how The Nantucket Hotel staff treated them "like family." My wife and I would recommend The Nantucket Hotel to anyone - whether it be for a wedding or a casual weekend get away. It will be one of, if not, the best hotel experiences you've ever had.

  My husband and I got married at The Nantucket Hotel in December 2016. Yes.... December on Nantucket and I would do it all over again. First of all, the planning was seamless. I live on the South Shore of MA and visited just a few times to specifically plan the wedding but it was incredibly easy via email and the phone as well. The staff of the hotel is incredibly accommodating and was open to any ideas, thoughts or questions that I had. Super easy to mix and match things for the tasting and try a wide variety of options even if it wasn't specifically on the menu. The wedding weekend itself was amazing. We virtually had the hotel to ourselves and the all around experience was perfect. My guests were treated like royalty from start to finish beginning with being picked up at all hours from the various ferries courtesy of the hotel. One of my guests had a medical emergency right before the wedding and couldn't attend and the hotel honored her reservation several months later. You just don't get that anywhere else. One of the staff even steamed my dress for two hours out of the goodness of her heart. I never asked and it wasn't even planned and yet it wasn't a problem. We had our ceremony in the main ball room and an incredible and festive cocktail hour in the Breeze while the ballroom was converted for the reception. I worried about nothing and didn't get involved in the least! The decor was exactly as I wanted it to be from top to bottom and my vision executed perfectly. As for the meal and the service through out the evening was exceptional. I didn't so much as a move a muscle in my chair when the staff was picking up my napkin, helping me fix my very big dress and refilling my water and champagne. If you want a perfect, seamless, five star experience then look no further. If you are a bridezilla then check it at the door because there is no need when dealing with such an amazing event staff!

  From the start, a year before my daughter's wedding, to the very end, The Nantucket Hotel was a pleasure to work with. The staff was friendly, warm and very helpful. Many of our guests chose to stay at the hotel and commented on what a nice facility it was and what it had to offer. The bar/outdoor area has been recently glassed in for more versatile utilization. It was perfect for the cocktail hour with comfortable seating and even a fire pit working. The reception was held in their beautiful ballroom. The food was excellent and the service was terrific. No one was left waiting. It is a great space for a larger party and was perfect for my daughter's December wedding.

  I couldn't have dreamt of a better place to host our 120 guest wedding than the Nantucket Hotel. It was the perfect in town location where the party could go all night. The planning was so easy and we completely felt like royalty the way the entire staff treated us. The ballroom was beautiful and the food amazing. The staff still remembers us several years later...such a nice personal touch. To this day our guests comment about how beautiful the venue was.

  I could not have dreamed of a more perfect wedding day! The staff at The Nantucket Hotel went above and beyond to make sure our experience was top notch…and it was! Everyone was willing to lend a helping hand, and they did so with a smile on their face. We have received so many compliments on the food, the drinks, and the atmosphere…All made possible by The Nantucket Hotel. I could not have imagined having our wedding anywhere else. John and I did not want to leave The Point, the Hotel, and the experience behind, but I know we will be back to relive the moment and make more memories.
