At Anchor Inn Beach House, reviewers highlight the central, walkable setting and a generally comfortable stay, while noting tradeoffs like a basic continental breakfast and occasional maintenance issues or small rooms that temper otherwise positive impressions.
Many guests love the harbor views, balconies, and the front porch for people-watching right on Commercial Street. Room experiences range from spacious with comfortable beds to dated or noisy, with reports of balky doors, screen and faucet problems, or fireplaces not working. Cleanliness and housekeeping earn frequent praise, and staff are largely described as friendly and accommodating, though a few cited an unattended desk or limited responsiveness. Best for travelers who prioritize character and convenience over extensive amenities.

I was a first time visitor to Provincetown and had the good fortune of staying at The Anchor Inn. The owner Chris was extremely helpful in all aspects of the reservation process. The property is perfectly located and walkable convenient to all shops and restaurants. The rooms are meticulously clean and the fireplace was awesome on a cold rainy day. This property is located on the water so the views are spectacular. Every room has its own outdoor private space. Highly recommend this property and I have been told that I am not always o easy to please. I was beyond pleased.

Anchor Inn is one of, if not THE best stays directly on Commercial St (the heart of P-Town). Owners Michael and Chris were so friendly and so good to us! You can't beat the views both from the front and the rear of the Inn! Direct ocean view out back, direct Commercial St access out front. Spending time sitting out on the expansive front porch was heaven! Plenty of easy parking for registered guests. I will always look to the Anchor Inn first when planning a trip to Provincetown!

The fireplace was inoperative and the innkeeper could have cared less so be aware no fireplace. Gave some excuse that didn’t make a lot of sense. The breakfast was sparse even for a continental breakfast.

I couldn't recommend this property more highly - the location is extremely convenient and fairly central, but somehow (at least with a room facing the harbor), I never heard ANY noise from the outside! The owner is friendly, helpful, and down-to-earth (and don't get me started on his adorable dog), and the cleaning staff are friendly and thorough. Breakfast choices were basic but 100% satisfied my breakfast needs and the coffee was great. It was also so pleasant to relax over breakfast on the porch watching the world go by. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of storage space for clothes, etc. Having a tiny balcony over looking the water was a special touch. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The one downside I would note was the very strong mildew smell in the room - but honestly I think this is something that you almost can't avoid in a B&B that's in a classic older building and right on the water, and it didn't bother me too much. I would stay here again in a heartbeat - and in fact, I plan to!

The location is excellent! However, the room is very tiny, and at some point there was no hot water. The view of the sea from the balcony is beautiful, though. It’s nice to have continental breakfast, but the coffee mug wasn’t completely clean and there was some dark solid stick to the wall of the mug. Compared to how much we pay, this isn’t perfect stay; however, location wise, it is one of the best, especially if you didn’t drive here. The host is fine, but not super friendly or give you any information about the town

Property was funkier than the price and pictures would indicate, but (king suite) room was very spacious, and balcony overlooking the harbor was great. Basic continental breakfast was okay. People watching from front porch rockers great. Unless you’re looking to party, avoid weekends, very loud.

The view from the deck is breath taking. Unfortunately the room needs major work. The doors to the room and the deck would not close properly without slamming it shut with your body. The deck doors would not lock, and the screen doors would not open properly. The hot water turned cold whenever you filled the tub or took a shower. There was no place to hang your towels when you were in the shower unless you used the toilet paper holder stand. The remote controls needed instructions to use but there were no instructions available. The bed was horrible, the springs were shot and it was like sleeping in a pot hole. I would not recommend the hotel.

We stayed at The Anchor Inn Beach House in Provincetown, and honestly, it felt wildly overpriced for what we got. The room was tiny and outdated, especially the bathroom — damaged tile, stained grout, and a wall-mounted hairdryer that didn’t even work (and no backup). The old-school metal key was quirky until it stopped working reliably, and there’s no one at the desk 24/7 if you have issues - just a phone number. The walls were thin (hello, neighbor’s 7am phone call), and the mattress had clearly lived several lives, though the bedding itself was super clean. The location was great, and the woman who cleaned the rooms was genuinely lovely and helpful. But overall? You’re paying a luxury price for motel-level vibes.

The one thing that bothered me about my stay was the fact that the bed was concave and very uncomfortable. I chose one of the most expensive options available and the bed mattress was completely worn out. I felt the room was a bit misrepresented in photos - Our room was long and narrow - I did not have that impression from the photo. Otherwise, aside from the pallets of smelly, exterior shingles sitting in the driveway (glad to see the owners were repairing this beautiful property), it was a very pleasant experience.

Some cosmetic issues that should be fixed for the room price (bathroom wallboard separating and fireplace cover needed painting), but otherwise very nice. Good balcony chairs to enjoy the view.

I had a reservation that clearly stated 3pm checkin it was 3:11....instead there was a plasticized sheet stating they were closed for the evening, he returns 10 min. Later and says I just stepped out for a coffee. Not bothered a bit!!! They claim a Fireplace in the room....it was there just did not work. I understand it is early and not the busy season yet,but truthfulness would help. It was located as stated and cleanliness was excellent. The room was small.

Property is within walking distance of great restaurants, shopping and activities. There is parking behind the guest house for guests which is great. You never have to move your vehicle after you arrive. A shout out to Joan and Mae who made our stay special!

I couldn't recommend this property more highly - the location is extremely convenient and fairly central, but somehow (at least with a room facing the harbor), I never heard ANY noise from the outside! The owner is friendly, helpful, and down-to-earth (and don't get me started on his adorable dog), and the cleaning staff are friendly and thorough. Breakfast choices were basic but 100% satisfied my breakfast needs and the coffee was great. It was also so pleasant to relax over breakfast on the porch watching the world go by. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of storage space for clothes, etc. Having a tiny balcony over looking the water was a special touch. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The one downside I would note was the very strong mildew smell in the room - but honestly I think this is something that you almost can't avoid in a B&B that's in a classic older building and right on the water, and it didn't bother me too much. I would stay here again in a heartbeat - and in fact, I plan to!

Extremely nice inn keeper(s). Great location on Commercial St. Rooms are nothing special. Waterview balconies overlook parking lot. Unfortunately it was too chilly to enjoy lovely front porch. Breakfast was ok.

Location and view were amazing, especially during sunrise. We were right downtown and had a view of the entire harbor from our room. Breakfast wasn't anything extraordinary. The housekeepers were incredibly nice.

The fireplace was inoperative and the innkeeper could have cared less so be aware no fireplace. Gave some excuse that didn’t make a lot of sense. The breakfast was sparse even for a continental breakfast.

The best location in Ptown. Best front porch for people watching. Our room had wonderful balcony with excellent ocean view. Bathroom could use updating, but in spite of that our favorite place of many B And Bs we've stayed at.

The location is just feet away from the hustle and bustle and the porch is a great place to have morning coffee or a night cap. Great chatting with the owner and other guests.

This hotel is located very conveniently on commercial Street. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The heat was broken in our room so they upgraded us to a beautiful king suite instead! We have stayed here several times and will continue to go back in the future.
