On a scale of 1 - 10.....I rate it a 20. It was such a beautiful place and in the perfect area. We walked to dinner, came back and relaxed on the porch. We were enjoying the peace and quiet and then we heard the church bells ring 8 times and then a little song played ever so softly. The Inn had beautiful antique furniture. Always had some, water, coffee and snacks out. The sweetest woman checked us in and then showed us around. We definitely want to come back and stay for 3 or 4 nights.

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.

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.

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

It combined every thing I would want in a good hotel and a quaint homey inn. The staff were very responsive and helpful and a good sense of humor goes along way also. The breakfasts were way beyond any inn I have stayed in. I thought I would have to go out to get a hearty breakfast but that wasn’t necessary. Some of the staff could have been hired as your tour guides

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!

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. 😊❤️

Breakfast is a standout, with cooked-to-order dishes, generous portions, and items like omelets and almond pancakes; many call it delicious or excellent. Fresh baked cookies are a popular treat.

It combined every thing I would want in a good hotel and a quaint homey inn. The staff were very responsive and helpful and a good sense of humor goes along way also. The breakfasts were way beyond any inn I have stayed in. I thought I would have to go out to get a hearty breakfast but that wasn’t necessary. Some of the staff could have been hired as your tour guides

Enjoy a flashback to one of many old Victorian houses I used to live in. Love the books by authors the rooms are named after. Nice twist. I loved that the family works there.
