What guests think
Frederick William House is a charming bed-and-breakfast noted for its beautifully decorated, comfortable rooms, friendly hands-on host, and convenient location near downtown Falmouth, ferry access, and the Shining Sea Bike Path with complimentary bicycles.
Rooms are generally clean and well maintained, with fireplaces or soaking tubs in some. The continental breakfast is widely praised, with hot dishes available for an extra charge; several guests noted confusion or disappointment about what's included. Some noted small rooms, occasional noise, tricky signage on a busy road, and minor outdoor or bike maintenance needs. Expect a cozy, well-run inn with classic B&B charm.

The inn was fine for our purpose to be close to the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. Room was very nice. Pillows were flat which is a big no no for me. Could hear someone snoring in the house. Situated on a very busy road but the inn has a fabulous bike path right in the back yard.

It was a nice and clean hotel and was designed beautifully. It’s great that they have bikes available there and allow you to go for biking on the Shinning sea trail, and it would be beneficial if they do some maintenance for the bike and make sure that they are in a good shape. Overall I was satisfied staying there.

We enjoyed our stay at Frederick Williiam House. It is in a perfect location. Staff was great. My critique woud be the outdoor seating area could of been cleaned better.. table and chairs were dirty, spider webs and bird poo on all of them. I also do not think it should be advertised as breakfast included as you do have to pay extra for the continental breakfast- and the breakfast that is included is pastries. aside from that we would consider returning here.

The property is lovely and well kept. I had difficulty going up the stairs because of an injury and the owner Jeanette met me outside and graciously carried my luggage to my 2nd floor, bedroom & ran me a bubble bath w/epson salt for my sore muscles. I had access to hot tea On the 2nd fl as well. The bed linen was incredibly comfortable and I didn’t want to take the complimentary soft bathrobe off. Hot breakfast was extra but very much worth the tender care that Jeanette gave it. It was a highlight of my stay in Falmouth.

So many great things to say about this place! The owner is very friendly and accommodating. The property is reasonably priced, clean and well maintained. It’s a quick drive or long walk to many restaurants and shops. Also conveniently located near the parking lot for ferries to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Falmouth is a cute little town that would be great as a base camp for day trips to the neighbouring islands. And the included continental breakfast was top-notch!

Exceptional in every way. Jeanette is so warm and welcoming; we enjoyed our chats with her every morning at breakfast. The inn itself is quaint and peaceful, with beautifully decorated rooms, all of which are meticulously maintained. The location is perfect: only a few miles from lovely restaurants and convenient ferry service to the islands. Our dinners at Glass Onion and Landfall were excellent. Highly recommend the Frederick Williams Inn and Falmouth overall!

Our door to the hallway had a big gap under it. I felt like anyone in the hall could hear us talking. No screen on a window left us sweltering all night. Other window had road noise. Great shower pressure! Mattress horrible. Seaview suite was a room with a bathroom and parking lot/roof view. Great breakfast.

Our bathroom not negative is that it’s hard to find even after being there a few days. The sign and driveway are tucked into foliage and the street traffic is moving along and you must come to a dead stop. Even so I would stay here again. The innkeeper was lovely and very helpful and accommodating!

The property is a beautiful bed and breakfast located less than a mile from the downtown area. Our room was thoughtfully decorated with antique furniture. The bathroom and shower/bathtub were perfect. A nice skylight inside the bathroom as well. The breakfast was continental but you can order off a hot menu made to order as well. Overall it was a gorgeous property in a great location. The property manager Jeannette was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area restaurants and things to do. She was an excellent host and we plan on going back in the future. I highly recommend this property.

Jeanette is a wonderful host. Friendly and welcoming. Delicious continental breakfast. Beautiful rooms. The room had a gas fireplace as well as a skylight in the bathroom. Close to downtown and the ferry. Looking forward to returning there again.

Stayed for 3 nights in this beautiful house that is decorated so well and not too far from the centre of Falmouth. Fab breakfast with plenty of choice and the owner is friendly, helpful and attentive. Would definitely stay here again.

The property is a beautiful bed and breakfast located less than a mile from the downtown area. Our room was thoughtfully decorated with antique furniture. The bathroom and shower/bathtub were perfect. A nice skylight inside the bathroom as well. The breakfast was continental but you can order off a hot menu made to order as well. Overall it was a gorgeous property in a great location. The property manager Jeannette was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area restaurants and things to do. She was an excellent host and we plan on going back in the future. I highly recommend this property.

Our stay at the Frederick William House was outstanding! The room and bathroom were both spacious and comfortable, providing everything we needed for a relaxing visit. Jeanette was a fantastic host - warm, welcoming, and a true pleasure to chat with. The location was convenient, just a short drive to downtown. We especially enjoyed the continental breakfast, which offered a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, we loved our stay and would gladly return.

Our host was gracious and upgraded our room. Wonderful stay. Used the free bikes to get around and loved the area. Breakfast was adequate but felt the up charge for a hot breakfast was excessive so didn’t choose the option.

The place was amazingly beautiful, very clean, they were very organized, we arrived late and they left a note in the front desk with information, that was good. The only thing we would it want to know in anticipation is about the “free breakfast” because it was only “Fruits, some pastry, juice, water and coffee”, it you wanted to have eggs or anything else you had to pay $20 the plate, so technically it wasn’t fully free. Other than that the place is amazing and I highly recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay at Frederick Williiam House. It is in a perfect location. Staff was great. My critique woud be the outdoor seating area could of been cleaned better.. table and chairs were dirty, spider webs and bird poo on all of them. I also do not think it should be advertised as breakfast included as you do have to pay extra for the continental breakfast- and the breakfast that is included is pastries. aside from that we would consider returning here.

This was a nice place to stay. Clean and thoughtful in terms of rooms and ambience. Breakfast was a bit disappointing as compared to other B&Bs we've been at.

A wonderful inn and owner is delightful. Our room was absolutely gorgeous with a stone fireplace and soaking tub. The headboard was a unique piece of art in itself and the bed was beautifully made with luxurious linens. We had an amazing home cooked breakfast of bacon, eggs cooked to order, and custom home baked orange cranberry sourdough toast. We can’t wait to come back!

The home was not ideal for walking into town. The free bikes were not rideable, although a very good bike rental store was not too far away. Check in was impersonal as they just left notes for each guest taped to the front desk . No greeting whatsoever. Our room was ok, nothing great. The bathtub was an odd shape and not the best water pressure.
