Guest Reviews

A quick but wonderful stay. The beds were VERY comfortable, we showed up around 11pm after a wedding & the front desk person was so accommodating. The room was clean and was nicely put together.

As far as I am concerned, there is no other place to stay in Mystic! Upon arrival, the beauty and the history of the Whaler’s Inn truly left us in awe!

From the check in to the check out, the process was fantastic. The staff was always attentive, greeting us with a smile and a 'yes I can do that' attitude. The hotel was very clean, well appointed, close to everything in town, easy on site parking. The rooms were big, clean, bed comfortable, bathroom had plenty of space to lay our toiletries on. Cant wait to come back
