Property in ok shape. Staff not overly helpful. Not appropriate for anyone with mobility issues as there are staircases to most rooms in the main house. My room faced the street and it was rather noisy.

The hotel itself is very nice but beware, if you're on the top floor, no lifts ! Has a restaurant & bar , but like the area itself very expensive ! It is in a great location on the river , and the whole area is lovely. You can find cheaper bars restaurants, like The Friar Tuck, if you have a look around. Only stayed 1 night. Would have liked longer .

The Whaler's Inn is an excellent place to stay, very welcoming and comfortable. Room was beautiful, bed extremely comfortable, and the amenities above and beyond expectations. The daily water boxes were a much appreciated perk, the afternoon cookies delicious and the 24/7 coffee & tea bar was fantastic. We highly recommend staying here, and will definitely return! Talk to Bryan about places to visit and book your excursions at front desk for discounts!

Very nice inn...old building but renovated throughout. Very clean comfortable rooms. We had a very large suite, but lots of room choices at different prices. Very convenient to Mystic area attractions. Walk into town easily. Great restaurant on site. Free parking.

Beautiful Inn with spacious rooms, comfy beds and top notch service. This historic structure has been loving restored down to the last detail. The rooms are very clean and the gentleman at the front desk was not only friendly but helpful. Their center of town location makes visiting Mystic and walking the shops a breeze. I can't say enough good things about this hotel, other than I would not hesitate to return!

I had high hopes for this Inn, because the reviews were favorable and I have fond memories of Mystic. On the plus side, It is centrally located, but that also means it has a lot of road noise. Unfortunately, the Inn fell short on many issues. 1. Coffee was free in the lobby, but water was not. 2. Literature says there are electric vehicle plug-ins, but when we arrived, we were told ONLY for Tesla vehicles (this was unusual in our cross country trip). 3. The carpet in our third floor corner room smelled musty and moldy. It was unpleasant to return to at the end of the day and nothing we did seemed to clear the smell. 4. Although the Inn doesn't provide free breakfast, they give a $15/person/night credit for breakfast at the on-site restaurant. We invited my elderly parents to join us. We discussed with the waitress to put the $60 credit on the room and then left enough money for the difference in the check AND a generous tip (25%). When I went to check out, the manager told me I owed more money for breakfast, and I countered by stating I had already left plenty of money for the balance and a very generous tip. He charged me anyway, made no effort to make it right, and when I replied that this would have amounted to 60% tip, his response was that some people are very generous 'tippers'. It was frustrating and not very gracious. Would choose another place to stay next time.

Excellent location, great service and a high quality restaurant on site. Coffee and fresh baked cookies available throughout the day. Comfortable bed - a small bathroom with a single shower (no tub). Rooms equipped with a Keurig, bottled water and a mini fridge. They are right in the middle of the shops and restaurants of Mystic, a 10 min walk to seaport, 10 min to Amtrak and a 5 min drive to Aquarium. There is a sweet playground a block behind the hotel. Lots of rocking chairs and Adirondack chairs to watch the world go by. They provided us with discount tickets to both the Aquarium and Seaport.
