Beautiful setting overlooks harbor. Nice grounds and dock for use by guests. Inn had just opened for the season so rooms were very musty but once windows were opened it got better. Nice breakfast was included. Only complaint was the "living room" and shared areas of the Inn reeked of stale cigarette odor (owners must be smokers), though the room... More

Small, quaint, friendly and clean with a delicious home made breakfast included in the price, and a wonderful harbor view to enjoy. What else is there to say? The owners were very very friendly and helpful during our stay. The room, a tad small, fit the bill perfectly though our room had no air conditioning. I do believe other rooms... More

Location is BEAUTIFUL, unfortunately that's the only good thing I can say. Fridge in the room didn't work unless you turn up the heat. Rooms very bare-bone (NO coffee maker for the a.m.) and a lot of mold in the bathroom. The owners are not very pleasant at all. I went to the main house to make a cup of... More

First - there is no cell phone service. They know this, but do not tell you in advance so *I* will tell you. Second – there are no irons. Bring one if you are going to a formal party, like a wedding! Third – toiletries are sparse. There are three little bars of soap in the room but you are... More

A very rustical Hotel in a paradisiac place, good located to travel through the area. Can not recomend it since the owners are not nice people. They are in bad mood , not polite , and do not understand their business of been nice and polite with their guests. The atenton is bad. They can clearly disturb you on your... More

Although the Inn is rustic, one would expect warm service. Not only are the owners not knowledgeable about what to do and see in the area, ownership hinged on just being plain rude. too bad as the setting is great. suggest other alternatives in the area.

In full disclosure, I have a special place in my heart for the Gosnold Arms - I went there throughout my childhood and now frequent it with my husband. The inn is located on a fairly quiet road along a lovely cove (one of the locations that "Message in a Bottle" was filmed). The location is, by far, the inn... More

This was our 2nd time here, and was going to give it a very good, until I read some of the other reviews and it motivated me to up it to "Excellent". Really, I am actually really surprised by the negative reviews. Both times we've been, we've had a really nice visit. The rooms have been very clean and neat,... More

My husband and I stayed here for a friend's wedding. Unfortunately, our flight was cancelled due to summer weather and we were unable to make it on Friday night. The hotel would not give us any break on the $160 we spent on a room that night, which was a bummer, but perhaps understandable. When we arrived, though, I was... More

The Gosnold Arms served the purpose of being near the Hardy Boat to Monhegan Island. The staff was friendly and they allow you to leave your car in their lot during your day trip to the Island. The Inn was built in 1932 and was never intended to be a luxury hotel. The bathrooms were clean and the windows had... More
