This is a beautiful property and would definitely stay here again as well as recommend.
Pros:

The location was perfect! We brought our car so it was great having a dedicated parking spot with name on it. The grounds were beautiful; enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor seating area. The hotel decor was bright and modern. Everything was well maintained and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast options were very good and convenient. Coffee and filtered water were available 24/7 and loved that they had ice coffee available too. The afternoon freshly baked chocolate chip cookies were so yummy. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay!

Cons:

The room although beautiful was on the small side. The bureau took up a lot space so the clearance between the bed and bureau was narrow. A slimmer bureau would fit better or options for storage that better accommodate the room design should be considered.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Richard and would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Very friendly staff at The Richard. We loved our room which was very spacious and had access to a lovely outdoor area including a fire pit which was great in the evening. Very impressed with breakfast which fully catered for one of our party with a dairy allergy - lots of choice which isn't always the case in our experience of hotels.

The staff and breakfast were absolutely fantastic and delightful!
Pros:

The property was very quaint, well maintained and centrally located.

Cons:

The stairs were steep to go up to the second floor. My elderly mother would not have been able to climb the stairs if she were with me. There was not an elevator.

Pros:

Everything about The Richard was great. We really enjoyed our stay there. The location is perfect just on the edge of the center of town. Walking distance to everything, the bus stop right around the corner but the hotel was peaceful and quiet. Breakfast was excellent every morning, healthy and plenty to choose from. The best part was Sofia, she greeted us upon checking in and brought us to our room and was helpful with everything we need. She was just a perfect representative of the hotel and set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Pros:

This is a beautiful property in an old whaling captains mansion. The room, the products, the linens, towels, pillows etc were all excellent quality. The morning coffe and breakfast service was exceptional with fresh, quality options and presentation. Obviously there are alwatys some challenges when staying at such on old/historic property (steep, narrow stairways, fewer electrical outlets, etc.) but those minor inconveniences were really no bother in context of the quality of the hotel and its service.

Pros:

We loved waking up, having a nice healthy breakfast and walking down to waterfront in a few minutes. The staff were so nice, very attentive. Loved spending our mornings in courtyard and coming back in evening to a nice fire outside. We'll be back for sure.

Pros:

This property is awesome. Kate, Brook, Sophia and Angela were very helpful from the minute we checked in through our checkout date. Housekeeping was excellent too. The grounds are kept in immaculate shape and the property is all kept in meticulous condition. The breakfasts are perfect and many of the offerings are baked on the premises. I would highly recommend this property for any stay in Edgartown.

Very nice stay with a wonderful staff but limited amenities
Pros:

The location was good... a nice little walk to the center to Edgartown and it's gorgeous harbor. The decor was lovely... the structure was typically New England in the best way possible.
,...contemporary and clean. The staff was terrific...super friendly, helpful, and endearing. The Continental breakfast was fine!

Cons:

The rooms were noisy being that it's an old building with thin walls and doors. My room was small, the bed was soft with mushy pillows ...outstanding bedding and linens! Also, this room was overlooking a gorgeous garden with a fire pit and stunning seating, However, there were three streets that merged outside the windows.... it got noisy... lots of traffic sounds. ...
We ended up being FINe with parking but be aware that it costs $50 a night for reserved spaces.
