Convenient and quiet in town
Pros:

Anchor Inn boutique hotel was a tremendous place to stay. Check in was simple and only took a couple of minutes. We were walking distance to almost everything, yet very quiet. The bed was comfortable, combined with the quiet atmosphere, allowed for a good nights sleep.
The breakfast was so good every morning. My wife and I had a couple of late nights out on the town, the breakfast was a convenient and perfect way to get us going the next morning.
We stayed for 4 nights in August and wished we had stayed longer. One of the best boutique hotel experiences we have ever had. Thank you Paul!

THE Place to Stay in Put-in-Bay
Pros:

We stayed at the Anchor Inn last week. Our first visit to Put-in-Bay. Hotel was fantastic. Adults only and very quiet at night. The chef prepared a really tasty breakfast. Each morning there was a continental breakfast along with standard fare - eggs any way, waffles, etc. In addition the chef offered 2 or 3 special breakfast options. Location perfect. 5 minute walk from downtown. This will be our go to Inn for future visits to Put-in-Bay.

Pros:

Perfect location, best omelette I ever had! Best coffee ever! Downstairs and also in our room! Loved the free use of the bicycles! Super comfortable bed!

Cons:

It was a little more than what I like to pay, but one of the few places with the king size bed, which is always a requirement!

Hospitality at its finest
Pros:

If you're looking for the perfect place to stay in Put-in-Bay, look no further than the Anchor Inn! This was our second stay, and somehow it was even better than the first.

The rooms are absolutely gorgeous—beautifully decorated, and spotless. The location is perfect, within walking distance of everything, yet peaceful and relaxing.

The breakfast alone is worth the stay! Every morning features an incredible made-to-order breakfast with delicious daily specials, along with an assortment of fresh meats, cheeses, fruit, and other options. It's far beyond the typical hotel breakfast and truly starts your day off right.

What makes the Anchor Inn truly exceptional, however, is the hospitality. Paul, the curator and chef, is one of the kindest and most genuine people you'll ever meet. During our stay, we experienced a personal emergency and had to leave unexpectedly. Even after hours, Paul came back to the inn to help facilitate the return of our golf cart, arrange taxis, and assist us with our luggage. His compassion, professionalism, and willingness to go above and beyond turned a stressful situation into one that was completely manageable.

Service like that is rare, and it's the reason we will continue coming back. The Anchor Inn isn't just a place to stay—it's a place where you're treated like family. We absolutely love Paul and cannot recommend this beautiful boutique hotel highly enough. Five stars all the way!

Would absolutely stay here again!
Pros:

Breakfast was the icing on the cake. My husband ate his fair share! Thank you, Paul. I very much liked the king-sized beds and the attention to detail - turning on the lights and closing the blinds for us every night, was well received.
