3 Best Hotels in Yarmouth, Cape Cod

A short hop off congested Route 28 sits this imposing 1845 Greek Revival home where thoughtful amenities abound, from the soft bathrobes, beach supplies, and fresh flowers in each room to a selection of complimentary cordials. The large rooms and suites have either antique or canopied beds, plush comforters, fancy drapes, and deep tile baths. Some have fireplaces and sundecks. Breakfast is served in the formal dining room or in the greenhouse-style interior courtyard; baked goods and coffee are available for afternoon tea and after-hours. Check the website for periodic special rates.

A stately 19th-century Greek Revival building with imposing columns, the inn has one of the most dramatic facades of any house on the Cape; it sits near nature trails and has its own fine gardens, patios, and tree-shaded lawns. Mahogany queen- or king-size four-poster beds and antique furnishings provide comfortable respite in a classic setting. A bountiful four-course breakfast starts the day off right.

Smartly and traditionally furnished common areas—including the high-ceiling parlor, the formal dining room, and the wraparound porch—are a major draw to this dignified 1825 Greek Revival house. Guest rooms in both the main building and the carriage house are filled with a mix of old-world romantic charm and modern amenities; each is uniquely decorated, and some have fireplaces for those chilly evenings. A sweet touch: Cookies delivered to guest rooms every afternoon.
