Hob Knob Review

Owner Maggie White has reinvented this 19th-century building as an exquisite destination now vying for top honors as one of the Vineyard's premier luxury boutique hotels. She also wants to stay eco-friendly and that ideal extends to all aspects of the inn, from recycling and composting to an organic menu. All rooms are equipped with plush bathrobes and fine Aveda toiletries, as well as flatscreen TVs. Maggie and her attentive staff will pack a splendid picnic basket ($20/person), or plan a charter fishing trip on Maggie's 27-foot Boston Whaler or organize windsurfing lessons. The full farm breakfast is a delight and is served at beautifully appointed individual tables in the sunny, brightly painted dining rooms or outside on the terrace.

Facilities:
Exercise room; spa; rental bikes ($20 per day); room service; business center

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
