Hyannis Travel Inn

Friendly greeting at check in. We asked at desk for an upgrade from the
booking, expecting to pay a little extra for a king bed. However, we were given a FREE upgrade! This was just before the big, Memorial Day weekend onslaught on the Cape. Most businesses still fairly quiet. Room was very clean, bed was very comfortable with 5 pillows and an extra one in the closet. Microwave/​fridge/​hair dryer in one section with overhead light. Bathroom was mostly new and updated except for shower head. Although there was plenty of hot water, pressure could have been just a *little better. Two chairs on outside balcony facing North St. which is one block from Main St. Hyannis. You’re looking at parking lots, but you can walk any where from this location priced a lot lower than Main St. hotels. Many restaurants and shops all along Main St. Location not far from Ocean St. docks and island ferries. Also, CC Hospital near by and CC Music Tent. Great location, great price, great service! What more could you ask for? Breakfast of course! Only drawback is that breakfast is poolside, which means humidity and children enjoying the water. Not a big deal unless you’re asthmatic. Coffee’s, teas, juice, milk, yogurt, cereal, pre-​made waffles, toast, muffins, English muffins, pastries and cold, hard-​boiled eggs available. Well cared for and well stocked stations.
Next time we go for a quick Cape Cod jaunt, we will remember Hyannis Travel Inn fondly!

Not the most up-​to-​date rooms but very nice and clean. Comfy beds, very good water pressure, good side fridge, iron, full size ironing board and a Keurig in the room. The pool area is great, large hot tub and the pool temperature was awesome at 86 degrees. I can’t stand when u get to a hotel and the indoor pool is freezing, perfect at this place. The service here is impeccable! They are beyond nice and accommodating and get you anything you ask for in seconds. Can’t say enough about the staff. Awesome place for the price. Would come back again in a second!!!

Such a nice group of people — what customer service is all about!
I stayed here for one night this past weekend (way, way, off-​season!) for the Hyannis marathon. When I arrived, Cliff, the nice gentleman at the front desk welcomed me with a handshake (!), offered to get someone to take my bags up to my room, gave me a run-​down of the hotel’s amenities (continental breakfast, indoor pool, etc), and VOLUNTEERED to let me stay an extra night for free because I was running the marathon and because it was the off-​season. Amazing.
The facility itself is very well-​kept — obviously no frills and a bit dated but immaculately clean. The location is also fabulous — I’m not a frequent Cape visitor but it seemed to be right in the thick of all the important places in Hyannis — the beaches, the JFK Memorial, the ferry to the Vineyard/​Nantucket, etc (I know because I ran by all of these places during the marathon, which was awesome by the way)!
But again — this place’s biggest selling point is the staff. Such nice, considerate, polite people — unfortunately a rarity these days. Cliff even shook my hand again as I checked out!
I will definitely be back!!! For the marathon and hopefully for other visits.

What a nice hotel. Rooms are very clean. The pool area is kept so nice. Most of all is the wonderful staff. Shout out to Patrick, Jeff, and Jessica! Thank you for such for a nice visit. We will definately be back.

This place is awesome. The staff is so friendly and helpful, the pool and breakfast area are really cool and clean, the rooms are wicked clean, the breakfast is delicious, and it’s so close to main street. My mother and I are going to use Hyannis Travel Inn every time she visits me on the cape. I have never met a friendlier hotel staff. They remember you and ask about things that you told them you were going to do and they make recommendations for restaurants that are actually good. The housekeeping lady is wicked sweet and she does an awesome job. I have nothing bad to say about this place.

Rooms: got the 2 queen room, which had a decent amount of space. AC worked great. Updates were eveident, but could use a few more. Microwave and fridge were old, but working. Had a small balcony, with a couple of chairs. Was nice to be able to open the slider and get fresh air.
Cons: the floors/​ceilings are thin. You hear people walking around upstairs, so I recommend you ask for an upper floor room. The mattresses are also a bit uncomfortable, but not terrible.
Staff: this is where they shine. Friendly, accommodating. Will bend over backwards to please their guests.
Pool/​Amenities: indoor pool is perfect temp. Hot tub is a nice plus. Outdoor pool was nice, but a bit chilly. Breakfast options are pretty decent and free. Indoor pool area is always staffed.
Cons: coffee is really weak, but there’s a Dunkin Donuts right down the street. The soda machine is not restocked often enough. If your children are under 13, they are not allowed to use the hot tub.
Location: it’s awesome that you can walk to the marina and main street. Lots of restaurants and shops a short walk away. Kalmus beach is also nice and within a 5 minute drive.
Would I return? Yes.

Close to everything

Fantastic place to stay. The staff was REALLY nice. I mean, went out of their way to be nice! Everything was clean and the pool is open later on the weekends. Quite a spread for a continental breakfast too! A 2 min walk away from the main drag in Hyannis. I really recommend it.

Definitely a great value. The staff was all super duper nice. The older gentleman at the front desk is so friendly. A great way to start our stay. The rooms are nice enough and It’s a great place to stay if you’re not a «stay in you hotel room» type of traveler. Walking distance to the main street for shopping and restaurants and a short 10 min walk to catch the ferry for Martha’s Vineyard.
Couple down sides: No elevator, which is fine for me but I’m thinking for older travelers it would be tough. Another downer is the comforter didn’t seem clean to me. I don’t know, I could be wrong but it didn’t smell like it had just been washed. Our solution was we just didn’t use it. The room was warm enough. All in all, a great place to stay for our two days in Cape Cod.

Hyannis Travel Inn isn’t fancy but it is very clean,. friendly and convenient. Only a few minutes to the center of Hyannis and a bit longer to the beaches, it’s location is about perfect.
The inn has a very helpful and friendly staff and exceptional clean rooms and hallways. Our room had a TV, fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Everything we needed.
The inn also has a nice indoor pool, hot tub and a complimentary continental breakfast. A wonderful, comfy, inexpensive and convenient place to stay when in Hyannis.

Hyannis Travel Inn was a very pleasant surprise! Very close to downtown walking or about a $ 4 cab ride. My mother and I stayed there last weekend, as it was nearby to an Irish festival we were attending. We weren’t expecting anything too fancy considering we were only going to be using the hotel to sleep for one night, and it was very reasonably priced. The rooms were nice and clean, Our 2 double bed room had a large flat screen and a fridge in it which one much more expensive hotel I frequent on the Cape does not offer, the general appearance was nice and clean. Each room has a private balcony which was great. The indoor and outdoor pools looked very nice, unfortunately we did not have time to enjoy the amenities. The staff were wonderful, especially Cliff who we checked in and out with. He was so friendly, and insistent on helping with the luggage. He made sure we knew to help ourselves to the coffee, tea and hot chocolate. I can not wait to stay here again during the summer months and enjoy the outdoor pool. This is my first Unilocal review, I could not let Cliff’s excellent customer service go unnoticed!

This is a clean, comfortable hotel with an AMAZING staff! We come down for the indoor pool with the kids every winter and each time we are treated to a wonderful time by very nice people. A really nice vibe here! (and reasonable price and basically right downtown as well).

I recently stayed at Hyannis Travel Inn with a rather large bachelorette party. We had originally chosen the hotel because of it’s proximity to town and it’s reasonable price. Let me just say, we weren’t expecting much. The facilities themselves were fine, we got what we paid for but we had expected that. The rooms were basic but clean. However, we weren’t really staying there for the ambiance.
I will however say that the staff was AMAZING! Every staff member that we interacted with (especially Patrick) all weekend was so friendly and so helpful. They could not have been more accommodating. They even allowed us to have our pre-​party (complete with «naughty» party favors and games) in the entire indoor pool area because it was raining.
I can’t say that I’ve never received better service at a hotel. I would definitely recommend it !

The rooms could definitely use an update but the folks that work here made up for it. The sweet young man that greeted us carried our bags to our room and then brought us additional towels completely unsolicited. I borrowed a wine opener from the front desk and was almost chastised for returning it – he wanted me to keep it. My family and I felt very welcome and appreciated here. We will definitely return.

While I’m only giving it 2 stars I have to explain why. It’s certainly not because of the customer service or the location or the cleanliness but primarily because of its age. Not sure how old it is but it has seen better days, from the room perspective. The outside has certainly seen updates and was perfectly located for our ferry over to Nantucket the following day. We arrived after an 7 hour drive from NJ about 9pm. Most restaurants were closed but we were able to order the infamous clam strips that we always look forward to while on the Cape. The front desk clerk was very helpful and attentive.
The room itself was indeed spotless and perfect for what we needed. Close proximity to the ferry and a reasonable price. It fit the bill for both. Throw in breakfast and coffee around the pool in the am and we were thrilled. As stated before, our second story room was just a teensy bit outdated but very comfortable. It’s plain to see its a constant work in progress though. There were signs of work being done all around.
The best part though was meeting the gentleman at the front desk in the am. As I scurried through with coffee in hand I was greeted very happily by a young man who could not have been sweeter. As we conversed I found out he was the owner and Liam, you have found your calling. Customer service is certainly your forte and while I can’t divulge all his trade secrets, suffice it to say, we now will stay each and every year, going forward, (as this is an annual sister reunion in Nantucket) at the Hyannis Travel Inn.
Thank you Liam again for your fine hospitality.
Look forward to seeing you next June. I just hope that this review doesn’t find no vacancy sign when I try to book my room…

My family of five stayed here for 2 nights in June 2014.
Check-​in was smooth and the front desk clerk, Patrick, was very friendly and helpful.
Our room was clean and included two queen beds with a twin size sofa pull out. The main complaints we had was that the beds were not comfortable and we woke up with sore backs. The pillows were scratchy and felt like things were poking out.
The free breakfast was nice. You had the usual assortment of cereal, yogurt, muffins and toast. The one major thing missing was fruit. I don’t think I saw a single fruit available. My children were especially happy with the hot chocolate.
The pool area is also nice. However, you have to go to the front desk and let them know that you want to go swimming so they can unlock the door for you and have an employee present while you swim. My kids were a little disappointed that they weren’t old enough to use the hot tub. I believe you had to be 15 years old to use it. It didn’t really matter though because they still had fun swimming.
The location of this hotel was convenient to restaurants. We were about a 10 minute walk (with children) to the restaurants along the ocean.
If you plan to stay here, I would recommend that you bring your own pillows.

My husband and I were here in June. The hotel looks good from outside, but inside they need renovation and carpet cleaning. Beds were uncomfortable, was little noisy. Wi-​Fi connection was terrible. Excellent location close to Main St. and five min. to Hyannis Harbour.

We enjoyed the location and staff. Everyone was pleasant. We were close to everything. Reasonable and pleasant. Would stay again if in the area.

In terms of amenities, this is your average hotel. Indoor and outdoor pool, standard uncomfortable beds, balconies (no elevators though). In terms of location, however, this hotel is pretty good. You are walking distance from all the stores on Main street, and all the beaches of Cape Cod are less than 45 minutes away. The largely Russian staff are nice, and there is a pretty good complementary breakfast in the morning. What more could you ask for?

Arrived here at 12 midnight on a Friday… and this was the only place with rooms available. The price is reasonable I guess for a weekend night and last minuet walk-​ins. However there is a really odd, old people apartment smell all around. The first room we were given had its glass door to the balcony broken that it won’t fully close, and the bed sheet also had a yellow spot on it. The friendly staff swapped our room and our night turned somewhat better… at least before when we discovered that the top portion of the shower curtain is about to grow mushrooms.
