Admiralty Inn and Suites

About The Hotel

The Admiralty Inn & Suites sits on Route 28 near Waquoit Bay and the Falmouth beaches, offering an honest budget option for Upper Cape travelers. It holds a 3.3 across 436 reviews, reflecting an older property with quirky layouts and variable room quality, balanced against friendly staff, clean rooms, and a heated indoor pool that guests appreciate. The location near the Shining Sea Bikeway and the Martha’s Vineyard ferry is excellent for active travelers. Set expectations to practical and no-frills, confirm room details before booking, and you will find an affordable base for a budget Cape trip focused on cycling, kayaking, and island hopping rather than luxury amenities.

What Guests Are Saying

“I was very pleased with my week-long stay at the Admiralty. I was there for Thanksgiving but a family emergency meant I had to adapt my plans more than once and they were very accommodating. You can tell the property is a bit old, but everything was clean and well cared for. The staff were friendly and professional, though property info in the room was a bit off. “Daily breakfast at 7” actually starts at 8 on Sundays, for example. The front desk guy also teased me for not knowing the code to get into the fitness center but I couldn’t find that communicated anywhere, either. Finally, I loved that there was a heated indoor pool because I’m doing some physical therapy and that helped a lot. However, the odd layout of the hotel meant that people had to cut through the indoor pool area to go to the breakfast room and that was pretty awkward.” — Nancy L., 5 stars
