Wonderful BI getaway
Lovely relaxing stay at a classic BI hotel. Really enjoyed the on-site dining for dinner, sunset views, and the ability to walk into town or the beach. Would stay again.

The restaurant and bar were very enjoyable as were the staff.
My only comment would be I would like to see a bigger breakfast menu.
A minor point compared to all the positive aspects of your hotel.

The Atlantic is an old historic inn that was completely updated two years ago. The whole facility is immaculate. The staff was extremely attentive even though we were there pre-season.
We will definitely stay at The Sylsntic if we ever return to Block Island!

It was very nice and the service was excellent.
Food portions could have been a bit more reasonable. My fois gras was the size of a quarter. Otherwise my wife and I were very pleased.
