I was very impressed with the staff - everyone was really nice. We were just in and out for a fishing trip and the hotel is a short drive from Oregon Inlet (important when you have to leave at 4:30am). The front desk person made sure we had coffee and a pastry for our early departure and the rooms were... More

We loved the hotel, it is right on the ocean front! All the staff were very nice, pleasant, always spoke andxwerechrlpful with all of our questions! I can say I tried the sweet potato biscuit and for me it's a pass, but the coffee was great! Just a regular plain biscuit will do for me! Will be back again, thanks... More

Great place. We stayed here for one night. This hotel is conveniently located near Jenette's Pier and the Bodie Island lighthouse. It's also right near the Manteo/Nags Head causeway so you aren't far from The Elizabethan Gardens or the Lost Colony. Restaurants/shops aren't far either as this hotel is located maybe one street over from the main drag. Front desk... More

We just completed renovations to all of our guest bathrooms plus all of the glass was replaced in the oceanfront rooms for an even better view of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean.

We went for a wedding, and we had a blast. You can find a more reasonable place price wise, but will they be as friendly? It was clean! Which I love, I do wish they had a seating area in lobby maybe with a bar, but you can't have everything. They recommended a great spa for me, directed to the... More

Stayed four nights in early May. The staff was very friendly, the room was spacious and comfortable, and the location was good. Stayed on the fifth floor and the view of the ocean was awesome. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed here for 4 nights in May and had a great time! This hotel is located right on the ocean, but also right across the highway from restaurants and a grocery store. The staff was very friendly and the hotel very clean! We would 100% return!

The Nags Head in is really a wonderful place to get away from it all. It seems to have a marvelous calming effect on us. Maybe it was because it was so close to the ocean. It is family owned and has been refurbished to a high standard. The oceanfront rooms are great, as you can watch the sunrise and... More

We chose the Nags Head Inn based on other Trip Advisor reviews, and were not disappointed. We arrived early, and they took our number and said they would let us know when the room was ready - and called us about 30 minutes later to say it was all set. We were given a top floor room, and as we... More

While many would prefer more posh surroundings, the rooms at Nags Head Inn are clean, comfortable and spacious. The real plus of this location is that it is on the beach, so you can fall asleep at night, listening to the sound of the waves. There is a small indoor pool and whirlpool, in case the weather outside isn't cooperating.... More
