The 1865 House
The 1865 House offers a stay rooted in the maritime history of Mystic, Connecticut. Originally constructed by shipbuilder George W. Mallory, this beautifully preserved Victorian home is filled with timeless character, including tall ceilings, dramatic 12-foot door casements, and intricate hand-carved scrollwork throughout.
Home to seven distinct guestrooms, each with a private bath, The 1865 House blends classic New England charm with newly renovated interiors designed for modern coastal getaways. Select rooms feature intricately carved four-poster beds, adding an extra layer of romance and heritage to the experience.
Like all accommodations at The Whaler’s Inn, staying here places you just steps from Downtown Mystic, the Bascule Bridge, local shops, and waterfront dining, making it easy to experience the best of Mystic while staying somewhere with real history.
The Morgan Suite
The Morgan Suite offers a refined experience designed for couples seeking a more luxurious getaway. Located on the first floor, this spacious two-room suite features original hardwood floors, a double-sided gas fireplace, and views of Main Street through an oversized picture window in the sitting room. The bathroom experience is equally considered, with an air-jet soaking tub, a double vanity, and radiant-heated floors that make mornings and evenings feel indulgent.
With its thoughtful layout and elevated details, the Morgan Suite creates a calm retreat within walking distance of Mystic’s dining, shopping, and waterfront attractions. This suite is suited for adults only.
The Mallory Suite
The Mallory Suite is designed with families in mind, offering space, comfort, and privacy in a single cohesive layout. Located on the first floor, this suite features two bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, allowing for shared time during the day and separation at night.
The children’s room includes a twin-over-full bunk bed with stair access to support safety and ease, while the full bathtub simplifies bedtime routines after days spent exploring Mystic Aquarium, Mystic Seaport, and nearby attractions. It is a practical and welcoming option for family-friendly hotels in Mystic.
1865 House Guestrooms
Guestrooms on the second floor of the 1865 House offer a classic New England feel, complete with modern amenities. Each Queen Guestroom includes a private bath with a subway-tiled walk-in shower, a writing desk, and plush bedding to encourage rest after full days in Mystic.
Oversized windows bring in natural light and invite moments of pause, whether reading in the upholstered side chair or taking in views of the surrounding streetscape.
