Concierge.com's insider take:
Despite slightly rickety staircases and a bit of peeling paint here and there, the picturesque 300-year-old Huntting Inn, encircled by a picket fence and shaded by a majestic elm, is one of the best hotels in the Hamptons. The look of the interior is French country, with bright quilts and (in some rooms) floral wallpaper, making it the perfect place to take a break from the area's seaside theme. This mansion also houses a tony branch of The Palm steak-house chain, an East End institution since 1979 (631-324-0411; www.thepalm.com). Everyone from beach-house owners to celebs—including Robert De Niro, Billy Joel, and Calvin Klein—to starstruck tourists pack in here, clamoring for seats on the porch and enjoying large portions of dry-aged steaks, jumbo lobsters, and Italian-leaning classics such as linguine with red or white clam sauce.
