Classic and beautiful. I lived for the complementary afternoon hot cider they put out for guests. Perfect location right in the hotspot of Salem, with it being a hotspot itself. 15min or less walk from anything tourist wise. I would happily book here again :)

Fabulous & helpful staff. Very friendly. Room was immaculate & beautiful. The hotel was really lovely. Was on an impromptu trip with my young daughters, so didn’t get to visit the on site bar for an afternoon cocktail, we did enjoy a lovely breakfast in the Hotel’s restaurant the next morning. Perfect location, steps to all of the sites. Cannot wait to go back! Really fantastic.

The staff were friendly and exceptionally helpful. We were able to get our parking pass before checking in and were even granted permission to remain parked there after checking out (until 4PM) so that we could explore the area. The room was clean, cozy and quiet. No spooky revelations were made. Will definitely recommend and stay again.
