Top Essex Shipbuilding Museum Hotel Reviews

Castle Manor Inn

8/10 Good

"The main house is lovely and the view of the wetlands is pretty. It was well-maintained and our bathroom was modern and clean. I wish the mattresses were more comfortable but the bedrooms were nicely furnished with antiques. The window air conditioners were loud and a bit musty. We were mentally prepared to climb the stairs to our room but found the lack of handicap parking frustrating. A car was parked in the sole handicap spot for the duration of our stay and did not have either a handicap plate or placard. I understand it’s hard to enforce but the front desk staff was a bit dismissive when I asked. That said, our stay was pleasant overall."

Modern 2BR Near Downtown Ipswich

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very nice stay in a nice walkable little neighborhood."

PREMIUM Modern Home on 2 Acres - Panoramic Marsh Views - NEW Video Tour

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the property! Gorgeous view. Perfect location. It was hot upstairs. There are no ceiling fans."

The Ipswich Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We miss the microwave the Inn used to have in the rooms. ‘Great having the cafe in the facility ~ wonderful breakfast! ~ but it used to be included in the room fee. :( Wonderful shower!! :) Bathroom could use a small shelf for guests’ toiletries. Always look forward to staying here but wish the rates hadn’t gone up so severely from one owner to the next. Inn is nice and close to great dinner restaurant (Choate Bridge) - very convenient!!"

Spacious Lakefront Escape w/ 3 Baths + Bonus Bed

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely lake house! We really enjoyed the house and setting. Everything was perfect and Anna was a great host. We will definitely return!"

The Essex of Gloucester

8/10 Good

"The house was very clean and comfortable. They could use a bench or chair in one of the guest rooms to put your suitcase on and also some table reading lamps next to the bed. Also sone ice cube trays for the freezer. Great location. Very easy to get to and check in was perfect."

Great Space to be Together and Spread out

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place for my family and I to stay as we explored the area. The host was great answering any questions we had promptly. They had anything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. We loved that they had everything we needed for the beach, allowing us to pack light. A great place to stay that we will definitely book again!"

Riverview charming apt near beach

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The unit itself is great—very spacious with plenty of room for our family of five. The large eat-in kitchen was a big plus, and having two large bedrooms gave everyone plenty of space. The location is also excellent: tucked away just enough to feel off the beaten path, while still being only about two minutes from Main Street.When we arrived, it was clear the unit had not been cleaned after the previous guests. I messaged the host, and to his credit, he responded immediately and was there within minutes to take care of it. We really appreciated how quickly he addressed the issue.One thing future guests should know: be prepared for quite a few stairs! Aside from that, the space, location, and responsiveness of the host made for a good stay overall."

Winter deal! Delightful 3-4 bed one floor, 3 baths, fireplace

10/10 Excellent

"We get together with family friends annually and this place was a great setting all around. We made great use of the screened in porch, the outdoor spaces (kids loved playing baseball out back) and the large kitchen. The final bedrooms are through an unfinished basement then through a door and down some stairs - so fairly far away.. This downstairs area was good for some of the older kids. We also LOVED the piano and had some wonderful sing along memories made! We did miss a few amenities we usually associate with VRBOs - dish soap; some hand soap in several bathrooms; sufficient toilet paper for our stay (several bathrooms only had a half roll and there were no extras in the home); paper towels; cooking oil...with that said we brought a few of these to the host's attention and he was quickly responsive and willing to buy them and bring them out. We just opted to purchase our own but might be worth bringing these or clarifying before you show up if these are things you don't usually bring like us. Also - a location note - we'd hoped to put in kayaks and SUPs in the nearby marina or behind the house. There is definitely no access behind the house and the marina staff were not friendly to us when trying to launch our kayaks. Overall small things in the scheme of things though and we had such a wonderful time! Would return - great value & location!"
