Hawthorne Hotel
I loved this hotel, beautiful. The staff were great help when asked questions and very friendly. The location of this hotel is a plus, everything is at a walking distance. The complimentary tea, coffee, etc…was great. Came back home and ordered some of that tea brand. One thing that I didn’t care ...

The Cove At Salem
The room was so creative! We had a wonderful experience staying in the witch cottage! The location is perfect: very close to downtown but still quiet! We will definitely stay there again if we ever find ourselves back in Salem!
