Good Location

Check in was great and is in a great location. The hotel is old but I think that’s the look they are going for. My only complaint was the AC didn’t work. We were located on the 4th floor so the heat from below really heated up our room to almost 80 degrees. I turned on the AC to cool down the room but it just blew hot air. After speaking to the front desk they told me that it wasn’t going to work and that they would offer us a plug in fan. The windows only open up about 5” which makes sense for security reasons but it wasn’t enough to cool the room down and to make matters worse our room was above the kitchen vents so our room constantly smelled like a deep fryer. Other than that it was a good stay but I might venture elsewhere for my next stay in Salem.

Lovely inn, charming town

My husband and I loved the inn, and we both thought the staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly. The beds and pillows were really comfortable. Having drinks by the fire in the evening was charming, and breakfast was very pleasant. They went out of their way to accommodate my food allergy, which was much appreciated.

Girls trip with the kids

Rented two rooms with my sister in law and kids. We were checked in by a fashionably dressed young man. Shout out to his shirt from express men! Check in was a breeze and the staff is very friendly. The hotel is lovely and has a great historical feel. Unfortunately, we didn’t receive any hauntings during our stay. Some of the kids might have been happy about that. They offered complimentary water, lemonade, coffee, tea and hot cocoa. The hotel is in perfect walking distance for all the shops and restaurants

It was a great location for anyone who wants to get around Salem quickly. My only real complaint is the lack of AC at this time of year. But that was mitigated by the window and a fan

We loved our quick stay at the Hawthorne Hotel! Though our room wasn't huge, the beds were absolutely dreamy - so comfy we didn't want to get up! The best part? You literally step outside and boom - you're right in front of the Salem Witch Trial Museum!

If you have plans to visit Salem, this hotel should be on your list of options. It is centrally located in the middle of everything which makes it so easy to walk to any place you desire for shopping or dining. It was also affordable. The room we had was compact, but had everything we needed. If you don't want to leave to dine, there is a restaurant on site.
