The Salem Inn, Salem

Room was reasonable... They gave us 2 Twin Beds instead of the King we asked for... Fireplace was small... Bathroom and Shower were horrible... Birds in sitting room were heard throughout the night... Parking Area was a few blocks down the street... Staff wasn't helpful... Only upside was the nice breakfast... I suggest trying a different Bed & Breakfast when in Salem...

The only thing I liked was the location. Dislikes: Loud music/orgy in next room until 3 am Old bedding in Peabody House Froze all night cause no wood for fire/heat didn't work Told girl at front desk of trouble, all she said was "Oh." Breakfast was cold and continental Wrote letter explaining trouble...no letter back

We stayed at the Captain house in Room 17. It was so beautiful. The bed was comfortable and the room was perfect. by accident we discover a twisted steel stairway from the bathroom. At the bottom of the stairs it led to the picturesque garden with the quaint statue and table & chairs. The room was pretty and at night we sat on the couch with the wind coming though the open windows. The double jucuzzi was an added benefit after the long days walking on cobblestone roads. Salem is an excellent vaction spot that has great food, many sites, and a beautiful waterfront. Top if off with staying at this great hotel and you will be sure to plan a return visit.

Just returned from a lovely 3night stay and would return in a heartbeat! We could walk through downtown Salem, to the Museum and shops - Even the rain didn't dampen our visit. Halloween must be fabulous! I understand there is a haunted room, if you're brave enough! Very nice breakfast, beautiful courtyard and great Inn Keepers!

This place looks great as do most of the B&B in Salem but I"m a little frustrated with all the restrictions placed on many of these hotels. You must stay two nights on the weekend.....4 nights for Halloween and they charge you over the top hotels costs. I'll be staying in towns close to Salem which are a little more flexible. Hey Salem, you need an economic boost? Try making things easier on visitors!

I forgot to write in the guest book, and so just want to say "thanks" for the wonderful stay at the Salem Inn. In Dec., my husband and I spent a night in the Honeymoon Suite for our fifth anniversary. The Inn is a wonderful bed and breakfast, and our room was amazing: the comfortable queen bed, the fireplace, and the whirlpool bath. We loved the champagne, chocolates, sherry, roses and continental breakfast. The friendly, courteous staff made us feel very much at home, a welcome change of pace from the hustle, bustle of Chicago. Salem, the little city with a big history, feels a bit like Halloweeen every day. We enjoyed every experience at the Salem Inn, and will definitely return again!

Stayed there the weekend of 11/8-11/9, Stayed in the Peabody House, first floor, room was lovely, some nice old furnishings, kitchenette and huge bathroom, very satisfactory. Breakfast was fantastic, Juice, coffee, tea,bagels, pastry, cereal, quiche,yogurt and fresh fruit, lovely little breakfast room. Was not crazy on the parking, had to park on the street, so glad I wasn't there in October as parking could have been a huge issue, found walking distances very reasonable and enjoyed salem and the Salem Inn, would recommend it to anyone, just cautious of the parking.

Our first trip to NE and Salem - marvelous! It's such a fun place to visit. We can't wait to return. Thank you for our soothing and joyful escape. Absolutely what I had expected. Our room was very clean, comfortable, spacious and charming, with king bed, Jacuzzi bath, interesting antiques and art work. The Inn provides complimentary coffee in the rooms, sherry in the guest parlor and a wonderful, expanded breakfast buffet, with assorted pastries, quiche, fruits, cereals, yogurt and juices. The "breakfast room" is really quaint and historic, too. This cozy room with brick and stone walls is on the lower level of the main building, the Catain West House, and opens out to a very private, secluded and tranquil courtyard. The location of the Inn is perfect for touring. Not only are all the sights and attractions of Salem a short stroll away, but there is also a commuter train to Boston. In 30 minues, you can be in the fascinating and very historic capital city of Massichusetts. During our visit, we also took day trips along the coast to the famous fishing town of Gloucester and the well-known towns of Concord and Lexington. We will return again, without hesitation, to enjoy this wonderful town. All in all, our stay in Salem was particularly enjoyable due to the delightful Salem Inn. Thank you so much.

Love the hotel. Stayed in the Captian West house twice. Plan on going there again. Love it! The breakfast was great. You must remember that it is a very old hotel, but the is what is so neat about it. Great time!!!

Wow! Salem is a magical place. I learned a lot of history I can use in my 7th grade history class. Salem Inn is the greatest hotel my dad and I have ever been to. Yes, it is haunted and it is old, but our room was so cool and comfortable! And, it's right downtown near all the history, the witch stuff and the museums. The desk people here are so nice and friendly. Don't be afraid to ask anything of them. This is my first time in Salem and I never want to go back home. This trip was a dream come true. The city, the inn, the history. This is the ideal place to live....
