I had to find a place to stay last minute for one night, and the Hotel Salem was able to accommodate me and check me in early. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The bed was also super comfy! Overall, it was a great experience, and even though I did not anticipate having to stay somewhere overnight, I'm glad I picked the Hotel Salem!

We had a micro king room. This room had plenty of amenities for a small room. The hotel is situated in the heart of Salem. There are great views of the city at the hotels roof bar. Lots of cool places to check out around the Hotel.

Great hotel, great amenties, love the location in the city. Perfect for walking. But the toilet in the double queen room's toilet was difficult for wide-set hips. The only downside to the trip was having to use the bathroom with our knees together, squeezing between the wall and the sink.

We enjoyed our stay at The Hotel Salem! The location was amazing, and we loved the cool, modern vibe of the hotel. The staff was very helpful and enthusiastic and the rooftop bar was a good place to unwind after a long day of touring. If you are sensitive to noise you should ask for a room that is quiet, because there was a good bit of noise from the rooftop and the street, and we were offered a noise machine to help.
