Great location and accommodations

The Salem Inn was in an excellent location to the Witch House and Essex Street where all the shops are. We looked forward to the free happy hour everyday at 4:30. The room was clean and very big. Will stay again if I go back to visit Salem.

Outdated & Uncomfortable Stay

Communication from this property just before check-in was over bearing. Breakfast selections had to made the day before in addition to the time we planned to eat. We had to text the front desk each morning we left in order to get maid service. During our 3 day stay not one manager/supervisor bothered to introduce themselves. Only staff we met were the waiters at breakfast. The room was clean but very outdated. The mattress was old, very lumpy and in need of replacement. The decor was stark. One small picture hung on the bedroom walls. There were no shades to block the morning Sun behind very simple, old pocket rod curtains. The doors between the bathroom and BR squeaked so loudly they would wake a person in the night if moved. This is an easy fix with WD40…sloppy maintenance! Sadly, this was not worth $300+ per night.

We had an amazing experience at The Salem Inn! We stayed here while filming a ghost hunt for my YouTube channel ThisGhostStory, and the location did not disappoint. The atmosphere was perfect—historic, cozy, and just the right amount of spooky. We experienced a lot of paranormal activity during our stay and can’t wait to dive into the footage and start editing the video! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the inn itself is full of charm and character. If you're into history or the paranormal, this is the place to be in Salem. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique and memorable stay! @thisghoststory

Our stay at the Salem Inn was charming and memorable. The property itself is full of character, clean, and perfectly located for exploring Salem. What truly made our experience exceptional was Suzanne, the innkeeper, and the other staff members. They are all absolutely amazing…welcoming, attentive, and full of fantastic ideas for dining and must-see spots around town. Their passion for Salem and their guests shines through in every detail. We’re so grateful for their hospitality and hope to return soon!

Great central location. Quiet. clean room, comfortable bed and pillows. Car park was bonus. Breakfast basic and good. Only suggestion I would suggest is if self check in details were sent early morning as opposed to 3pm. If you are on international flight and end upbeen delayed things can become stressful. I appreciate not everyone would be arriving after hours but when events go amiss its good to know you have all info well in advance.

The Salem Inn is a fun place for families. The rooms are large, clean, and comfortable. The Inn is very conveniently located in downtown. It is walking distance to everything. There is limited parking available, but we had no problem finding a space. Breakfast was fairly basic and a little lackluster, but the service was very good.
