The Hotel Salem
Great hotel and great location! Would definitely stay there again. Only issues were off site parking (available but at guest’s expense), difficult to use tv (no guide for local channels), and no shelves or hand rails in the shower. Enjoyed the roof top bar and dining - beautiful view! Wish the restaurant near the lobby had been open while we were there, but it is only open certain days of the week.

Overpriced.
Very inconvenient to have to park and carry all of your luggage 5min away (esp in pouring rain) to the hotel. No shower doors-odd.

Awesome!
Hotel Salem was an absolute pleasure to stay at. Located on Essex St which is centrally located within the heart of Salem. We enjoyed the convenience of the close proximity to the attractions, shops and many restaurants abound! The staff is super friendly and the room was impeccably clean! We will definitely be booking another stay in the near future!
