Beautiful hotel in a great location. Walking distance to many local attractions, boutiques and dining venues. Very clean rooms and common areas. Each guest room is unique in its own historical way. Beds are extremely comfortable. Onsite restaurant was wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel anyone staying in the Salem/Beverly/Marblehead/Swampscott/Peabody area.

The property was beautiful, the staff was cheerful and I would have given it 5 stars. But we found a toenail in our room. I know things slip through the cracks but it was big and gross. Great location and I would absolutely stay here again.

This was a very wonderful and relaxing stay for my daughter and I. The staff at the Tavern were top notch and we ended up eating dinner there both nights we stayed. We loved the proximity to everything we wanted to do in the area. Will definitely stay again!
