Walking Distance to all things Salem!
Room was cute, but tight. Great use of space, but small. The location was right in the middle of all things Salem, easy walk to everywhere. Be aware, no parking near the hotel and you will need to walk from a parking deck with your bags.

It was a nice place. The entrance through a cafe was a bit different and no parking was also. Make sure you pack light and be prepared to walk a bit with your luggage. There is parking close by, the rooms were amazing and the staff was amazing! You are right in the heart of Essex street and easy walking distance to just about everything.

The location was right in the heart of everything Salem and we walked everywhere. The staff was delightful. The room itself could use some updating and the curtains were broken.

In town boutique hotel
Clean boutique hotel. Room clean and styled nice. But small. Hotel roof top bar nice. Hotel advertises parking available, but note that parking is not on site..it is either street or public lot/garage. Parking made check in and out a bit inconvenient.

We were in Salem for a family wedding. The Hotel is on a walking street and closest parking (meter) is a block away. We didn't know this when we booked. We had good weather but moving bags to the hotel and back to the car could have been a problem in the rain as would have been walking to the car in our wedding attire. Other than that, the Hotel was a good place to explore Salem.

Pros and Cons
The staff was always friendly and accommodating. The hotel is in an amazing location in Salem. Walking distance to everything. The cost is quite pricey because of location which was fine, but I expected the hotel to be nicer. Elevators smell with dirty carpet that needs vacuuming. No privacy in the bathrooms because the rolling doors leave big gaps and won’t stay closed. The blow dryer is a joke. Who knew they made them so small? Carpet and tvs need updating. Great rooftop bar/restaurant.

We stayed in a suite with a loft area and really found the space ideal for our family of four. The kids loved having their own space up the stairs! The staff was friendly and professional.

When Reserving, Check the Room Size
We very much enjoyed our stay at The Hotel Salem. Some rooms are nice and large. Others are very small. Fortunately, we had a large room, whereas our travel companions were in a very very cozy room. I'm not crazy about how the layouts of the bathrooms are. The shower and vanity are in one room, then you walk across the entry to get to the commode area. A somewhat cumbersome arrangement. The hotel does have a lot of character and a very nice rooftop bar. There is also a downstair bar with a grill, which is very nice as well. The staff is very nice and friendly. I would stay there again, but would want to make sure I am getting one of the large rooms.
