The Hawthorne Hotel was a great location and the room had plenty of space for our group. The staff were amazingly helpful and went above and beyond when I wasn't feeling well. The afternoon cider was delightful and especially lovely after a cold day outside. We did not eat in the restaurant but the smells were wonderful. The only negative is that the hotel is showing some signs of age and my knees touched the wall while using the restroom. We would totally stay there again.

Small rooms

Pros: I loved the aesthetic of the hotel—it perfectly complements the charm and history of Salem. Its location is fantastic, within walking distance of many of the city's attractions. We had breakfast in the dining room, which was a delightful experience, and the live music added a whimsical touch. The staff was generally friendly and even allowed us to check in early, which we appreciated. Cons: Unfortunately, our room felt like the smallest one in the hotel. It had just a bed, a small table, and a single chair, with barely enough space to move around. The bathroom was especially cramped—you could stand and turn, but that was about it. Cleanliness was average, and the wallpaper was peeling, which took away from the overall ambiance. In conclusion, I wouldn’t stay here for more than a night. Be prepared to get up close and cozy with your travel companion. Next time, we’ll be looking for a quaint B&B instead.

Overall great stay. All of the staff were super friendly and accommodating. The beds were very comfortable (don’t say that often for hotels). Majority of the things are within a short walk from the hotel. Plenty of dining options near by. If you decide to drive or have rental car, you won’t have to worry about paying for parking or finding a spot as there’s plenty available.

Loved everything, but there was an incident with a staff member in the dinning room on our last day. He chastised me cloudy for taking a seat, after another staff directed me to take a seat. It really upset me,. To the point where we almost left. Funny how one bad instance can affect the whole stay.

Hotel is beautiful, but rooms are really small. Housekeeping was not great- left room service trays in room and didn’t clean the table, But polite. Room service was a little difficult as it was hard to get a hold of and they forgot things- but again very polite and apologetic. Food in the Tavern was amazing, but no microwaved in the room made it hard to enjoy leftovers.
