What guests say
9 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 423 guest reviews
The Salem Inn earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment across these reviews, with guests consistently praising its unbeatable central location, historic New England charm, attentive staff, and included breakfast. A small number of guests flag practical shortcomings — no elevator, limited blackout window coverings, parking confusion, and the occasional comfort issue with beds or room condition — and at least one reviewer felt the experience did not justify the price. For most guests, however, the character, cleanliness, and convenience make it a highly recommended base for exploring Salem.
