The Hawthorne is an older small hotel perfect for a visit to Salem. The rooms are simple but comfortable, parking is available, and most importantly, it is located conveniently within walking distance to all the Salem sites, including the Peabody Essex Museum. They serve a great full breakfast and the traditional lobby is very comfortable for sitting and chatting or catching up on emails.

My daughter and I had a fun, witchy time in Salem. The Hawthorne is perfectly placed close to everything she wanted to see. The food and drinks at the Tavern were fantastic; the staff knowledgeable and caring, and the hotel beautiful. I would definitely stay here again.

Great older, city hotel. The staff was very friendly, and the free parking was very convenient. I would definitely stay here again. Unfortunately, they can only have their hvac system on heat or air, so if we wanted the system running, we were too warm. Also, the room above us was being vacuumed at 8am, waking us up.
