Top Gloucester Hotel Reviews

Lakeside Inn

8/10 Good

"Staff was very nice, room cleanliness was ok but definitely needed updating. All in all the hotel satisfied our needs"

Sonesta Select Boston Danvers

10/10 Excellent

"/"

The Cove At Salem

10/10 Excellent

"The facility appears to be new and exceptionally clean. The rooms a large with comfortable furniture. The bathrooms are well equipped and clean. You get a combination code for your room which is nice. No need to keep track of a key. There is plenty of parking for now but more rooms are being built. Cell phone service (at least Verizon) is TERRIBLE around the hotel. They have WIFI that works fairly well in the evening, but I found that when the staff is in the office, WIFI performance degrades a great deal. I don't know what they are doing to sap the bandwidth. For television, they provide Roku boxes on TVs. You can use your home account to access whatever streaming service that is supported by Roku. Just make sure you delete the quick access link which is supposed to delete your personal streaming accounts. If you're looking at going into Salem for the museums, etc., it is about a 20 minute walk. The sidewalks are very uneven, so the walk could be troublesome for those with walkers and canes. For restaurants and stores, that 20 minute walk is necessary. There is a breakfast place with 4 or 5 tables that you can reach within 10 minutes by walking. The staff pointed out they have something called "Skipper" for transportation and provided a phone number. They really should have mentioned the need to set up an account with Skipper before trying to arrange a ride. A map of the area should also be provided at the hotel. Some are free at the attractions."

"Room clean, nice view friendly and knowledgeable front desk staff. Great breakfast. Definitely will stay there again"

Extended Stay America Suites Boston Peabody

8/10 Good

"The gentleman at the desk was quick with checkin. He was friendly and welcoming, very quick to act when we requested items for our room. He was also very helpful when I had laundry issues. The lobby and hallways were very clean as was the elevator. Our room was wheelchair accessible right from the door. In this room the bed was lower and medium firm, rollin shower with a shower chair, lower counters and grab bars in bathroom with good turning radius. The room also had a kitchenette that isnt accessible as it is a galley style. You also need to order everything at the desk ie coffee maker, dishes, cookware. That was inconvenient but definitely not a big deal and I understand it is to control loss. The only real downer was this room faced the interstate so a lot of road noise all night long. We would definitely stay again."

Sea Lion Motel and Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was extremely helpful and accomodating. They made arrangements for a late check in which was effortless and well explained. They even turned our lights on so our room was ready. The property is quaint and well kept. Rooms were clean and spacious. Great location. Easily accessible to the train and town. Would definitely stay again!"

"Very friendly staff Rooms were very clean Beautiful area to visit"

Ocean House Hotel at Bass Rocks

10/10 Excellent

"The location of this hotel was incredible. Overlooking the ocean, with a large balcony, and a lovely walkway along the ocean. The room was large and clean and comfortable with a couch and seating area. The bathroom was small but adequate. We walked to the hotel next door for a nice breakfast. The pool area was inviting but too cool to enjoy when we went. We'd definitely go back."
