Boston National Park Service Salem Visitor Center Hotels

"The location is amazing. The Counter had good food. Very helpful and nice staff. Very clean. The bed was not comfortable at all for either of us and the heat did not work in our room so it got pretty cold. No mini fridge or microwave in the room. Overall a great stay!"

"Location cannot be beat, a lot of Salem sights are a walkable distance from this hotel. Staff was very friendly and we had no issues with them. The hotel's "recent" renovations look nice but it's obvious that cheaper quality was chosen instead of splurging. The floors in the room were stuck down vinyl that is popping and peeling. The cabinet in the room housing the fridge and microwave continually popped all day and night. The bedframe is nice, but the mattress was cheap and uncomfortable. Springs poking, sagging and the like made it a long and uncomfortable week when it was supposed to be a relaxing getaway. Even in the off season it felt overpriced at the end of our stay."

"Nice room in a good spot close to downtown"

"The house is decorated very nicely, and was very clean. The bed was comfortable too. Had to check out early for a meeting, but wished we could have stayed longer. Maybe next time:)"

"Hawthorne is the best!"

"Hotel was cool. Rooms were just what we expected. Pictures were right on. "

"Clean and nicely decorated room, very nice staff who helped navigate us to the house we were staying in! Very easy and good communication and yummy inclusive breakfast!!"

"Our stay at the Warlock House was nothing short of magical—truly one of the most unique and memorable travel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped inside, we were completely immersed in a whimsical, spellbinding atmosphere that perfectly captures the spirit of Salem. Every room is thoughtfully designed, from the enchanting “Haunting Hallway” to the cozy, beautifully themed bedrooms. The attention to detail is incredible—there are surprises and delightful touches everywhere you look, making the entire house feel like an interactive experience rather than just a place to stay. The house strikes the perfect balance between fun and comfort. The beds were extremely comfortable. The Herbarium (where I slept) felt like a peaceful, healing sanctuary. I have never slept better in my life. The house was spotless and the modern amenities (fast Wi-Fi, smart lighting, and a fully equipped kitchen) made everything effortless, especially my morning coffee. We loved the customizable lighting and magical “spell” features in the Spirit Parlor —they added such a playful, immersive element to our stay. I spent a good amount of time in the Parlor, spinning the Wheel of Fortune and reflecting on some upcoming career opportunities. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better. We were just a short walk from iconic attractions like the Salem Witch Museum and the Peabody Essex Museum, which made exploring the city incredibly easy and enjoyable. I loved taking walks into town, admiring the architecture and having easy access to shopping! What really sets the Warlock House apart is how much personality it has. It’s clear the hosts put tremendous care into creating an experience that feels special, immersive, and just plain fun. Whether you’re a fan of Halloween, history, or just looking for something completely different, this place delivers in every way. We left already talking about when we can come back—and next time, we’re staying even longer. Highly, highly recommend for anyone looking to experience Salem in the most magical way possible!"

"It’s a fantastic old house. Great place to stay if you’re looking for a unique experience in Salem"
