North Shore, Massachusetts hotel rooms at the Independent

"The room was great. Spacious and comfortable. No view though. Loved the bed pillows. I was also very happy that my room was cleaned everyday. Safe in the room was very nice for valuables. The room was clean but the grout on the bathroom floor needed a scrubbing. Also, the pool and spa were really nice, but also needed a cleaning. The pool deck and tiles were somewhat dirty. Overall, a really nice stay. Would come back."

"This is a great property. It's clean and new furnishings. The room was large and very comfortable. The staff is very friendly. The complimentary breakfast is extensive. I would definitely stay here again."

"Travelled with my parents to take a quick trip to Salem. Loved that there was shopping right next door, also choice of restaurants nearby. They weren’t thrilled with the breakfast options, as they are used to more of a continental buffet style, but it met our needs for our first day and we found the Friendly Toast nearby, which was a fun retro breakfast-brunch place. It was clean, had fluffy towels, but hard to rate staff, as we hardly saw any. (They only clean after 3 nights) fine for us, we’re not pigs lol"

"Wonderful location and a very nice room. Quiet!"

"Shuttle bus was convenient to get to the hotel from airport. It is a good place to rest for layover. There are not much food options near the hotel. "

"Clean, helpful staff, quality room"

"The Hawthorne is the only place we stay in Salem. We love the history and lore. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Rooms are cozy, clean and comfortable. Centrally located so we are able to walk to all that Salem has to offer. "

"Yes"

"Very nice waterfront location, easy walk to Newburyport. Remote Check in was easy. The onsite restaurant was closed during our stay, but there was a very good outdoor restaurant next door. "
