Top Ipswich Museum Hotel Reviews

The Wylie Inn and Conference Center at Endicott College

10/10 Excellent

"Room was all around exceptional, staff was very hospitable, friendly and professional. Great experience"

DoubleTree by Hilton Boston North Shore

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and good staff!"

Castle Manor Inn

8/10 Good

"Pleasant inn… clean, and simply appointed. Very friendly staff. Great breakfast for seniors.($15.00). Close to downtown Gloucester short car or taxi ride. Free parking right at the entrance to the room."

Briar Barn Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Everything here is maintained to a high standard. The grounds are immaculate, our room was large and spotless. Our only interaction was with the desk clerk. She was delightful. We only stayed for one night, and since there was a wedding reception going on in the restaurant we didn’t dine there. We did enjoy an evening nightcap on the porch rocking chairs. Breakfast the next morning had only a few selections, but my muffin was delicious, as was the coffee I selected from the lobby machine. We consumed our pastries on the same porch rocking chairs. All in all, a very enjoyable stay. We would certainly return if we are looking for lodging in the area again."

Blue - Inn on The Beach

8/10 Good

"We stayed in the Lark Suite with beachfront views. Parking was convenient. The views were extraordinary; especially the sunrise! The bed was comfortable. The bed and counter surfaces were clean, but the floors were a bit overlooked. It looks like the previous stay had a dog and there was dog hair everywhere on the floor and living room rug. Needed a vacuum and swiffer. Otherwise, we loved our stay!"
