Stayed here with my husband, after a much needed night away. The Inn is located in the historic district of Marblehead, within walking distance to the eclectic shops of Washington Street and close to the harbor. We were greeted with warmth and a rose for Valentine's Weekend...Chocolates left on our bed too. We explored the area by car, at first,... More

My husband and I recently stayed there, and it was all around 5 stars. We had a Fireplace and a jacuzzi room that was to die for. Nice tavern and access to some great restaurants in Marblehead. The staff was super-accommodating. Loved the full breakfast! And it was really great. We definitely will be back. More

Besides all the wonderful amenities, they have a great tavern, fire places and it's located right down town in the historic section of Marblehead. My favorite part is that they have a full free breakfast, that changes everyday.....not continental, but a FULL FREE BREAKFAST. The best, all around. Great staff, as well. More

Finally got back after a number of years. That won't happen again. Last time stayed at a furnished apartment up the street. It was great but wanted to be spoiled this trip and did not need the kitchen. Read all the reviews online and decided to upgrade to an upscale inn. Stayed in a fireplace room on third floor that...

My fiance and I spent a Saturday night in January. Even though the weather was freezing outside, this historic inn was warm and cozy inside. All the common rooms, as well as our room, had working fireplaces. The general manager, Susan George, was a wonderful host and gave us great advice on dining choices in the area. The Inn serves...

Extremely well appointed makeover of a 1729 home into a great inn. The fireplace room is warm and inviting and the bar is quite amazing. More

For my girlfriend's birthday, she wanted to get away from Cambridge, and spend some time at a place where we could put aside our worries and enjoy ourselves. Somewhere quiet, too, because—as hardcore master's students—we both needed to spend some time studying as well. I did my research. This place is the best in the Marblehead/Salem area. Our visit only... More
