The Hawthorne’s rich history, beauty & central location to all of Salem make it the ideal choice. The dining at the Nathaniel & The Tavern were delicious. The staff at the front desk & housekeeping were all very friendly and kind. I’d recommend anyone looking to stay in Salem to enjoy the rich history; begin at The Hawthorne Hotel.
