Restive retreat
Just overnight for a short stay. This hotel has a bnb vibe. It's a restored 1729 building with good-sized clean rooms. It's quirky, with narrow stairs to each floor (no elevators). There's a bar and a couple of public guest areas. it's in the middle of historic Marblehead, so everything's within a short walk. Staff was accommodating in finding places to eat and quickly fixing a heating issue. Wifi is a little slow

Very cozy and comfortable
The building and rooms are beautiful and very well cared for. Staff were all extremely nice and helpful. The spa room has a great tub, cozy fireplace, and very comfy bed. Breakfast is totally decent, though not remarkable. Overall, a great stay.

It really is just the best!
My husband and I stayed here Nov 1-5, for our 15 Year Anniversary. It was such a wonderful stay! The place is so nice. Bed linens were so comfortable I peeked at the tag to get the brand so I could order them for our home. Same with the towels and wash cloths! Everything was very luxurious feeling. The breakfast offered each morning was always yummy, with a good variety of options to choose from. Very clean, and very friendly staff! We would (and hopefully will) absolutely stay here again!!

A Colonial Oasis
With its gorgeous interiors and warm, friendly staff, Harbor Light Inn charmed us from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, cozy wine and cocktail offerings were available in the evening, and an in-room fireplace to boot. Can't wait for our next stay!

Perfection! The Harbor Light Inn is the place to stay to feel transported to another time and place. Perfectly located between Salem and Boston, so visiting both are in the cards. The service is top notch, the property is something out of a story or movie, and you’ll instantly want to just live here.
