Rising six stories, the Salem Waterfront Hotel & Suites on Pickering Wharf Marina blends a contemporary outlook with an appreciation for the area's proud past. It is Salem's newest boutique hotel with a warm nautical décor. The 86 rooms and suites have handsome wood furnishings, fabrics in soothing shades and windows that let in lots of light. Look for flat-panel TVs with cable channels, pillowtop beds and high-end Keurig coffeemakers. There are complimentary wired and wireless internet connections available throughout the property, and loaner iPads are available in the lobby. Local calls are free, as are morning newspapers in lobby. It is the only hotel downtown Salem with a heated indoor pool, and the fitness room is packed with cardio and strength-training equipment. Specializing in locally caught seafood, the on-site restaurant, The Regatta Pub, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner for a "Cool and Casual Fare with Flair". In warmer weather, the tables spill out onto the patio and on cooler nights we have roaring firepits for guests to relax and enjoy a beverage or meal next to. Laundry service is a plus and Parking is always free. Our doormen will be most happy to assist with luggage assistance. LOCATION: With more than 300 years of history just outside the front door, the Salem Waterfront Hotel is a great base for exploring. The hotel sits at Pickering Wharf, close to lots of shopping and dining opportunities. Within walking distance are attractions like the Peabody Essex Museum and the historic Phillips House. Boston Logan International Airport is 15 miles southwest and Boston is 20 miles.

Seaford, Delaware1 contribution
So very disappointed. Hotel was under construction; no restaurant, no gym, not any of the extras experienced at Halloween. Staff not friendly or helpful. Housekeeping basically only makes your bed. Not at the service or high quality experienced in the past. Will certainly try other places for next trip. TV had minimal services during the week. No streaming, no gaming, internet sketchy with phones. Over weekend TV was up to full capacity. Booked room with water view was told only King bedrooms get a water view. Vending machine was broke, tons of sodas were at the bottom blocking and one from obtaining their purchase. Very disturbing for a blind convention attendees unaware of where their purchase went. Reported to a Crystal who refunded our funds. She was consistently more professional & helpful than other staff. No directions provided at checkin no book left in the room for guidance on hotel policies. Lacked the friendliness I've come to expect at this hotel for the price you pay. Bragged to friends it was the best in all of Salem but truly disappointing. Hotel had about 3 months to warn us they would be under construction but failed to update us that service would be limited. Based on the lack of cheer the staff presented one can only assume they are unhappy and not treated well by employer. Curious if their are new owners. Was very bespoke in the past now just a typical Sheraton vibe.

The hotel had no heat! Rooms were cold and unable to use the pool. Front desk workers were wearing their winter coats acting like there was not a problem. Construction started at 7:50am on a Sunday. Front desk did not care. Save your money!!!!

Ideal for visiting downtown Sale. We had some problems with the TV and the room heat failed, but otherwise this was a pretty good stay. The problems may have been related to recent and on-going renovations.

The hotel hallway was unheated, our room was also freezing, no heat in the bathroom 🥶yup cold ! The furniture was dated like 1980 and worn down, just looked like free furniture of the street. Our curtains didn’t fit and we’re away from the wall by 5” and the outside lamppost light kept us awake. The other window had a construction shoot outside (leading to a huge dumpster) that blocked our view completely. What a huge disappointment! You should be ashamed to even rent this hotel out until you completely renovate it!

Pool closed the entire weekend with no explanation. Door left ajar and unattended for HOURS by house keeping with no safes in the room. Room service orders were wrong but speedy. Construction on floor above us without informing us of renovations or posting on website. Promised microwave and fridge in email but told they don’t do that on second floor BUT I could upgrade my room if I wanted it, upon check in. Overall not worth the price I paid if the amenities are not available, and none were. But it was a quick walk to all attractions and within the city.

Great location. Shame about the noise and unfriendly reception on arrival. No frigobar was a complete shock given the cost of the room per night. I would l not recommend this hotel to others based on my experience.

Very nice hotel with updated finishes and very decent bedding and towels. Great location (with ample onsite parking) and within easy walking distance of several dining and entertainment options. Pretty harbor location. Staff is genuinely friendly and helpful. The room we were in Deluxe King was pretty and SPOTLESSLY clean.

The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. It was one of the nicest places we have stayed in a long time. The shops right behind the hotel are top notch and we wish we would’ve went to those first before heading to Essex street! They are hidden gems! You won’t be disappointed with your stay here!
