Many visitors to Salem come on day-trips from Boston by car or MBTA Commuter Rail train, but if you'd like to stay overnight in this interesting city, there are numerous possibilities.

Salem itself has several historic hotels and inns, and there are many more modern lodgings in neighboring towns, the closest of which are Peabody and Beverly (map), with Danvers being a bit farther away (about 5 miles/8 km).

Be sure to reserve well in advance if you plan to visit on or near Halloween! More...

Here are some suggestions:

The Salem Inn
Three historic houses in the center of Salem have been restored to accept visitors in 40 guest rooms. The original Salem Inn at 7 Summer Street (map), is only a half block from the Witch House and two blocks from the Peabody Essex Museum. The inn's other houses, the West House, Curwen House and Peabody House, are nearby. Parking and continental breakfast are included in the rates. More...

Hawthorne Hotel
This restored 89-room hotel at 18 Washington Square West (map), at the southwest corner of Salem Common is within easy walking distance of all the important sights in Salem. Lots of wood paneling, brass chandeliers and old prints and paintings set a historical mood in the public rooms, though furnishings in the guest rooms are somewhat more modern.
