From the moment you step under the blue awning and through the double doors, the historic Hawthorne Hotel will make you feel right at home. It starts with personal service from a seasoned staff who believe that hospitality is the cornerstone of an exceptional stay. The Hawthorne has been an integral part of the city of Salem and Boston's North Shore since its inception in 1925. This beautifully restored, stately Federal-style hotel is named for author Nathaniel Hawthorne, who spent his childhood in Salem. While the hotel is steeped in historical charm, its warm and inclusive spirit is timeless.

Elegant stays with a storied past.

Rest easy on locally crafted mattresses paired with hypoallergenic pillows, thoughtfully selected to ensure a restful night's sleep. In your bathroom, you'll find natural, organic bath products that add a touch of wellness to your stay. You’ll also enjoy complimentary access to the local YMCA, an ideal option for keeping up with your fitness routine while traveling.

The Hawthorne Hotel features two in-house restaurants, giving you options and variety. Honor the hotel's namesake with breakfast or dinner at Nathaniel's, which offers American fare in a setting inspired by the 1920s. Prefer to eat like a local? The Tavern on the Green is the perfect hangout to catch a game over New England beers or to unwind with the family after a day of regional exploration. In the winter months, a roaring fireplace creates the ideal atmosphere to relax with friends.
