Historic Charm
PERFECT location. The "character" was spot on for why we were in Salam. Lots of historic charm and character. But if you're looking for updated comfort this isn't your hotel. Think peeling wallpaper, old carpet, tile and grout and small spaces.

The room was nice but there was a loud wedding reception with music that went on late, then room next door were very loud, then the roof (we were on the top floor) was having very loud repairs directly above us. I couldn't wait to get out and was offered a full refund.

I will always choose the Hawthorne Hotel in Salem!
This is my second time staying at the Hawthorne Hotel and it was amazing. The staff are so kind and helpful. The rooms are great (REALLY love the pillows!!). The shower is hot and powerful. The best part is it is in the heart of everything. You can walk everywhere. I will be back, but hopefully it won't be 18 years between visits this time.
