Hawthorne Hotel

The Hawthorne Hotel has been an integral part of the city of Salem since its completion in 1925. The stately, beautifully restored, federal-style hotel is named for author Nathaniel Hawthorne, who grew up in Salem, worked as Surveyor of the Port at the Salem Custom House, and wrote The Scarlet Letter from his nearby home. The Hawthorne Hotel, which overlooks Salem Common and the Witch Museum, is the perfect base for exploring Salem and the North Shore. Located in the Salem Common Historic District, the hotel is within walking distance of numerous historic sites and attractions, including the PEM, House of the Seven Gables, Pickering Wharf, and Front Street.
