The Bell Inn

Grand historic building renovated to to modern standards. Exceptionally clean, and expertly renovated to meet modern standards. Carpet, floors, walls, windows, every thing spotless. We loved the restaurant and bar downstairs.

Loved the property itself. The staff is wonderful. It is located on a busy corner and there’s street traffic noise 24/7. Other than that…it’s a wonderful place.

We arrived and we're told we were upgraded from the standard room I booked into the Lexington Suite. This was the nicest biggest most well appointed hotel room I have ever seen. The shower alone was worth the cost of the room. The bathroom is bigger then my bedroom growing up. Megan the GM was very helpful and the neighborhood was nice and very walkable. I'd give it a 150 out of 10 and would stay again in a heartbeat.

We were celebrating our 44th wedding anniversary. The hotel was very nice and accommodating. We had a blast. The food was great too.

This place is so beautiful! When we booked I didnt know the rooms were above a Tavern . But it was wonderful! The restaurant is so classy and the staff was so friendly. I will come back to the area and stay here again. The tavern closes early so very quiet at night.

Amazing stay. Bed frame needed to be fixed but it was a super comfy bed. Pretty sure the kids loved the hotel more than the rest of the trip.

Staff were great, property was beautiful, clean etc. We ended up having issue with the AC & we are all used to sleeping in a cool room. The only one who slept was my youngest but even she woke often. Everything, the beds etc., were very comfortable but I got zero sleep, hubby got a little, & my other daughter did get some. We were there to attend graduation @ Salem State. We were on the 2nd floor which inherently would be warmer on a warmer day anyhow so having the ac not work wasn't thrilling. I didn't want to call down at 1:00 a.m. & wait for maintenance then have everyone up and wait for an unknown amount of time to have them fix for us to then try to get sleep only to be up at 6:00 a.m. departure. Fresh fruit was nice but the pastries, I have to admit weren't great. Muffins were hard as rocks. Croissants were ok. We had dinner on-site because I didn't want to drive more after traveling to get there. Food was worth every penny & more. AWESOME! I had a cheeseburger stew and it was awesome. I don't eat much anyhow but it was awesome. The rest of the meals were just as awesome. Our server was spectacular. We were downstairs in the bar area. There was a wedding dinner party @ the hotel so we decided probably best to go hide lol. All in all I would definitely stay here again as the issue was totally isolated. Gorgeous, clean, comfortable, beautiful & staff great and we love this style buildings. No one there for checkout, no staff around at all so bit strange but no issues.

I found this property last minute, booking the day of travel. It is a gem! The employees were all so friendly and the history of the property (revolutionary war era) is fascinating! It was a 1-mile walk to historic Salem, MA. I can’t say enough good things about the Inn and especially the employees. Highly recommend this quaint, charming destination.

Such a beautiful inn with very nice room and comfortable bed. The included continental breakfast with fresh fruit was a nice bonus.
