Top Salem Hotel Reviews

Harborside Inn Of Boston

Harborside Inn Of Boston

8/10 Good
"The staff wasn't very friendly. Although the bathroom tubs are jacuzzi's, the tubs are awkward to get in and out. The room decor included small dinette tables which seemed out of place. The bed slept comfortably. However, the pillows were too soft. The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Boston with many great restaurants nearby as well as the Freedom Trail."

"Location was great for walking the city. Parking was quite expensive but attached to hotel. The arrangement of the elevators and location of the lobby and pool/workout room was confusing. Room was clean and nice size. Great decor and modern design. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful on visiting the city. Ate at hotel restaurant—excellent."
