“Elegant 18th-century mansion located in the centre of historic Marblehead. Individually designed rooms feature exposed wooden beams, antique furnishings, original raised panel windows and crackling fires which transport you back to another time. A romantic base for local exploring.”

Hotel Review

Well-placed in the scenic harbour district of Marblehead, the Harbor Light Inn encapsulates quaint New England style close to Salem, scene of the infamous witch trials. Rooms are individually styled — some with canopy beds, wingback chairs and gas fires while others feature private patios and cathedral ceilings. Fresh flowers and in-room massages are available to make your stay super special, but the best memories are made in The Tavern chatting with local sailors. The Admiral’s House furnished apartments facilitate longer stays without sacrificing the inn’s charms — expect a full kitchen, living room and private bathroom with a twice weekly maid service. From Harbor Light Inn you have easy access to the harbour itself, plus delightful trinket shops and seafood restaurants.
