Best Hotels near Southern New Hampshire University, Salem

Clean room, but half of the electrical outlets didn't work. The apartment size refrigerator was hot and never really cooled down. The coffeemaker made cool coffee. The shower was clean and fresh. The floor had food and other particles on it in the bathroom and near the sink. The beds were comfortable. Do ask for a room facing away from the road.

The hotel has free parking, the surrounding hotels are more expensive, this price is OK, breakfast is American, still rich, 9:00 ended, the room space design is reasonable. It is not cleaned thoroughly under the bathroom shower curtain, a bit moldy

the hotel is good and clean! The only thing that i don”t like is that you have to give a deposit of $100 everytime you book!

The rooms here are just ok but they were of standard size, bathrooms were clean and we slept comfortably but nothing special at all. What made a difference to us was that the lobby restaurant was actually pretty good - we had a nice breakfast and one night we got salads quick before bed and they were also tasty, fresh and affordable. The choices in Andover in general are so bad, that I think this may actually be one of the best options available. Frankly, we've been back to Boston several time since then and I've just concluded it's better to stay in the city. But amongst its peers in Andover, this place is probably the way to go.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at the newly renovated Andover Inn. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed as royal guests by the Inn’s attentive staff and manager extraordinaire Brian. Thanks to Brian’s impromptu American history talk, we learned about the notable guests who visited the Inn and the illustrious history of Phillips Andover Academy. Brian also made our visit most memorable by suggesting we visit the nearby Addison Gallery. Highly recommend, the superbly managed Andover Inn.

Booked two nights here based on the reviews and the rate. We felt the rate was very good considering the area. The property is close to the highway, but not too close to create noise. The hotel was very clean, quiet and comfortable. Every staff person we encountered was pleasant, friendly and helpful. There was a full breakfast, which many of the Choice properties are not offering lately. At first it was because of covid, now it feels like it’s to cut costs. The breakfast area was immaculate. I really can’t say enough good things about this property.

This is a quint place, with a unique feel. Do not expect all shiney new. But it is clean, happy with a local feel, and the beds are amazing. Our room was small but nice. The only decorating complaint would be the patchy wall paper. But I know that the school had to house kids there during Covid, so I get it. The bar/restuarnt looks nice, though we were out to our friends at night and did not try it, maybe next time. Nice patio area. We liked the local but euorpean feel, and will be back!

Great pick for a simple getaway! This is our second time in the area, we previously stayed at the Hampton Inn but our experience at Clarion Inn was better, and cheaper all around. The big selling point for me was the price and fact that it was recently renovated. We stayed for two nights, Tuesday July 5 to 7th and had zero issues overall. We checked in late and there was no wait, the hotel felt empty. Our room was 254 which is a corner unit on the second floor and easily accessible from the outside. At first I thought this was a bad sign that we had to reach our room from outside stairs but this was actually a shortcut and made coming in and out a lot easier. We were able to park just steps away from the door. The lobby was clean and presentable, staff was friendly. The room was nice and modern. Bathroom had a large shower instead of a tub and huge counter for the sink which I enjoyed. Bed doesn't seem to have a new mattress, it felt soft and sunken in at times, but the furniture, tv, carpeting and everyhting else in our room was modern. I asked for some extra shampoo at one point and the girl at the front counter was so nice, she offered me extra items if I wanted - they have everything in stock free of charge if ever you need deodorant, toothpaste, toobrushes, shower caps, etc, feel free to ask! Since we stayed on weekdays the entire property felt empty, I think we came across just two other guests during our stay. No noise at night, no noise in hallways - it was amazing. When we were there, the complimentary breakfast was pretty basic, there's coffee, juices, milk, yogourt, some fruits, cereal, muffins/granola bars and a pancake and waffle maker. The pancake maker was really cool, since it is an automated machine. Just place a plate under and with the push of a button, 2 pancackes will be made fresh and rolled out for you. I wish there were hot food items like eggs, sausage or bacon, but I guess with covid and with how empty the hotel was during our stay, it might not make sense to offer these items. (I recently read that the hotel does offer these hot breakfast items, but maybe just on weekends??) My suggestion would be to have at least some hard boiled eggs, these could be kept in the same fridge as the yogourt and can stay good for a few days so it would reduce waste (as opposed to scrambled eggs/omelettes). Note that there is a 99 restaurant located on this property so if ever you want to order something quick for lunch or supper, it's super convenient. I would come back, great value and great experience as a whole.
