My Experience at Salem Waterfront Hotel

The Salem Waterfront Hotel has a pretty traditional hotel ballroom, but the real advantage is the location. You’re right in downtown Salem at Pickering Wharf, close to the water, shops, restaurants, and everything else going on in that part of the city.

For couples who want the convenience of a hotel wedding but also want their guests to feel like they’re part of a full Salem weekend, it works really well. Guests can stay on-site, walk around downtown, and enjoy the area before and after the wedding without having to go far.
