My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Harbor Light Inn and would happily return.

From check-in to check-out, the staff was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The inn was spotless, fresh-smelling, and inviting throughout our visit.

Our room on the top floor was bright, airy, and comfortable. We appreciated the thoughtful touches, including the daily-refilled water container, suitcase benches, and quality bathroom amenities.

The continental breakfast was delicious and offered a nice variety of options, including eggs, yogurt, granola, cereal, bagels, and fresh coffee. The dining area was charming, and the beautifully landscaped patio and pool area provided a peaceful place to relax.

One evening, we enjoyed spending time in the cozy living room, complete with a chess set, piano, and wine service. It was a wonderful way to unwind.

We also loved exploring the nearby shops and restaurants. Marblehead is a charming and peaceful town, and Harbor Light Inn was the perfect place to stay. We look forward to visiting again.

Nice place but room way too small!

This is a very quaint hotel (there are only 2 'hotels' in Marblehead). The staff were very friendly & helpful, and the main floor (sitting room, dining room, little bar, outdoor greenspace with pool and firepit) was beautiful and spacious, so all good there. However, our room (room 31) was extremely small for two people and their belongings. There was nowhere to put anything! The small dresser was mostly taken up with a Keurig & telephone and the nightstands had lamps with large bases, so they took up most of the space. The bathroom was tiny, with only a 2\" shelf above the sink to place anything on it. In addition, the air conditioning window unit was extremely loud; every time it kicked on during the night, it woke us up. This room for two nights was over $800. Another member of our group stayed at a great Airbnb which was quite spacious and had a full kitchen, for almost half the price of Harbor Light Inn. My advice would be to check around before booking lodging in Marblehead.

I would reccomend this place for sure

I appreciate they have parking on site in the back. We highly recommended staying here if you plan to visit Marblehead or Salem. Easy drive into Salem. Only thing that could have made our stay more perfect was some warm food like scrambled eggs for breakfast. They do offer a very fresh, extensive breakfast with lots of options.

Beautiful, historic, and clean. The staff was the best part. They were so kind and hospitable. Very professional and Lorelei Gilmore herself would approve. I would note that this Inn is best suited for people of a certain age. My husband and I are in our 30s and wore your typical tee shirt and jeans/shirts outfits and the other guests were snooty and sometimes rude, it felt like geriatric middle school with the snickers and stares at breakfast. We took most of our meals in our room. There was a small group of people that awkwardly hogged the pool area during our week long stay. The pool isn’t very big, so three people spread out makes it crowded. We opted to driving to Devereux beach for swimming. Marblehead is very idyllic and I would still recommend the property itself.

Restive retreat

Just overnight for a short stay. This hotel has a bnb vibe. It's a restored 1729 building with good-sized clean rooms. It's quirky, with narrow stairs to each floor (no elevators). There's a bar and a couple of public guest areas. it's in the middle of historic Marblehead, so everything's within a short walk.
Staff was accommodating in finding places to eat and quickly fixing a heating issue.

Very cozy and comfortable

The building and rooms are beautiful and very well cared for. Staff were all extremely nice and helpful. The spa room has a great tub, cozy fireplace, and very comfy bed. Breakfast is totally decent, though not remarkable. Overall, a great stay.

It really is just the best!

My husband and I stayed here Nov 1-5, for our 15 Year Anniversary. It was such a wonderful stay! The place is so nice. Bed linens were so comfortable I peeked at the tag to get the brand so I could order them for our home. Same with the towels and wash cloths! Everything was very luxurious feeling. The breakfast offered each morning was always yummy, with a good variety of options to choose from. Very clean, and very friendly staff! We would (and hopefully will) absolutely stay here again!!

A Colonial Oasis

With its gorgeous interiors and warm, friendly staff, Harbor Light Inn charmed us from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, cozy wine and cocktail offerings were available in the evening, and an in-room fireplace to boot. Can't wait for our next stay!

The staff was very friendly and helpful when I asked about local shops and restaurants. They also leant me an umbrella when it was raining. I'll stay here again next time I'm in town.

Perfection! The Harbor Light Inn is the place to stay to feel transported to another time and place. Perfectly located between Salem and Boston, so visiting both are in the cards. The service is top notch, the property is something out of a story or movie, and you’ll instantly want to just live here.

Great Marblehead Inn!

The Harbor Light Inn is lovely! The staff is very kind, present, and accommodating. Very clean, quiet, and those super smooth sheets, oooooo! I didn't know they had a pool. Wish I had. They recommended a great nearby restaurant, The Landing, which was awesome, on the water, within easy walking distance, and so scrumptious!
