The Merchant Hotel

With past lives as a home, a tavern, an office building and a rare book shop, The Merchant has now been restored as a luxurious boutique hotel in Salem MA with spacious rooms and high interior design in a private setting. Steeped in Salem's shipping port history, yet with a dash of whimsy, we're confident you'll love staying at this historic gem offering pampering amenities, a curated small plates breakfast, and chic, modern touches. The Merchant is set in the heart of Salem's central historic district, yet with relaxed ambiance. All of Salem's sights, sounds and tastes—sailing, witch trial sites, night life, restaurants, historical attractions—are all only a short stroll away from our boutique hotel in Salem MA. In fact, our newly renovated Salem guest house is a short stroll from The Salem Witch Museum and the world renowned Peabody Essex Museum and a slightly longer walk to Salem Harbor and the House of the Seven Gables.

The land on which Joshua Ward chose to build his house was where Sheriff George Corwin lived and maintained his jail in the 1680s. It was Corwin's self-appointed duty to interrogate anyone suspected of witchcraft, as well as carry out the accused's death sentence. For this reason, our building has a reputation of its own for ghosts and mystery -- even in a town full of intrigue and hauntings. Local legend has it that perhaps the spirits of a few innocent victims of Sheriff Corwin still roam our halls. One of these is a woman sporting wild, black hair who "turned up" in a photograph taken by a former tenant of 148 Washington Street. We've never seen or felt her (or anyone else), but we leave that up to you, your senses and your imagination!
