Reviews of Salem Waterfront Hotel & Suites
April Wedding
We did photos out on the water and then in the lobby, everything in the hotel is updated so it made for a beautiful backdrop. Even the bridal photos we did in the room turned out better than I could’ve imagined because the newly renovated hotel rooms were gorgeous. We ended the night at the regatta pub. Can’t recommend this venue enough!
Beyond amazing
Such a beautiful venue & location. They brought my wedding dream come to life. I even have GI issues & they accommodated me. I have so many nice things to say that I'll run out of room haha. They are the perfect place to get married.
Best day of our lives
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!
Everyone from the front desk clerks, to the bartender at the pub, and the concierge were so nice and accommodating. They took care of some last minute details that I had overlooked in my wedding planning haze, like meals for the day of! I had breakfast sent up and later we had champagne and mimosas with sandwiches sent up for the girls and I when we were getting glammed up. Ryan was so helpful especially. My hairdresser needed some taller chairs brought up so she could have us at a better height and Ryan brought them right up. We had an excellent experience here!
