The Merchant was truly such a beautiful building inside and out. The interior design and overall vibes were immaculate. It was so relaxing and had anything you could need, spots to hang out inside and outside. refrigerators for your food and drinks, and complementary snacks and drinks 24/7! I also loved how close it was to everything, it was basically in the center of town and a five minute walk to all the fun shops and places! the parking situation was easy as well!
United States of AmericaThe staff was wonderful. They were in constant contact with us to make sure our stay was perfect. The room was clean and comfortable with beautiful decor. The location is perfect. Its right in the middle of everything but it's also quiet and peaceful. They included breakfast to go with a Nespresso machine for your use. The kitchen was also stocked with wonderful healthy snacks. We parked on site for an extra charge. Do not hesitate and book the parking spot along with your reservation because parking in Salem is awful. One of the best things about the hotel were the guests who were staying there. Everyone was friendly and pleasant and it and created such a wonderful atmosphere. The Merchant has become our new getaway spot.
United States of AmericaWe were very happy with our stay. They contacted us before our arrival and stayed in contact right up until we arrived. They were the most responsive of any property we've ever stayed at. The room was very spacious and well-decorated. The bathroom was gorgeous with a great shower! The bed was very comfortable. The fireplace was romantic and kept the room nice and cozy. The complimentary snacks available around the clock in the pantry are great when you don't want to go out.
