The owner and staff at Cape Ann Motor Inn could not have been more accommodating and pleasurable during our stay, which was during Hurricane Irene last year. They were wonderful to us. Our deep sea fishing trip was cancelled due to Irene, and we still had a great time. The Inn was very clean and the view extraordinary. We stayed... More

All rooms open out towards the beach, so even with your door shut you can hear the undulating waves through the morning and look forward to a spectacular sunrise and easy walk-and-play. The hotel is old-school but clean and smells good. A talkative parrot lives in the lobby. We were there on the off-season for a base rate of $85... More

What a great view thru the sliding doors of your room,steps to the sea. Affordable great location.Dog friendly. More

Just needed a place to stay for a night and came across this place. On the ocean! Fantastic views. Leave your door open a tad and listen to the ocean waves. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Excellent coffee and pastry in the morning. If you like "Hoey Paloy" this is not your place, but if you like down to... More

I read the reviews, and drove by the place the last time we were in Gloucester. Pretty unbeatable if you want the beach at your doorstep. The photos are accurate; you walk out your door and on to a huge, pretty private beach. (We were there in September 2011, so it wasn't really busy on the beach, but the hotel... More

The balconies were all interconnected--one long balcony running the length of the building. A bit unnerving if you wanted privacy, and disturbing for the amount of cigarette... More

This was a nice place to stay. It's an older place. It's not a luxury resort. But if you want to get away from it all, and you want to bring your dog, it's a good place to go. There is no boardwalk there. I really liked it. You walk out of the hotel and you are right on the... More

Where else can you walk through a door and have a view of the ocean without spending extra money for 'ocean view'. Just lovely. Room is comfortable; bed; couch, table and chairs. Sliding door opens for balcony with outside seating. Breakfast is included; coffee; tea and/or orange juice; muffins or donuts. More

Met my family here for a weekend gathering. The Inn is a small (40 rooms+/-), seems like a family run business. All of the employees that I happened across, were very friendly and helpful. The Rooms were clean and comfortable. If you're looking for Marriott type rooms, stay at a chain hotel. The lack of a/c isn't a problem. The... More
