Location was perfect to get to nearby restaurants and shops. We didn't need our car at all to get around. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Also free/easily accessible parking was included and to the rear and side of hotel. My daughter and I really enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was a bonus and lots to choose from.

10! Absolutely beautiful! Love, love, loved the room. So often Inn breakfast is mostly inedible for healthy people. Yours was sooo good! Can't say enough about it. We had a beautiful pre-breakfast walk on the beach and then a fabulous post-breakfast and car-free bike ride out to the end of Plum Island and back.
Just wish we could afford more nights but we'll be back for sure.

Just the right amount of shops and good restaurants--the city did a fantastic job of 'restoring' Newburyport in the '60s and it is just charming. Of course the port/waterfront itself is the star. I could never get enough of just sitting and enjoying that view. The number of beautiful historic houses is astonishing. I would go back in a heartbeat.

What I like the most is that it didn't look like a motel at all look like a home in the queen Suite that I had was actually like a home to me I wish I could have stayed longer I was actually hoping that there would be a tub to take a bubble bath. The shower was a bit small I love, my room had a fireplace also they living room had a pull out bed in the couch that was great also the location of the Inn was near restaurants and stores it was awesome. I had a great night at the paddle inn which was only a 2-minute walk around the corner

The restaurant situation sucked.
The restaurant situation sucked. We went out for dinner at 5 thinking we were early enough to get in. Because of covid19 most restaurants had an hour or more wait already! No bars were open so an after dinner drink is out of the question.

Newburyport is a great combination of modern and historical, and my favorite birdwatching location (Plum Island) is only a 5-minute drive away. The town is easily walkable, and there's lots of public parking.
We ate at a great restaurant - The Grog - on Middle St. Relatively inexpensive and a fine menu.

The shopping is great. Also the restaurants are great. Plenty of both. The best think I like about it is you walk everywhere. You come in and park the car at the Inn and walk everywhere. Great location.

It is located on the ocean. Very walkable city.
It is located on the ocean. Very walkable city. It is dog friendly. Large choice of restaurants. We took an hour boat cruise on the river. It was a gorgeous day, and the captain was very knowledgeable.. There are whale watching boats that also leave from the river.
Assortment of shops geared to all ages!
Hidden gem!!
The staff were wonderful, especially the general manager. When I realized the stairs were very steep, she was able to move us to a room on the first floor. Breakfast was described as "continental" but it was waaay more than that. The room was super comfortable especially the bed. I can't say enough great things about this place and the town of Newburyport is so quaint and walkable. Definitely stay here if you get the chance.
A very charming inn! The breakfast was very good and cooked fresh every morning. I really enjoyed the coffee that was available throughout the day. The room was cozy and very clean, and the bed was comfortable! I also appreciated the on-site parking. The customer service was superb! Kenzie was very professional and welcoming. Very central location in Newburyport. Would definitely recommend!
First and foremost, the architecture of this magnificent building is stunning. The breakfast was excellent, and the staff was very accommodating and helpful. Parking was easy and access to downtown so comfortable. We happened to be in Newburyport during an unusual heat wave (over 100 F for 3 days). Fortunately, the hotel was air-conditioned and very comfortable.
Simple, clean and historic. Great location to get to anywhere in Newburyport or Plum Island. Loved running to the beach and on the water/ rail trail loop. Kitchen was very functional, although we mostly just used it for coffee in the morning, we easily could have made more involved meals. The sitting area was a nice space and the bedrooms were quiet and clean.
I had a very nice stay with my family at the hotel. Each room was decorated delicately. The best breakfast I had during the entire trip was at this hotel. The workers at front desk were really kind and helpful. Besides, I want to thank Joady for her help. My son forgot his AirPods at the hotel room and she helped me to ship them back to my house. Thanks!
I have visited Newburyport for family visits for 28 yrs. My sister suggested Essex Inn... It WILL be our place to stay when we visit again. Great location, beautiful building, very comfy, Ask for room 330, its basically an apartment. Highly recommended.
The location is perfect! You can park your car and walk everywhere! The breakfast is fantastic and the staff is wonderful! The inn is very beautiful and the accommodate are very comfortable. I always stay at the Compass when I visit Newburyport!
Our room was beautiful, cozy and clean. The view of the beach was amazing and having breakfast and fresh coffee delivered to the room in the morning was a really nice touch. We had a fabulous stay and would highly recommend this hotel.
Beautifully maintained B&B with light, spacious suites, lovely common areas, delicious breakfasts and snacks, and welcoming innkeepers. Perfect location around the corner from Newburyport shops and restaurants and harbor walkway.
The location was amazing. directly on the beach..accommodations beautiful and very comfortable. a carafe of fresh brewed coffee and basket of delicious breakfast goodies delivered to your door every morning . our stay was perfect!
Breakfast was small but tasty! This hotel has lots of character and old charm, but rooms are clean and modern! I thought I wanted to be closer to the beach, but being in town definately had it's perks.
Location is great for walking around shops and restaurants and the waterfront. Room is perfectly decorated, up to date and clean. Does not feel like a hotel room. A good selection of breakfast foods.
Perfect location in downtown Newburyport with easy access to restaurants and pubs. Comfortable rooms in 3 nice houses located in a quiet street. Helpful staff.
