Essex County Hotels with Gym

I had a very wonderful experience at the Hampton inn in Haverhill. The atmosphere is so relaxed, and it's very clean, and the service was just outstanding! I am both deaf and have difficulty with my legs, and everybody was so helpful to me. It was wonderful to take a bath in the handicapped accessible bathtub! I haven't been able to take a real bath in years! I will be sure to bring my bath salts the next time around, LOL! And the breakfast was to die for, waffles, omelets, fresh fruit, and the coffee was perfect. I have never had a bad experience at a Hampton inn, but this was an exceptional stay. I just became a Hilton rewards client, and I plan to be staying at Hampton inns a lot in the next year as I travel. Thank you so much for the service you provided.

This property consists of several small separate buildings, each two stories, with 8 units in each building. The buildings do not have elevators, so if you have a lot of luggage either specify a ground floor unit or plan to lug your luggage upstairs. Even the ground floor units in some buildings require climbing a few stairs. The suites themselves are spacious but austere, and the layout was odd but functional. The full kitchen included a full-size fridge with an icemaker, but there is no ice machine available for guests – if you need ice, the front office manager can get it for you from the kitchen. Breakfast in the lobby building was good, perhaps a little better than average for a place like this. Why anyone thought it was a good idea to build separate units in Boston’s climate is beyond me – it was OK to have to walk outside to the breakfast room in October, but it wouldn’t be OK in January! The biggest problem with this place is the road noise, as it sits between I-95 to the east, US 1 to the west, and Andover Street to the north, with heavy traffic on all three. You can try to get a room in a building near the middle of the property, but all the buildings are close to one or the other of these roads.

American breakfast, very simple, Chinese people may not be used to eating, there is a small shopping center next to it, there is a relatively large supermarket, you can buy some food, there is a microwave oven on the floor to heat, very close to the highway, self-driving Convenience.

We were only staying one night so this is the type of hotel we like. Plus, being Marriott Bonvoy members, we were given a room on a high floor away from the elevator. Yay. Check-in was seamless. We were in our suite style room in minutes. I like the expanded space this hotel offers with a desk/kitchenette area separate from the sleeping area. Our room looked out over the wooded area at the back of the hotel but given this hotel's location at the end of the road, I don't think there would be much noise either way. The breakfast area was a little crowded by the way the food is set up in an alcove. But nothing that can't be overcome with a little patience. They offered the standard far of scrambled eggs, sausage patties and waffles. Given our limited time, this was the perfect stop. Would be happy to return.

Based on the reviews, I was nervous when my daughter booked this hotel for 8/19 and 8/20 (king room). But I must say, the hotel grounds are lovely and the common areas were very clean and tidy. Our room was clean, spacious, with a comfortable bed and a great bathroom. We both had a wonderful sleep, and refreshing showers. We had a counter area complete with fridge, microwave, and single coffee pot with supplies. It’s on par with the Hampton Inns I usually book. There’s a Starbucks in the lobby area, with all kinds of drinks, made to order breakfast foods for sale, and friendly competent staff. Both mornings they were cheerful and efficient. We didn’t interact with the front desk much, but they were pleasant. Doggie water bowls in lobby. Parking lot was well-lit and clean. I’d recommend, and will stay here again!

Hilton Honors This past weekend we were camping in New Hampshire. We had two days left on our vacation when sudden lightning storms were moving in. We decided as a family to fold up our tents and call it quits. Well my young granddaughters began crying, this fueled me to call my Hilton Honors and book a couple of rooms for my family of nine. I was on the phone in private to make the reservations and surprise the family. The women on the phone from Hilton Honors was very helpful. She found what she explained was 2 one bedroom suites with fireplaces and all kinds of wonderful things for the whole family. It was in the Laconia NH area just 31 minutes south of where we were. This was perfect because we had to all travel south to head home. As we were traveling towards the property my wife read the email the woman sent me and it was in Andover/ Boston Massachusetts. This is over an hour away. I called the hotel (Homewood Suites) and the hotel clerk told me we could not cancel the reservation and change it to the Laconia one I had made originally. Extremely frustrated I said I’m not gonna ruin this thing I was trying to do. So off to Andover we went. Upon arrival the clerk (the same one I spoke to on the phone) told me they were over booked and they were trying to accommodate us. My entire family was now sitting in the waiting area (9 of us 5 adults 2 toddlers and 2 teenaged girls) waiting patiently for our rooms. We are now wet and just tired from camping, packing and driving. Now the clerk takes us to a 2 bedroom suite that we were ok with and said we would take it. After a few minutes the clerk calls the room and says we can’t stay in this room and that we had to come back to the front desk. All 9 of us went back to the front desk and she informed us that the room was already reserved so I asked like ours was already reserved? She smiled and said the manager was on his way. He arrived 20 minute later and sat at the front desk trying to fiqure out what went wrong. Half and hour later he called us up and explained how Hilton Honors completely messed up our reservation, they over booked like they always do. (His words not mine). He then explained he was trying to accommodate us as best as he could. After about an hour of waiting my wife very frustrated walked up to the desk and asked have we found a room yet?? The girl said “oh yes here’s your Keys”. Wow they couldn’t call us up to the desk while we were 15 feet away waiting for almost 2 hours in total! We all walked to the rooms on the third floor. The first room we walked into was full of empty drinking bottles, unmade beds, towels and garbage everywhere. I called the front desk and she put half my family completely on the other side of the hotel. ( I forgot to mention I was promised adjoining rooms). We were finally after almost 3 hours we were in our rooms! Not once did this manager or his staff come to me and say I am so sorry for any inconveniences we or Hilton Honors may hav

Housing prices in downtown Boston are too expensive. The environment here is great, the room is comfortable, and it's more than 20 minutes away from the airport. It's great.

I stayed at this hotel from 9/13 - 9/15 of 2024. When we arrived, our hotel room smelled very strongly like smoke and especially ****. I called the front desk and the man working set a maintenance man up to spray some carpet cleaner. However, in an hour the smell was back. The bathroom had the strongest odor and the shower curtain reeked so terribly of smoke, it gave us headaches. I don't understand how the maids didn't say anything or remove the shower curtain and attempt to rid the room of the smell. I just got home and my entire suitcase and all my clothes smell like smoke and ****. Also, on Saturday when I went for breakfast. There was no coffee creamer left and when I asked about it, I was told they were out, and the lady at the front desk seemed very unbothered by it. She was busy scrolling through her personal phone, than caring about the customers needs. I thought the hotel was nice, but a few of the staff were rude/or seemed more concerned with their phones, then performing their jobs. I have terrible allergies and the room smell has lingered with me. I'm glad I didn't have my children with me as the smell would have caused me to leave the hotel and find a room elsewhere, but as I was with an adult, I just dealt with it, but I wish now that I had left and found another hotel.

We always try to stay at Homewood Suites when we travel because we like having a suite with a private bedroom. We’ve been to 10 or 15 Homewood Suites around the country and this is the worst one we have slept in. The Good: - Location. It’s easy to get here from the highway. It’s only about 15 minutes from Salem and an easy drive to Boston. There are a ton of restaurants and stores within 10 minutes’ drive. - The price was fair, considering the location. - Breakfast was typical for a chain hotel and the seating area in the lobby was spacious and clean. - The staff was friendly and helpful. The Bad: - Our room stunk of smoke when we arrived and didn’t get better the 2 nights we were there. There were no rooms for us to change to so we had to stick it out. - The air conditioning was pretty inadequate. Front desk told us there was an issue and the rooms wouldn’t cool below 70 degrees. The room was humid and stuffy. - The compressor to the air conditioner made a loud, screeching / rattling sound whenever it turned off (which thankfully was rare, since the room rarely adequately cooled off). The sound was so loud that it woke me up in the middle of the night about 3 times each night we slept there. - Other maintenance issues: the towel rack fell off the wall first time I used it; the mattress was squeaky and uncomfortable; there was a previous guest’s food wrapper on the floor when we checked in. So all in all, the hotel was fine but our room was bad. If I got a really good deal I might stay here again but I would look elsewhere first.
