The weekend breakfast was amazing! The staff were very friendly and helpful to all patrons. The room was clean and inviting. We loved staying in one of the many rooms in the main house. Not only is the town quaint, it is only a short drive away from Salem and other parks in the area. Definitely worth the visit and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a unique stay!

Staff was very nice and helpful with late check-in. Room was very clean, big comfortable bed, and lovely view from the balcony. Only complaint is that the walls are very thin and we could hear the people next door very loudly, and could hear outside very loud as well. Overall positive experience and would book again.

Main building is pretty, staff is friendly and rooms clean. However most (if not all) rooms are motel rooms, and the $30 breakfast is not included. So basically you're staying in a motel with a very expensive breakfast facility nearby. As long as you know that ahead of time, you won't be disappointed.

The staff there are amazing; they are very friendly and helpful! When I called regarding late check in, John stayed on the phone to offer great suggestions on scenic alternative routes to also avoid heavy traffic. When we arrived, John provided recommendations for nearby dining for dinner. The room was clean and suited our needs. Moreover, the dining staff at breakfast answered all our questions and provided excellent, attentive service.

This is a beautiful property but there are few rooms in the large bldg, and the east and west wings are not as nice. The bathroom window screen had a tear in it and there was no bathroom fan. Additionally, the creamer in the room was expired and curdled. It was ok but not worth the price.

Property is little bit away the ocean front. But we had a car, so that was no problem. The Don, and his daughter were very friendly and helpful with suggestions and recommendations which were excellent for dinner and breakfast. The room was on the second floor above the entrance; was large with king size bed and private bathroom. Very nice.! What would make it better is if they offered breakfast for their guests. Unfortunately that is not offered at this time; only on the weekends. This is clearly spelled out on their website. So no surprise. If we ever come to Glouster in the future we would definitely use the Castle Manor Inn again. Thank you!
