“Just one night...”

Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

Everything was perfect; flawless and speedy check-in, incredibly helpful staff, friendly and accommodating waitstaff, and excellent food in the Tavern. I loved the history of the hotel and the fact that you could open the windows, even on the fifth floor. I cannot believe that by booking and paying in advance, we were able to stay in this luxurious hotel... More

“A great stay at a historic hotel in a historic town”

Reviewed 6 May 2013

We stayed at this hotel during a road trip through some of the Atlantic States. We really didn't know anything about it, other than it's location and how old it was. I'm not a big fan of old hotels. I'm more of a modern luxury type of traveller. There's my bias up front. I almost expected another run down hotel... More

I stayed at the Hawthorne Hotel for a conference and found it to be a very nice, even quaint hotel. The rooms were nice and the staff was very, very nice.
