Addison Choate

$200-350/ natt

Boka detta om You want a stylish, adults-oriented boutique escape in Rockport, MA (not Indiana) that feels more like a wealthy friend's guest house than a hotel.

Varför människor älskar det

  • Immaculate 'coastal eclectic' design that ditches the dusty doilies of typical B&Bs
  • Dead-center location: 5-minute walk to Front Beach, Shalin Liu Performance Center, and Bearskin Neck
  • Contactless, text-based service that feels modern and unobtrusive

Snabb Överblick: It's a stunning historic renovation with steep stairs and no elevator, and despite what old reviews say, breakfast is no longer served.

Recenserat av @explorewithsofi_I stayed here for a weekend and the 'Monster Free' card under the bed completely won me over. The design is so colorful and fun, and walking to Bearskin Neck took just ten minutes. It’s the perfect mix of modern style and cozy New England charm.

The hype

Travelers universally praise the 'spotless' cleanliness and the 'Marshall' (the owner) hospitality, but many are surprised by the lack of food service.

Reality check

The 'steep stairs' to the 3rd floor are a frequent reality check for guests with heavy bags or mobility issues.

  • You appreciate 'Beekman 1802' toiletries and Dyson-level cleanliness over a breakfast buffet
  • You want a quiet, romantic base for exploring Cape Ann without the chaos of kids running around
  • You prefer texting the owner for recommendations rather than standing at a front desk

Renlighet & Underhåll

9.5
  • Housekeeping: Immaculate. Reviews consistently use words like 'spotless' and 'pristine'.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling marble bathrooms with no signs of mold or grout issues.
  • Maintenance: Recently renovated (2019), so paint, fixtures, and furniture are in top-tier condition.
  • Linens & towels: Fresh, high-quality linens and plush towels; no 'worn' feel here.
  • Odors & scents: Fresh, often scented with essential oils (lavender/eucalyptus) from in-room diffusers.

Hi Marshall, we're booking for [Dates]. If available, we'd love to request 'Wide Berth' to avoid the stairs, OR 'The Crow's Nest' for the views. We understand breakfast isn't served and are excited to try local spots.

FAQ & Dolda tips

Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.

Is breakfast included?

No. Despite older reviews mentioning a lovely spread, the hotel stopped serving breakfast in 2024/2025.

Is there an elevator?

No. This is a historic 1851 home. You must be able to climb stairs for most rooms.

Can I bring my dog?

No. The hotel has a strict no-pets policy.

Is it open in winter?

Yes, it's open year-round. Winter is quiet and 'magical' with lower rates.

How is the parking?

Excellent. Free, off-street private parking is included for every room.

Is there AC?

Yes, all rooms have air conditioning (essential for humid MA summers).


Insider-tips

  • Ask about the 'Retro Gaming Package' — they have a Nintendo Switch with classic games like Mario Kart available for guests.

  • The 'Dog Watch Suite' has a full kitchen, making it the only real option for self-catering.

  • Text the owner (Marshall) for dinner reservations; he has pull with local spots like Feather & Wedge.

5 saker du bör veta innan du åker

  • 💡The 'steep stairs' are genuinely steep — think 19th-century ship ladder vibes for the top floor.

  • 💡There is no front desk staff waiting for you; it's entirely self-check-in via code.

  • 💡The walls are thick (lath and plaster), so it's quieter than modern drywall hotels.

  • 💡You are literally 4 minutes from Front Beach — the location is deceptively central.

  • 💡The 'no breakfast' policy catches many repeat guests off guard who remember the old days.
