This is by far the best bed & breakfast I have ever stayed at! The owners are wonderful and can not do enough to make you feel at home. The restaurant staff is very professional, but not pretentious. The scenery from the hotel is excellent and the food was outstanding. If your looking for a great place to stay without... More

I lived in Gloucester for 20 years so visit friends often. Never went to this inn before. I received a coupon type offer for this inn via email (from an outside agency). Unfortunately, my husband and I suffered a devastating circumstance which precluded our scheduled stay. I called and shared my story. The person on the other end of the... More

I am a travel agent and I would highly recommend this beautiful inn. It is very easy to get to and also easy to access the harbor and downtown area. My boyfriend and I went to get away for a night in November. It was cold out but the Inn had plenty of warmth. The staff treats you like family.... More

We came over from Nashua, NH and just stayed in late November at Castle Manor Inn for our 35th Anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed being there. The Inn's new owners Don and Laura have just renovated this beautiful Victorian Inn at historical Gloucester, Mass. The location and atmosphere there makes the Inn a wonderful place to relax, get away from it... More

Recently I had the need to stay in Gloucester on business during a traditional Nor’easter storm. I had no reservations and called upon the Castle Manor Inn for a walk in rate. As I darted in from the heavy wind and rain, I was greeted warmly by the staff and was offered a quick tour of the mansion’s common areas.... More

We stayed one night for an on-site mid-September wedding. After a 3-hour drive from home, we arrived with little time to spare. The "front desk" staffer sped up the check-in process so we would have enough time to change clothes before the ceremony. The main building is a beautiful Victorian which was occupied by the bride and groom and their... More

We stayed here for two nights while attending a wedding in Ipswich. We stayed in the Turret Tower which is a really nice, big room. FYI the room is immediately adjacent to the honeymoon suite, which is potentially awkward if you happen to know the bride and groom occupying it, as we did. (Although we never heard or saw them,...

This place is a find. We recommend the Daring Adventure room where we stayed. Great view, comfortable bed. The cozy bar was fun. The food was spectacular. We ordered their stuffed haddock dish and were not disappointed. Their breakfasts are also different and spectacular. I had their Bohemian breakfast which consisted of poached eggs on red cabbage with homemade sausage.... More
