Beauport Hotel Gloucester, hotel in Gloucester

Offering a seasonal rooftop pool and bar, and sun terrace, Beauport Hotel Gloucester is located in Gloucester, MA, overlooking Gloucester Harbor, Pavilion Beach and the Atlantic Ocean.

The location was unbeatable. We got an oceanfront view with the balcony so it was nice to be able to wake up to the waves and sitting outside albeit a bit cold in April. It was also very close to several restaurants on Main St. Would definitely do another staycation here!

Harborview Inn, hotel in Gloucester

This Gloucester bed and breakfast is directly across from the harbor and features uniquely styled rooms, each with a private bathroom. Various shops and restaurants are within a 10-minute walk.

John was extremely attentive and friendly. We felt like we were staying at the home of a family member. A charming bed and breakfast with a beautiful view, can’t wait to come back in the summer. We also got to enjoy a free continental breakfast with a local, who also made us feel at home and spoke about so many wonderful things in town to do. 10/10!

CbytheSea - Ocean View Penthouse, hotel in Gloucester

CbytheSea - Ocean View Penthouse is a recently renovated apartment in Gloucester, near Pavilion Beach. Both free Wifi and parking on-site are accessible at the apartment free of charge.

The lighting and location were both magnificent. When I booked, I told them I was needing to use the kitchen to feed four people. I wasn’t going to cook. I brought food with me. Soups and stews. I couldn’t heat them in one batch. There was one small pot and three soup spoons and three bowls. Not the biggest deal. But disappointing since I asked specifically. The shower backed up to my ankles. It would have been deeper , but the hot water lasted ran out quickly. This location was a splurge. I was the only one sleeping there. My son lives locally in a small apt. I could have stayed in a high end hotel, but wanted to have a place to gather with my sons. I specified that. After not having hot water, I called the number they left. They were so gracious and upset that both those things happened. The cleaning service ( or management group) was held responsible and I was promised a 20% refund which I never received. It’s been 7 weeks. I tried contacting owners, they no longer answer. Gloucester is pure magic. The location is great. This was a major disappointment. Especially having booked accommodations way out of my price range. I have never written a negative review before. It pains me to write this one b/c I was so certain the owners would do the right thing and make sure that booking.com did the same. I will post an update if I finally get my 20%.

    We went to Gloucester to go to an exhibit at the Cape Anne Museum. The only problem with Gloucester in general is that all parking is metered and limited to 2 hours within any given zone. This means it is impossible to really enjoy the downtown. We had wanted to go to the museum and then wander around the town and shops. Two hours is not enough time for that. And we were in the off season when, at least, you could find parking. It must be awful in the summer. Too bad.

    Gloucester is located in one of the most historic and picturesque areas north of Boston. Rockport and the Cape Ann area are just a few easy miles from Gloucester. I highly recommend a 2-3 night stay in Gloucester.

    Never found downtown Gloucester but did eat at some fabulous places in the town and stopped in cute nearby Rockport. Lots of beautiful and clean beaches to choose from. Better than Cape Cod! We ate at a little diner down the road and at the fantastic Seaport Grill. Worth every penny. Just order less than you want. Portions are gigantic.

    Gloucester is a quaint little beautiful town. However, everything closes very early with short hours of operation. Be prepared to eat early or may not find places open. Bookings for tours were sold out for the only day we were available. Will book ahead next time.

    Exceptionally clean room! Accommodations were standard but room was larger than normal and comfortable. There was also seating on the porch outside every room. Heated pool cleaned every day. Great location...short drive to Gloucester city center. Offered limited continental breakfast. Grocery store and drugstore within walking distance. Staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

    It was a motel style property, the rooms having lovely views across to Good Harbour Beach and the sea. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was continental style but sufficient. Good parking area and easy access to Gloucester and Rockport etc. The beach is a short walk. The pool is heated and a reasonable size with sun beds and shades.

    everything. From attentive staff (the manager Bob saw us on the deck and came out to offer us binoculars) to small details (blankets to grab when sitting by the fire pit when brisk) to lovely facilities to the BEST food on our entire coastal trip (try the mussel appetizer - amazing). we are already planning our return. Love this hotel!!!

    The family that hosted us was delightful. Friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. The apartment is a charming hideaway at the top of the house, well appointed very clean and very comfortable. The house is situated close to everything in the center of Gloucester and at the same time it is quiet and provides easy parking.
