Cape Ann Motor Inn, hotel in Gloucester

Located on the Long Beach in Gloucester, this property offers rooms with views of the ocean. Guests can see the lighthouse on Thacher Island from the beach.

The location of this hotel is so perfect! Right on the ocean, it was beautiful to wake up and sit on the patio and watch the surfers and listen to the ocean. The hotel is very cozy and gives older costal colonial vibes. I felt like I was staying at my grandparents summer beach house. The staff was so nice, parking was easy, and it’s a close drive to Salem and Rockport where you can explore cute little shops and restaurants. The only thing I wasn’t expecting is that you don’t have a private balcony, it’s just open to anyone to walk by. I was hoping to sleep with the patio door open and listen to the ocean at night, but anyone could walk by your patio door. Also, the walls are thin, so you can hear the neighbors or guests outside, but it was pretty quiet while we were there, even though it seemed there where a lot of visitors staying at the hotel. It’s nothing fancy, but it was clean and comfy, and really fit the old Massachusetts costal vibes we were hoping for. It met all of my expectations and we really enjoyed our stay!

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.

    Quiet, soul-nourishing stay with an incredible view and a beautiful beach to stroll up and down. Access the beach directly from the balcony of the room. Pets welcome. There were many guests with dogs and many locals bring their dogs to the beach. View of the sea, the rocks and the famous two lighthouses is unbeatable. Beds were very comfortable, heating worked great. They provide chairs on the balcony for you to just sit and soak up the view. Though it's technically a motel, it felt like 3-star hotel comfort with a 5-star hotel location.

    Beautiful property in a perfect location. We were able to park the car for free, and then walk to the train station and all around Gloucester. The hosts are wonderful- friendly, thoughtful, and responsive without being overbearing. Very comfortable accommodations and breakfast items, snacks, water, coffee, and tea available all hours. Cannot thank Susan enough for the dinner recommendations as well! Will definitely return if we are in the area!

    This is a fine, traditional beach hotel. Its location could not be much better--about four minutes from a Dunkin, three from a supermarket, and five from a lovely beach. Gloucester is a lovely tourist location, with interesting spots to visit, fun shopping, and a time-honored seaside location. The hotel pool is plenty big for a good exercise dip and is kept clean and well supplies with towels.

    Wonderful property. Attention to every detail both in how well the apartment was fitted out—the most comprehensive array of kitchen appliances and tools—and to the aesthetics of the wall hangings, furnishings, etc. A great place to come back to and just relax after a busy day in Gloucester and Salem. Host was very responsive.

    The views are wonderful and the property is located close to beach and downtown Gloucester. Everyone at the hotel was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were quiet, we didn’t hear anything! We had a small patio outside the room, which was the perfect spot to relax. Definitely recommend and hope to return here soon.

    Felt very comfortable as soon as we arrived after a long journey. Lovely staff, very clean and good facilities. On the edge of town for Gloucester and close to the lovely town of Rockport. Had two great meals at Charlies (which you can walk to) and Lobstaland.

    customer service and proximity to where we wanted to be and what we wanted to do. The hotel IS in the middle of a remodel and they are trying hard to meet everyone's needs. We just happened to get a room that hadn't seen some new love yet.
