Airport Exit. As you are exiting the airport, you want to follow the
signs for Route 1A North (Revere/ Lynn).
Short

Follow Route 1A for 16 miles to the hotel. The hotel is a six story
brick building with green awnings and flower boxes, on the right side
of the road. If you see signs for the Peabody Essex Museum, follow
those.
Detailed Directions:
Follow signs for Route 1A North - watch carefully for the signs. You
will go through several small towns, as Route 1A is the coastal road
out of Boston. Within a few miles of the airport you will come to two
small rotaries - whenever you hit these - stay in the right lane for
Route 1A north. Once you enter Lynn, you will pass several car
dealerships, Walmart, Building 19, Ferguson
Enterprises.
Look for
NorthShore Community College. Just before the college, Route 1A takes
a LEFT TURN, and then an immediate RIGHT TURN. Again, you are going
through small towns, watch for the signs at intersections.
** In
Swampscott, you will pass Whole Foods grocery store on your right,
then a liquor store, Trader Joe’s, Panera Bread and CVS. This is
Vinnin Square Marketplace.
Once you
pass the Entering Salem sign, you will quickly come upon
Salem State College South Campus on your left. At the
Sub Shop, bear right - staying on Route 1A. You will then pass
the Central Campus Parking on the right. You then see Salem State's
main campus on your right - this is identified by the light brick
buildings.
At the
light in front of the college, you will turn LEFT (still Route 1A).
This is Lafayette Street - also Route 114 West. Keep going on
Lafayette Street until you arrive at the Fire Station, which will be
across the street; turn RIGHT (onto New Derby Street) - still route 1A
North. You will pass a Hess gas station, and a number of businesses.
At the next four-way stop intersection, turn LEFT. This is still
Route 1A North (Hawthorne Blvd). The Hotel is one block up on the
right. You can pull up in front of the hotel to unload your baggage.
Parking is the right turn at the light before the hotel, or the corner
right after the hotel.
The hotel
is a six story brick building with green awnings and flower boxes, on
the right side of the road.
If you lose
your way, you can call us at 978-744-4080 and tell us about where you
are, and some landmarks and street names, and we should be able to get
you going in the correct direction.
