Addison Choate is definitely the place to stay in Rockport. Especially if you’re looking to support a small business and want a more authentic, intimate and coastal experience. Aside from the thoughtful touches around the property, the historic charm, the modern decor, the comfortable rooms and the proximity to downtown, the hospitality is truly what makes this place shine. The owner, Marshall, was so kind, considerate and helpful during our trip. We made personal connections. And were able to have a better trip because of our accommodations, suggestions and insight on the town of Rockport.

We definitely had a great stay and a very pleasant experience throughout the entire weekend. 

We loved the room we stayed in the most. The Crow’s Nest 3rd floor room was spacious, functional, and unique in shape and design. It allowed me to capture great content as a hotel blogger with its natural light and dynamic throughout the space. I also absolutely loved the diffusers available in every room of the hotel. It offers such a mindful and relaxing atmosphere with scents that soothe your mind and body. An absolute must for vacation if you ask me!

While I typically prefer a more interesting and filling breakfast in the morning, I was totally satisfied and happy with the delicious fruit, yogurt and granola offered. As well as the bagels and croissants. We had a pretty packed schedule during our stay. And it made for a very convenient meal on the go. 

Overall, we loved this hotel and surrounding area. We stayed at the hotel in April during a warm spring weekend and were able to watch the sunset over the harbor from our window with snacks and champagne in hand. Just enjoying life and admiring one of my favorite parts of Massachusetts. The iconic north shore. I highly recommend pairing this experience with Addison Choate, if you want to do it like the locals do.
