You will not find a more beautiful, excellent hotel than here. They have exceptional staff, excellent food, amazing accommodations. There is just not enough good to say about the Beauport Hotel. They did not miss any details. The interior is so beautiful and inviting, the food menus are eclectic and there isn’t a bad seat in the house. Recently ran into a self created 😂 snag, and Lauren went above and beyond duty and out of her way to resolve it! Don’t miss the Beauport.

1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar offers a beautiful setting with great views of the New England coastline and Gloucester harbor. Many guests have noted the service to be friendly and accommodating, although some have experienced slow or inattentive service. The food is generally fantastic, with most visitors agreeing that everything on the menu is done to perfection, especially the scallops, clam chowder, and calamari. Recent guests have enjoyed a perfect summer meal on the water, highlighting the reasonable prices and delicious brunch options like chicken and waffles, croissant egg sandwich, and bagel with lox. The attentive staff ensures that customers do not feel rushed and can savor their meals, contributing to a first-class dining experience. However, there are occasional kitchen issues, such as overly salty clams or tough chicken. Some entrees, like tuna steak, can be inedible if not prepared properly. Despite this, the restaurant remains a popular choice for its great atmosphere, beautiful water views, and good drinks and appetizers. Guests often leave satisfied, celebrating special occasions or simply enjoying a pleasant meal by the water.
New reviews highlight a great raw bar featuring ME and Mass oysters and other fresh shellfish. Guests enjoyed dishes like ahi and scallops with fresh veggies. The wine selection is incredible, and service has been praised, especially from staff members. While some diners have experienced minor issues with their entrees, such as cold sides or taste preferences not met, others appreciate the thoughtful gestures from staff during these moments. Overall, 1606 continues to be a lovely and elegant place to dine, making it a recommended spot for both locals and visitors.
