Hospitality management company The Providence Group has been chosen to manage The Emerson Inn by the Sea on Cape Ann in Rockport.
Founded in 1856, the 36-room inn recently completed extensive restorations. The hotel was re-named in 1965 after its most famous guest, Ralph Waldo Emerson, who frequently vacationed at the inn and was said to have found poetic inspiration in the calm, coastal setting.
The inn is a member of the Select Registry of Distinguished Inns on North America and is recognized as a historic hotel of America by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
"It’s a pleasure to be involved with a thriving property with such historical significance. We’re looking forward to a vibrant tourism season," said The Providence Group President Jed C. Heller.
