Margot WitJuly 25, 2013This is the best hotel I've ever been. Clean, comfortable, awesome design and personnel is very friendly and helpful. We felt really zen in this place. :) I would definitely recommend this hotel.
Chris PolloneJanuary 5, 2016Impeccable service. Staff heard it was my wife's birthday & sent up strawberries, champagne & a card signed by the whole staff. Jess & Sammy are great. Stay here!
Nicole BernierFebruary 14, 2014The staff here was so great. Nymeria was afraid on the elevator at first and they were very patient. She got snacks whenever she went to the lobby. Close to the Common and great rooms. Will return

Rachel MercerMay 19, 2014Best. Pillows. Ever. Try To request a room in the corner (eg 1704, 1604) to get wraparound windows and views of the State House, Capitol Building, and Common.
RexOctober 29, 2017Great location right next to Boston Commons. Rooms are on the dark side, and the beds are comfortable.
Kara OvercasherNovember 3, 2012Our stay has been absolutely amazing!! So kind and very accommodating!! Sad i didn't bring my puppy along!! Thank you very much keep up the amazing service!- GemmaSeptember 18, 2018Such a gorgeous hotel. Beautiful deco, very stylish. Wine hour at 5pm in the lounge is great.
The rooms are wonderfully comfortable. It's become my ONLY hotel in Boston for working. The glass of wine when I arrive after a long day is much welcomed!
The customer service at this hotel is impeccable. They spoil me every time I stay here with cookies, wine and handwritten notes.
Kirsten ElinDecember 22, 2013There was a slight problem upon check in with room and without even having to complain they upgraded us to two connecting rooms, the second free of charge, instead of one. Awesome hotel.
Lesley KJanuary 20, 2014Bikes are available to use which would be great for a summer ride along the water.
Irene BrittJuly 22, 2019Used to love this place and stayed several times a year. After the renovation, it has become quite dark and edgy. May try it again, but not sure.
