Top hotels in Longwood
Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
Disappointing stay overall. The room was not properly cleaned on arrival, with visible hair and residue in multiple areas, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this standard. While I appreciate the refund of one night, the issue significantly impacted my stay and required escalation to resolve.

We had a fantastic time. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The room was large and clean. Easy location to walk around to the places we wanted to and a quick uber for the others. Would highly recommend

Omni Parker House
Quite loud banging noise above Room 1215 well into late night and into early morning Didn't sound like elevator noise more like doors being closed. Great location, Hotel renovations well done.
