The Godfrey Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent

"great loacation and"

citizenM Boston Back Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Hotel was close to shops and restaurants. The interior is super cute with a retro vibe. The room was clean and the bed was decent. Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. The only negative experience was the waitstaff at the bar. Both nights they showed their annoyance when asking for service because it was near closing time."

Hotel AKA Boston Common

10/10 Excellent

"The location of hotel a.k.a. was less than $10 Uber right away or walk for just a few blocks. The freedom trail started just a few blocks away. In fact Sam Adams grave is right across the Street. You can a Cold Sam Adams at the pub next door. We were in town to experience the nor’easter but staff was very helpful even in this weather event."

"Location was great for walking the city. Parking was quite expensive but attached to hotel. The arrangement of the elevators and location of the lobby and pool/workout room was confusing. Room was clean and nice size. Great decor and modern design. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful on visiting the city. Ate at hotel restaurant—excellent."

citizenM Boston North Station

10/10 Excellent

"I love this hotel. I love the style of the rooms and the environment of the lounge area. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. When we were checking out, one of the concierges working the check-in area asked us about our stay, if we had been before, etc. We hadn't purchased a breakfast plan, so she offered us to stay and eat the buffet style breakfast and have coffees on the hotel. The buffet was excellent and the cafe Americano the bartender made for us were perfect. Can't wait to stay at this neat hotel again."

The Newbury Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible hospitality"
