Very nice hotel and good location. The noise from the hallway was too much!! You could hear everything. Told the front desk about this upon check out and the response was "Yeah, the weddings." So I guess their customer service could be better as well. It was not just loud during the evening hours. Anytime there were people in the... More

The harbor side location is very convenient. However the hotel is spread out among multiple buildings making it difficult if traveling with friends. the restaurant was average but has a nice view. The room was adequate. The extra fees however added to an overall rating of average at best. The parking is $42 nightly, internet is $15. We didn't use... More

This hotel is amazing. Spacious rooms, attention to detail and friendly service. The hotel is set up in a way that you can see the water from any of it's rooms. The employees are all eager to help with any reservations or sightseeing ideas you may need.

I was very pleasantly priced to find this treasure by the harbour! I've stayed in other places in Boston/Cambridge, but this is definitely my favourite. Service is attentive, the room was especially nice with an incredible view of the harbour. It was also in a great location--a short walking distance to the Aquarium and Old North Church (both not to... More

Nice rooms, clean and updated. Courteous service, and great location. BUT, $15 for internet and $50 for parking at a $500 a night hotel? Plus they charge you to use the business center computer to print out your boarding pass? I get more for my money at a Holiday Inn! It just adds insult to injury, and you certainly don't... More

I Live in Massachusetts and am embarrassed to admit I never had the opportunity to stay at a hotel in Boston- mostly because I lived so close and the expense of it all. Well, my boyfriend and I were invited to a night wedding last week and decided to stay in the city that night. WOW- a friend of his... More

A very modern, clean and nice hotel, right on the waterfront. Its is convenient for the North end, but not so much downtown. Parking rates were crazy as usual, but we found a space on the road nearby and walked 5 mins. Our impression of the hotel was heightened by the fact we got an upgrade to a deluxe room.... More

We chose this venue because it is right on the waterfront, right behind the North End and small enough to feel like a home away from home and big enough to accommodate our wedding of 130 ppl. This venue is unique and very classy without being overstated or too fancy. Our contact was Ashley Lamy, who was incredible. She walked... More

In a word, disappointing - I would have told the staff had anyone asked. I was with a group of 12 from various cities yet my room wasn't held. They offered an upgrade for a fee, and after I objected, they located me into the Gold concierge building. The room was small, smaller than my fellow associates in other buildings,... More
