Amazing hotel! Nice rooms and COMFY bed! Could use some free wifi though.... It also took 20 mins to get hot water for the shower (I'd still stay here again). **if you are coming from the Logan International Airport ask how to take the water taxi to this hotel. We took a free shuttle from the airport to the water... More

We had 3 fantastic nights at the Fairmont and travelling with an 11 year old, space is often an issue for us. Chris at the front desk generously upgraded us to a one bedroom suite and it was huge. The rooms are modern, clean, spacious. Our son called it the man cave. Some bonuses: - An easy 7 minute walk... More

This was our first stay in the Boston harbor area. Previously we have stayed in the Back Bay area, but wanted to try something new.

I have read some mixed reviews of the Fairmont Gold. The ones who gave it a negative review must have stayed at a different property or... More

I have stayed at this Fairmont many times in the past few years, and this time I was just not as happy with the service, and in some cases the value. I had a really hard time communicating with reservations via email. It took a long time to get any answers and when I received partial answers they came with... More

Very disappointed with the lack of food options at this hotel. One option, and very expensive. No place in hotel for any type of vending, unless you used the mini bar. I don't trust mini bars!!! Every high end hotel I have been to has vending options, not here. Rooms were fine, although housekeeping never replenished soap, shampoo, etc., during... More
