I should have known that it would be great when they handed me a complimentary glass of wine at check in. Not a huge hotel but perfect none the less. Rooms were perfect and front desk service was just as good. Great restaurants and bars for all tastes within a few steps from the lobby. Even though I was traveling... More

I booked in here because I was taking a train out of North Station the next day. The hotel is a short walk away. The location is also reasonably central to, say, Quincy Market or the Union Oyster House. Like Kimpton hotels often are, the decor was trendy but the room was tiny. And, I was across from a building... More

Nice hotel with nice staff. Perfectly clean and good amenities. Room quite small. Good value from Hotwire, not sure about their usual pricing.

Meeting friends in Boston and where to stay? After a lot of research I settled on The Onyx partly because of the reasonable prices and partly because our friends had a good previous experience of the Kimpton brand. The welcome we had was excellent but the room was disappointingly small with a lot of rather large furniture in it. We... More

My wife and I brought our dog on her first road trip to Boston for our daughter's graduation. The hotel is a block from the TD garden and close to the highway. The staff was friendly and very helpful, providing excellent customer service. Particularly nice was how they welcomed dogs to the hotel, with water and treats at the front... More

Then I realized no wonder why, the window of the room was tiny and even that tiny window was mostly covered by the decoration drapes. Asked for an other room but according to the front desk all the double... More

My husband and I had different views on this hotel and he would have given it 4 stars. I gave it 3. It has pros and cons. The main pro is how hard every member of their staff tries. The breakfast attendant (it's a one-woman show being a small boutique hotel) could not have tried harder to please. Ditto for... More

I am currently staying at the Onyx Hotel in Boston and here is why I do not recommend it. First, the hotel is far from the different interesting places of the city, in a district full of homeless people. Second, I was really disappointed to get a room that just smelt and was told there was a light smell in... More

I have stayed that the Onyx in Boston many times, most recently last night. My Favourite hotel in Boston is actually the other Kimpton hotel in Downtown Boston (the Nine Zero), but the Onyx is often significantly cheaper and is still in a central location. While it is a short walk to the centre of the town (Faneuil Hall /... More
