We took a bit of a punt with this, booking it quickly through a tour company after a look at the website. The gamble paid off - good location - longish walk to town but right by Kenmore T stop. Staff very pleasant, room comfy and clean and bathroom great - one tip, ensure you make it clear you want... more

I have stayed at the Buckminster twice in the last 3 weeks. Its location is perfect, a few minutes walk to Fenway and the T stop. The staff are friendly and very helpful. The hotel is old, but clean. I was very happy with both my stays, and think it is a very good value. We had no trouble with... more

It is only a 1 minute walk to Boston's public transportation system and just a short drive to all of Boston's tourist attractions. The... more

This old hotel has been updated and has excellent and accommodating staff. The furnishings are old and rooms and suites oddly shaped, which adds a sort of quirky personality. Not for those who want pristine accommodations but clean and friendly. Good wi-fi. Beds can sometimes be overly firm, but the staff will switch out rooms if they have them. Crowded... more
