I was in Boston for the weekend on business - a trade fair at the Hynes Center right across the street. I had a huge, corner room in which I could have had a cocktail party for more than 20 people, had I been so inclined! I'm a Hilton Silver Honors member, but this particular hotel does not have an Executive floor with the usual perks. However, the woman who checked me in quietly gave a tickets for breakfast in the "special" breakfast room, just to the side of the main dining-room; the buffet breakfasts were excellent. I also had a very good dinner there on the Friday night that I checked in; the waiter was rather overwhelmed as there was a huge loud crowd at the bar; however, when that crowd dissipated and more wait staff was brought in, I was served pleasantly and with good humour. In addition, the food was very, very good!

Stayed one night for a girls night in Boston. Around $200 for the night total. Great, safe location with many attractions within walking distance. Lots of restaurants close by. Hotel itself was clean and everyone was very friendly. Linens and toiletries were very nice and bathroom is bright and clean. Parking is expensive but that is to be expected. Loved that Starbucks was downstairs in the lobby. We also enjoyed the coffee in the room. There was some street noise from the room so if you are a light sleeper this may be a problem, but we were ok with it. Everyone at this hotel was very friendly and helpful!

This was a 2nd visit in about 14 months. We are Hilton Gold and again we were upgraded to one of the panoramic rooms. On our last visit it was raining so the view was wasted; this time we got to enjoy the view even though we weren't in the room that much. It seems people can get this hotel for a wide range of prices, but for us it is reasonable (low end $$) and a great location. The two best things about this hotel are the staff; everyone is pleasant and helpful. And the shower, we don't know if the all the showers in the hotel have the same water pressure and double shower heads but I would book here again just for shower :-). The cons that others have mention about internet speed - yes it is inconsistent and slow but this is common in many hotels; and the cable/dish TV had a picture stuttering issue (didn't report because non-issue for us but probably should have because it may be correctable).

Stayed in November for a conference. Excellent reception staff and a very good room for conference rate of $179. Nice beds and linens. Close to Boylston and Newbury Streets for great walking to restaurants and shops.

I recommend Abe & Louie's for filet mignon and Jasper White's Summer Shack for the pan roasted lobster. Both in easy walking distance.

Hard to beat at the price.
