“Great location, style and service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 26, 2012

Stylish - that sums up my review, but I have to write a few more words. Doormen greet you, receptionists very helpful (and stylish), lobby looks like a fashionable nightspot (great for me), art and design touches everywhere (as with all W hotels), rooms well designed and stylish. Friends always ask to me "steal" Bliss products, I believe women love them.

The location is a 5 minute walk to the start of the Freedom trail.

“Fantastic W Right off the Common”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

I have stayed at this W a few times, and I am always pleased to go back. The rooms are comfortable and of the quality you would expect at a pricey W. The lobby bar generally has a good scene and attentive bartenders. Both in room breakfast and restaurant breakfasts are very nice and fairly reasonable. My only gripe is that my last stay was on the fifth floor, where as a Platinum SPG guest I was looking out over a back roof and A/C units... I would have expected a higher floor as a preferred guest...

“Cant wait..”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 20, 2012

I have not even been here yet, but just got off the phone with Jenny on the whatever/whenever phone line. She was truly a pleasure to speak with, she helped clean up my very messed up reservations with ease. After that when I asked for the concierge who was busy with an onsite guest, she did a great job informing me about the local area, transportation and dinning options. We are looking forward to our last minute pre 25TH anniversary at the W for our first visit to Boston.

“Nice hotel - Choose your floor”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 19, 2012

I stayed at the W Boston this week. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the service was good. The only issue I raise is the noise from the street. I was on the 4th floor and the noise was a significant factor. Ask for a room higher up and it may be better.

Thanks for the positive review, George. You make a fair point - the higher floors do offer better views and less street noise. See you again soon.

“Great stay!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 17, 2012

I stay at Starwood Hotels often and have stayed at several W Hotels over the last several years. I must say that the W in Boston is fantastic, clean rooms, excellent service and a great atmosphere. There is a nice bar that gets pretty full, with fun people visiting or stopping by after work. There is also a club that is next door, but I didnt get a chance to check it out.

The hotel is well located and a short taxi to the airport, or the convention center and walking distance to shopping or sight seeing.
