Absolutely top-notch! We stayed at the Envoy for two nights before flying to London. The hotel sets the bar for customer service. Friendly service at check-in and check-out and the dinner we had at the restaurant was spectacular. Our server was wonderful, friendly and although shy at first we asked her some questions and she was very helpful. You can tell the hotel is well managed with a team effort in place of guest satisfaction. This was a wonderful stay. Our room was comfortable, well equipped and we are staying there again on our way back from London.

The hotel is in a great location. We had view of the seaport which was amazing throughout our stay. The main reason why this isnt a 5 star review is because of the rooftop terrace. We wish there was an area for hotel guest only also Para Maria restaurant was a massive dissapointment!. Service was at best nonexistent!! We will be back to stay at the hotel only ..def not the restaurant or bar aspect.

I stayed for a business trip. The banging noise from the AC unit in the wall was so loud, I got startled from my sleep three or four times. The hallway smelled of chemicals off the elevator and the curtains did not close properly— a challenging stay in a hotel I once loved.

We recently spent 5 days at the Envoy and it was amazing to say the least. The hotel and rooms are clean and aesthetically pleasing. The hotel restaurant is delicious. And most importantly, the service is on top of their game. Throughout our stay, Donia was there to assist with anything we needed on property and off property. She’d take the time to explain and interact with us. She truly is a gem and because of her I’d return to the property! I will definitely be back and will tell anyone I know going to Boston to stay at this location.

Overall very nice good hotel with great service. I enjoyed the location as it was within walking distance from many shops. The hotel itself is modern, clean and have interesting room themes. If anything, when a guest checks in, please pay attention and don't let them stand around.

Had the pleasure of staying at The Envoy for a weekend. Highlights were the central location - easy to walk or bike anywhere in central Boston and the Seaport District; the free bike rentals (took them out for a day to visit the JFK Presidential Library and some sights downtown; the unique design of the room including the lighting, and the in room coffee - great for a nice espresso in the morning. Unfortunately didn’t have a chance to check out the rooftop lounge or the restaurant but they looked awesome. Would definitely return!

So much wrong with this place. Terrible stay. 1) Before arrival I received an email suggesting I check-in with the app. During that process it asks if you want your room serviced during the stay. I said NO... but clearly their systems arent communicating becuase my room was serviced anyway and my things were moved all over the place. This kind of intrusion is not acceptable for a $500+ per night hotel. Also no digital room key so I had to checkin in person anyway. What is the point of the stupid online checkin? 2) The room is small, low quality "modern quirky" furnishings, shower and sink are separated from room by a glass divider, so no privacy for couples if you want that. Also no ice machines, or fridge, or minibar. "We're not a traditional hotel" they'll tell you at checkin. 3) The lighting/light switches are just ridiculous. 2 days in I still cant figure it out. The only light you can access from the bed is a single LED reading light. 4) The shower goes from freezing to boiling. Almost impossible to figure out a normal temperature. I took two scalding showers because I couldn't get it right. 5) Plug near the desk is awkwardly behind the desk itself. Terrible setup if you want to charge your computer at the desk. 6) Rooftop bar was closed. Apparently that's the best part about this place. 7) Rooms face a busy street, and hotel is only 6 stories high. I'm on fifth floor and its waaay louder than acceptable. 8) There is a robe on the shower door. But it absorbs zero water. It's made of nylon or someting, feels kinda like sweatshirt material but it literally repels water. Maybe its not designed to be a bath robe, but then why hang it on the shower door? 9) Cheapest toilet paper I've witnessed in anything other than a motel. But the location is good. I just cant believe how bad the experience was for the price. Long story short, avoid like the plague. Stay at the Intercontinental across bridge.…

My wife and I spent a night here in Boston before flying out the next day back home. I booked this hotel for its great location and hoping that as an Autograph collection hotel, it would exceed my expectations. To say the very least, it did not. Let's start with the fact that the hotel is all windows... you can see through... from the outside. The windows aren't tinted. So anytime you're in the room and someone is walking over the Eveyln Moakley Bridge, they can see RIGHT IN YOUR ROOM! This includes the large windows in your bathroom. Yes, your bathroom... near the toilet. So, unless you enjoy having strangers watch you as you use the facilities, keep your curtains closed. I was given an "upgrade" to a corner room with a view of the water. That corner room overlooked The Barking Crab and Seaport Blvd. At night, I was woken up by constant traffic on the road, and what sounded like trash being emptied in a dumpster several times throughout the night. If that was an upgrade, I can't imagine what a standard room would've been. The bed was average. Again, for an Autograph collection I would've expected better. Parking across the street isn't affiliated with the hotel, which is a little unnerving but not enough to avoid parking there if you need to. The location is really the one thing this hotel has going for it, but there are MANY other great locations in Boston to choose from. When you check in, the first thing the front desk tells you is that they're not a "traditional hotel." This means there is no small refrigerator in your room, and there are a few other amenities the hotel doesn't offer. I don't believe there was a lounge, but since Covid, so few of these are actually open anymore anyway. If you prefer these amenities, this is is not the hotel for you. Overall, I would not recommend staying at this hotel due to the overall weird nature of its bathrooms, un-tinted windows, and for just how average it was. Sure it may look hip and cool with the bike as the TV stand, but that's not enough to compensate for all the other draw-backs a hotel at this price point should have. If you do stay here, avoid staying in any of the rooms on the hotel's South end (I think rooms 27-30) as they are adjacent to the Seaport Blvd / Evelyn Moakley Bridge foot and car traffic. Your stay will be much more peaceful on the other side of the hotel... or at a different hotel entirely.…

Where to start.. we got a free upgrade, checked in early, and free presecco. The hotel was immaculate. The water front location is amazing with a kids park across the street. Amazing view from the room. Everything was very modern and unique both inside and outside the room. Parking across the street was $42 for 24 hours which is cheaper then most hotel parking. This may be the only hotel in all of Boston that doesn’t charge you a “resort fee” what a breath of fresh air that was. When I called the front desk to get ice or some more coffee pods, they pick up the very first ring and were knocking at my door in three minutes or less. The windows crack open for fresh air. The rooftop bar music was loud when the window was open but when I shut it, the room was completely sound proof. Amazing. I saw another reviewer say they couldn’t control the room temperature. While possibly true for their room, the room I stayed in we had control and it was good. They had the coolest bathroom door I have ever saw.…

We are from the Suburbs of Boston and every now and again love to stay in the city. We have stayed in many Boston hotels and this was a very memorable time - the perfect refresher not too far from home! The Seaport area was on our list of neighborhoods to try out and the location of The Envoy is perfect. Parking is not included but we parked directly across Sleeper Street in the parking garage. Easy. We booked a Large King Room/Harbourfront. 3rd floor - at night you are nestled-in overlooking the city lights of the tall buildings around the hotel. Very pretty. The room is simple in design (scandinavian) but so very thoughtful. The bed is super comfortable. Sheets and pillows are perfect. The bathroom is well designed with high end finishes. Nice amenities. TV was large. Great coffee maker in the room (illy). Coffee is available in the lobby each morning. Wine/bubbly in the lobby at dusk. All this was great - but what I wanted to point out is the STAFF! Stupendous. THIS is what hospitality is supposed to be and unfortunately has been forgotten by so many establishments. We appreciate genuine service the most! From the front desk and bell staff, housekeeping, to the restaurant staff - all incredible. HUGE shout out to them. They are all gems. I hope I don't get their names incorrect but I wanted to recognize them for their graciousness and professionalism. Mandler, Luchi, Junior and Sebastian!! Awesome humans! YOU made our quick trip GREAT! The in-house restaurant Para Maria is fantastic. A hidden gem in my opinion. We had friends join us for dinner and we were all blown away by the hospitality and wonderful Latin food. Sebastian was our server and he was so knowledgeable and gracious. Thank you! We will be back!…
