The hotel itself was grand, old and impressive. I stayed in a compact economy petite room, during the Arctic storm. The room service was extortionate and cost me $50 for a club sandwich, then 48 hours later my finished tray was still outside my room. The heating/air con machine was broken. It made a terrible loud sound all night on my final night. The economy room was as described but I expected to have access to the desk so I would work, but the desk was between the wall and the end of the bed. Considering it is designed to be compact, you’d think that it would have been designed to accommodate the basic features advertised. On the plus side the breakfast was nice, the hotel was clean, and a fantastic location. But I would not recommend a petite room due to poor layout, and I probably won’t be returning to this specific hotel.

My wife and I loved our stay here. It was our first time in Boston, and this hotel is so central to the Freedom Trail and Boston sights. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean, and we really enjoyed the Boston cream pie. It would be nice to come back after COVID so the restaurants/breakfast schedule or more normal.

Had stayed here years before and liked the location so decided to return. The hotel is in need of a bit of TLC, I know it's an old hotel with a bit of history but it needs a bit of colour. The brown wood panelling might be historic but a bright carpet and some tall greenery might make a big difference. The rooms are also a bit jaded. The bar and restaurant are good and staff very nice. Disappointingly on check in we were told our bed was small because we'd booked through a third party so we upgraded at $30 a night, fair enough but absolutely no mention was made by our third party or the desk on check in that quite a few further taxes and charges were to be added including a baffling $20 a day "destination charge"??? Whilst these charges might be outwith the hotels control (I don't know about the destination charge) it certainly made our trip end on a bit of a sour note.

We are sorry that the taxes and destination charge were not apparent to you when you booked through the third party but can assure you (and anyone else reading this) that those charges are presented on all channels prior to completing the booking process. Thanks for your thoughts on updating the hotel....we'll keep them in mind as renovation plans continue to be developed.

I’m torn on my rating for this hotel, so I’ll break down the pros and cons. Let’s start with the good stuff. Hotel is rich with history and it was special staying in a place that was like a living museum. Staff were absolutely wonderful! This hotel still has the doormen who greet you and all were so very kind and helpful. Checkin was great and timely. There are several options for eating, a bar, a dining room and a little cafe/gift shop that sells Starbucks coffee and souvenirs. The location is outstanding and in one of the safest parts of downtown Boston. The hotel literally sits in the heart of most attractions. We did the hop on hop off trolley and it was a 10 min walk to stop #1. There are also several options for eating nearby and the north end ( little italy) was a 15 min walk. Now for the cons. The hotel is advertised a bit differently than what we experienced. The pictures show a very pristine and crisp look, but it was much different. Room did not seem to look like it had been vacuumed, mattresses were a bit soft and bedding had holes. The couch was also to be a pull out and was not. We had to request a roll away, which the promptly brought but overall it took a hour to get everything and situated, not something we wanted to do after a long day and flight. The overall look just seemed dull and drab. There were several spots with missing molding. We also requested late check out prior to stay and mentioned it twice to only be told we had to wait till morning of departure. We had to check out unfortunately which meant we spent some time in the lobby, again housekeeping areas were dusty and in need of some cleaning. Overall, great staff, great location and food options but hotel is a bit lack luster and could use some polishing up. Guess it depends on what matters most to you as a traveler.

This is an historic hotel, in a convenient location. However, the room was very small. Furnishings and decor was old-as in 1980's - style old. The bed was a full-sized bed, and would have been difficult to manage if my husband had accompanied me. I was alone, so the bed size was fine. However, this was not what we believed we were getting when we booked the room. The area around the hotel is a bit sketchy. As in, if you are a female traveling alone, you will be uncomfortable walking around at night. Lots of people just hanging out in front of the T stop and the convenience store. The bar - Last Hurrah - is really nice, however, with excellent drinks and great service. Beantown Pub is a few doors down, and it is a great spot as well. I would not recommend this hotel.

We regret our location did not match your expectations but appreciated reading your positive comments about Last Hurrah. You booked a traditional room which features a full-size bed. Should you change your mind about a future stay, we suggest booking a deluxe room which have queens or kings.

Arrived at 2 AM Friday and had to pull up on the side walk across from the hotel because there was no where to park and valet was not there. Went inside to the front desk checked in and asked about valet. She said she would call for them. Went back to the car got my teenagers out and brought luggage into the lobby (no bellman around). Went back out to car and a man walking up the street yells you can't park there I tell him I'm waiting for valet. He says I will take your car but you can't park there. I ask him where should I sit because there isn't a port cochere. He points down the street! There isn't a spot down the street. I rode around the block when I first arrived because I was looking for the porte cochere for this $57/night valet parking! Same thing happened on Friday evening. Zero spots in front of the hotel I pull on the sidewalk again so my 3 teenage girls (2 of which had been playing volleyball ALL day) could go inside. This time the bellman was there. I told him I would like to valet he tells me you can't sit your car there and tells me to park down the street. Saturday night after a long day of volleyball I pull up let the kids out and found a spot all the down the block. Went inside where the valet attendant was (same guy from 2 AM Friday) and told him my car was WAAAAAAY down the street near the next intersection. In all my travels valet parking has been a very convenient and pleasant experience where I would pull up to the hotel, have my door opened and valet attendant would park my car. Sometimes I would see them pull it to the side if it is busy. I have NEVER been to a hotel where I had to park my own car and walk a block for my car to be valet parked! Especially not for $57/night. I was looking forward to the whole Omni "experience" for myself and the kids but it was the most frustrating and disappointing stay we have ever had anywhere. Not only was valet bad but only 2 working elevators! We opted for the steps several times after waiting 10 to 15 minutes because every elevator that stopped was full! The rooms were tiny which I understand due to the age of the hotel. However, the rusty bathroom shelf/mirror and bath tub with chipped paint was giving budget motel vibes. The staff at the front desk was very pleasant at check out and the location of the hotel was great which is the only reason I selected 2 stars.

Please accept our apologies for the multiple issues you experienced with our valet parking operation over this past weekend. The huge volume of cars associated with the volleyball group (of which you were a part) was unexpected, and our team did their best to accommodate the unusual flow of arrivals. We have hosted this group for years and never had this issue. Next year, we will be better prepared for this group! Thank you for your patience and alerting us to your aberrant experience.

The hotel is in a great location in the center of downtown Boston. Near eating spots, shopping and tourist attractions. Valet parking at the hotel is $57/night but I was able to find a parking garage nearby for $34/night. Other than the parking issue the hotel was pretty good with a gym and gift store, . It’s an old building and the room was adequate with two small ”queen” sized beds and a very small shower. I had a very nice three night stay at this hotel.

Thank you for staying with us and posting your comments, it's appreciated. Allow us to mention that overnight valet parking rates at downtown Boston hotels are as much as $68 per night....we believe our rate to be fair and reasonable given the service it provides our guests. As you point out, self-parking options are also available in the area.

We booked a weekend in Boston on Hotels.com. We booked a raste of $138 per night, a real good deal. We enjoyed our stay. Our only complaint about the hotel was the bed was way too soft. We were very surprised when we got the bill and saw a room rate of $149 per night. It is only a $11 dollar difference, but not in my favor. When booking your stay, BEWARE of what you might actually be charged. When I asked at the desk, they said this is what Hotels.com sent them as a rate. Shame on you Hotels.com.

We understand the historic nature of our hotel does not appeal to all travelers and suggest that if having more space is important to you, book an executive room or suite for your next stay….they are larger and offer the same location and service levels that make our hotel a great choice when visiting Boston.
