Staying at the Boston Harbor Hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the waterfront with stunning views of the harbor that make every morning feel special. The room itself was spacious and well-designed, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. Breakfast was served à la carte, which I appreciated—it gave me flexibility in choosing what I wanted, though it wasn’t overly elaborate. My only minor hiccup came on the final night when the door lock malfunctioned, causing a bit of a delay getting back to the airport. Thankfully, the hotel responded quickly, helped me switch rooms, and kept me informed throughout. It’s a small bump in an otherwise perfect experience. Overall, this place offers incredible value, especially with the amazing views and convenient access to everything Boston has to offer.

I stayed at The Colonnade Hotel in Boston for four nights while attending the Boston Career Forum, and it was an excellent choice. Every day, my room was spotlessly clean, and I never heard any noise from neighboring rooms—perfect for rest and mental clarity during a stressful job-hunting period. The gym was well-maintained and never overcrowded, so I could work out comfortably whenever I wanted. One little detail that stood out: a cute duck-shaped bath toy placed in the bathroom. It brought a smile to my face and helped ease the tension of job-seeking stress. The location is convenient, the staff are friendly, and the overall atmosphere is calm and welcoming. For anyone attending career events in Boston, this hotel offers great value and a relaxing retreat. Definitely a place I’d return to.

This cozy little apartment is a gem for travelers who value convenience and charm. Right across the street from Walgreens and Dollar Tree, it’s super easy to grab last-minute essentials you might’ve forgotten to pack. The neighborhood feels safe and quiet, perfect for a peaceful stay. Walking distance to the train station makes commuting effortless—especially handy if you’re heading to Salem or exploring nearby areas. The host was incredibly kind and attentive, going out of her way to help with any request we had. A few minor quirks: the floors and doors creak quite a bit—expected in an older building, but we were mindful not to disturb neighbors below. The heating didn’t work properly during a few chilly nights, but we reported it right away, and the host confirmed HVAC would be checked after our departure. While air conditioning isn’t common in colder northern climates (and honestly, we wouldn’t expect it here), it did feel a bit snug on the coldest day. Still, that’s just part of the seasonal reality up north. Overall, this place offers a warm, welcoming vibe, great location, and excellent value. We’d definitely stay here again—especially for travelers who appreciate authenticity and local charm over cookie-cutter hotels.

Staying at this hotel was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Boston’s Seaport District, just a short walk from restaurants, shops, and scenic waterfront views. Public transit access is excellent, making it easy to explore downtown without needing a car. Parking was simple and convenient, which was a big plus for us as we drove in. The room itself was spacious and thoughtfully designed—plenty of room to move around, with a fully equipped kitchenette that made our stay feel more like home. The bed was super comfortable, and everything was clean and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. With great value, top-notch amenities, and an ideal spot, this is definitely a place I’d recommend—and one I’d happily return to.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Boston’s medical and academic district, surrounded by top hospitals and universities. It’s just a short walk to the Back Bay Fens, perfect for a peaceful stroll. On-site, there’s a cozy, retro-style dining spot reminiscent of an old-school cafeteria—great food, friendly service, and super convenient. Whether you're here for work, visiting family at the hospital, or exploring the city, this place hits all the right notes. Comfortable rooms, excellent value, and a real home-away-from-home vibe.

This was our second stay at this hotel, and it was just as wonderful as the first. We brought our child along, and they had a peaceful, happy time exploring the quiet, well-maintained rooms and common areas. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive—every interaction felt personal and genuine. From check-in to room service, everything ran smoothly. The location is excellent: close to public transit, making it easy to explore downtown Boston and nearby attractions without hassle. The ambiance is calm and elegant, perfect for families or anyone seeking a relaxing retreat. With such high standards in comfort, cleanliness, and hospitality, this place truly stands out. We’ll definitely be back.

I’ll admit I was a bit nervous when I saw the other reviews on this site after booking—it was a last-minute decision, so I just crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. The automated emails felt a little impersonal at first, and I worried whether someone was actually on the ground. But every time I reached out with a question, I got a quick and friendly response, which put me at ease. Once inside, everything was spotless and beautifully kept—so much better than I expected. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the room, though compact, was exactly what we needed for a cozy stay. The front door was a bit stiff and required a firm pull to open, but that’s a minor detail. Our housekeeper was genuinely warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. I didn’t notice any thin walls since there were no other guests around during our visit. Overall, this place is perfect for a solo traveler or couple looking for a quiet, clean, and convenient base while exploring Boston. It’s not about luxury—it’s about comfort, value, and peace of mind. I’d absolutely recommend it if you’re looking for a reliable short-term stay without the hassle.

The location is decent, but getting in touch with the property was nearly impossible. I sent multiple emails and made several calls, but received absolutely no response—no confirmation, no updates, nothing. Several reviews already mentioned issues accessing the room, which makes the lack of communication even more concerning. There’s no on-site management, yet they claim to respond promptly. That promise rings hollow when you’re left waiting indefinitely just to book a room. It’s hard not to wonder if they’re still in business at all. If this is how guest service works, it’s a major red flag for anyone considering staying here.

Staying at No. 284 Back Bay Hotel by Sonder was a great experience overall, especially because of the unbeatable location right across from the green parkway—waking up to that view every morning was peaceful and refreshing. The room itself is clean, modern, and well-designed with plenty of space and good privacy; you really feel like you have your own little sanctuary without any unwanted interruptions. That said, there’s no housekeeping service during your stay—no daily cleaning or trash removal—so you’ll need to take care of those things yourself, which might be a bit unexpected if you're used to full-service hotels. Still, for travelers who value independence and minimal interference, this can actually be a plus. It's perfect for solo trips, business stays, or anyone wanting a quiet, self-managed base in the heart of Boston. Public transit is super convenient—just a short walk to the subway—and there are plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops nearby. All in all, it’s a solid choice if you’re looking for comfort, convenience, and a touch of local charm without the extra frills.

Staying at Maverick Suites at 28 Fenway was an absolute highlight of my trip to Boston. The suite was spotless, well-maintained, and had all the essentials for a comfortable stay. What really stood out was the location—Fenway Park and Newbury Street are just steps away, making it incredibly easy to explore shops, restaurants, and local attractions on foot. I loved wandering down Newbury Street in the evening, and there were plenty of great takeout options nearby that delivered fast and tasted delicious. Public transit is also super convenient—just a short walk to the subway. This place offers unbeatable value and a prime neighborhood vibe. Definitely one of the best spots in Boston for travelers who want comfort, convenience, and character.

Staying at Maverick Suites at 245 Newbury St was a fantastic experience. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Boston, steps away from shops, restaurants, and public transit. Walking around the neighborhood felt lively and safe, and the building itself has a cool, modern vibe that made it feel like home. The staff were responsive and friendly, especially when I had quick questions over the phone—they always got back to me fast. Parking wasn’t an issue either—since street meters are affordable and parking garages were just a few blocks away, I didn’t have to stress about finding a spot. One small note: the bathroom could be more practical. There’s very little space to place personal items, and the sink feels more artistic than functional with its angled design. But honestly, that’s a tiny detail compared to everything else. The room was spacious, stylish, and well-maintained. For the price and location, this is a top-tier choice. I’d definitely stay here again.

We stayed one night at this hotel before boarding our cruise, and it was the perfect transition. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from the dock, which made everything so convenient. The hotel itself is modern and clean, with a great vibe throughout. Our room was spacious, quiet, and well-appointed. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful—answered all our questions promptly and made us feel welcome. While the price isn’t the cheapest, it’s totally justified by the excellent location, comfort, and service quality. For travelers heading to or from a cruise, this is a top pick. I’d definitely stay here again.
