Awesome hotel. Won’t stay anywhere else in the future. Incredible view. Current concert series of entertainers outside is amazing. All the sunset cruises, tiki bars, water taxis leave from there. We walked to the NE aquarium area with ease. North end and Boston common were all doable with my 15 and 12 year olds. Ate breakfast every day at the Sea Grille and enjoyed a few drinks at the Dark Bar while the kids had chips and ice cream. The fitness center was better than 95% of hotels.

Great stay overall! The location was within walking distance of the aquarium and close to the subway. The atmosphere was lovely, the room was spacious, comfortable, exceptionally clean, and a great value for the price. I was on the 16th floor and didn't hear any noise during my stay. Service and amenities were excellent. My only concerns were finding a chipped glassware near the ice bucket on my last night and not receiving any response when requesting ice through the in-room iPad. I had to call the front desk each time instead, which made the iPad seem somewhat pointless. Other than that, I had a wonderful experience and would gladly stay again.

An exceptional stay from start to finish. Our room was immaculately maintained, and the harbor view was simply breathtaking. The staff went above and beyond at every turn—warm, attentive, and genuinely gracious. Each morning began at the Dandelion restaurant downstairs, which offered a delightful array of fine beverages and expertly crafted breakfast fare. Evenings brought an elegant turndown service: slippers thoughtfully placed by the bedside, freshly laundered towels, and every detail attended to with remarkable care—right down to the meticulously coiled telephone cords. For those seeking a true five-star experience, we cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

Truly a 5-star, world class hotel. Large rooms. Impeccable service. Views to either the harbor or city (pay more for the harbor view). Very quiet with the room facing the city. It is the little things that make this a great hotel. In the room - 2 tv's with a varied selection of around 60 channels, high-end toiletries, Lenovo tablet with all sorts of information, including white noise. Nightly turn down service. Frette bed linens. Pillow choices. In the bathroom the amenity porcelain box had collar stays, spill cleaner, etc. Comfortable two-person couch. Just amazing.

We had a wonderful stay! The hotel is top notch with amazing service! Their hospitality started at check in with the young gent who upgraded our room to a nice harbor view since the hotel was not at capacity and knew I was hoping to make this a special visit with my daughter. Room service provided extra waters. At check out it was the first time I experienced where they did not need to assign a time rather just made note of a late check out which was helpful since our flight was delayed due to a snow storm the night before. We departed at 1pm so it was not anything unusual but they made it pain free to request.
It's a great addition to your portfolio of fine hotel and resorts that you provide on your site and where you offer your specials.
