Reviews for Boston Harbor Hotel
Disappointing
I have always wanted to stay at this hotel and finally had the opportunity. The location is perfect - right by the ferry and in a great area of Boston. We had a water view room which was nice. My biggest issue was the height of the toilet. These are the originals and slightly higher than a kid's toilet so low by any adult standards. That's a deal breaker in what is supposed to be a luxe hotel. Other issues that were easily fixable. The shampoo and bath gel was attached to the wall and the pumps didn't work so unusable. Of course, by the time you realize this, your hair is already wet, etc. And luckily we caught the fact that the alarm clock was set to go off earlier than we wanted to wake up. Fitness facilities are nice and they even offer classes. Pool and whirlpool were clean and at a great temperature however the tile floor was very slippery when wet. The restaurant was excellent especially for breakfast. And the service there was perfect! First and last time at this hotel because of that low toilet. So many other wonderful hotels in Boston at a lower price point.

Great hotel in Boston
Great hotel, impeccable service and very friendly staff. The health centre (gym and Spa) is great and the views from the rooms are amazing. Highly recommended for a stay in Boston, for business or leisure.

The best family vacation
We had an amazing time at Boston Harbor hotel. We brought our 2 kids and puppy and everybody was so welcoming. Hanging out with the doormen was a vacation highlight for the kids. Everybody went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had fun. They even gave the kids stuffed animals and replaced my daughters sheets with fragrance free ones since she has sensitive skin.

We chose the Boston Harbor Hotel for our 40th anniversary
Our stay at the Boston Harbor Hotel was wonderful. The housekeeping staff made our stay so easy and enjoyable. The restaurant was beautiful and the food was excellent. Our waiters/waitresses for breakfast and dinner were exceptional! The doormen were always so polite and conscientious. Everyone made our trip memorable.

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.
