Built in 1925, it features a beautiful neo-Georgian façade that complements the neighborhood's rich architectural history. Accented with marble and brass, your One-Bedroom Suite is an opulent affair. Dining is among the finest in the city at Clio, which under the direction of Chef Ken Oringer has become one of the top restaurants in North America and has been consistently lauded as among the best in Boston.

This is a classic old school gem! The Elliot is beautifully maintained and immaculate, incredibly elegant and simultaneously very comfortable. The staff was perfection at every interaction. We stayed in a one bedroom suite. It was spacious and well appointed. Perfect for parent’s weekend, our son’s friends were able to come and visit before we went out to dinner. We had space to take naps, while others did work. If you want modern, sleek, impersonal… stay somewhere else. If you want warm, attentive hospitality set in comfortable timeless luxury, stay at the Elliot. We’ll be back!

We had a wonderful weekend stay at The Hotel Eliot. It as recommended by a client, and we will be sure to let them know how pleased we were.

This is a sweet place. An old school charmer. Quaint comes to mind. As does nostalgic, tradition and expensive. The room (they gave us) was directly across from the elevator which always feels like you're being punished for something. The interiors have an almost Mad Men pre 1968 vibe. It's not luxurious in the contemporary 330 thread count cushy comforter.

Lovely hotel. Great location and friendly, helpful staff. We had a suite which was spacious and comfortable except the Queen size bed was a bit small for us. We didn’t make it into the restaurant for the sushi which was a shame. We did have breakfast at the hotel and although the buffet selection looked good, the hot food wasn’t very hot, the plates were cold, the restaurant was cold so everything ended being cold.

This is a lovely hotel, conveniently located with a very warm and engaging staff. The rooms are beautifully appointed and the restaurant Uni is one of the best in the city. No doubt these are some of the reasons Travel & Leisure called it the best hotel in Boston. Two factors make me demur from that designation, however: (1) Mass Ave and Commonwealth Ave, at which corner the hotel is located, is one of the busiest in the area so, if your room is located on one of the street sides, as ours was, you will have to put up with considerable traffic noise, despite the double glazed windows. (2) More distressingly, ours was one of the most inconvenient bathrooms I have ever experienced in a luxury hotel. The toilet was located two inches from the wall and so low that I practically needed a crane to get off it. The shower was as narrow and confined a space as I have seen. In both cases I was grateful that I had lost weight over the past few years (I am 6 feet and 180 pounds) or I might still be stuck in the shower! I don't know if the other rooms' bathrooms are equally incommodious but guests may want to inspect before taking a room.
