Hotel AKA Boston Common

Rebecca is AWESOME! Great bartender, phenomenal conversationalist and ever so likable! Definitely come here and enjoy a wonderful experience!

We loved the location for its close walking distance to the Common, Public Garden, Faneuil Hall, the North End, and also public transit. The hotel is right on, and close to the start, of the Freedom Trail. The hotel was very clean, quiet, modern and surprisingly spacious for a city hotel. Staff was super friendly, the wine hour was a nice surprise! The restaurant was cozy with a nice bar and we stopped in frequently. We would definitely visit again and recommend this hotel!

I was passing by this hotel when I saw a cute bar. Had a really good time with Rebecca, besides she makes a mean martini. The only thing was missing was some food. I could've stayed longer but decided to eat somehwere else.

Very wonderful experience. Had never been to the Hotel AKA and it is terrific. Had dinner at the bar, at the restaurant in the Hotel. Adam took good care of me and we enjoyed an engaging conversation while the service was excellent and the food delicious. Great location in Boston for walking to all main attractions. Will return.

My stay at Hotel AKA Boston Common was truly wonderful. I arrived on August 4, 2025, and was warmly welcomed by the front desk receptionist, Sherley. Her customer service was exceptional—she was friendly, accommodating, and patiently answered all of my questions. She made the check-in experience seamless and set a great tone for the rest of my stay. The amenities were fantastic. I especially enjoyed spending time at the a.bar with a few colleagues—the atmosphere was great, and the bartender provided excellent service. My room exceeded expectations: spacious, clean, and located on the 17th floor with a beautiful city view. It was the perfect place to unwind after a long day. The only downside to my experience came later that night when I returned from an evening out. I had some leftover food from a restaurant and wanted to warm it up. I called the front desk to ask about a microwave but was informed that none were available at the time and that a building engineer would need to be on-site to provide one. While this wasn’t a major issue, I would recommend having a centrally located microwave in the hotel for guest use—it would be a convenient addition. Aside from that minor inconvenience, everything else about my stay was exceptional. I couldn’t have chosen a better hotel, and I highly recommend Hotel AKA Boston Common to anyone visiting Boston. I’ll definitely be booking here again on my next trip to the city.
