Stayed here for one night after getting a deal on Priceline My husband and I were looking to stay in downtown Boston after our anniversary dinner. We're from the area but always look forward to a night in the city to get away.
I mentioned to the front desk at check in that it was our anniversary and we were wondering if there were any upgrades available. I didn't even get a friendly greeting much less a Congratulations. And the only upgrades available were for a fee. Not wanting to stay in a double bed with my husband, I begrudgingly agreed to a $50 fee for a queen.
The room was small - but i was expecting that given the age of the hotel. Smaller rooms and smaller bathrooms. But it definitely adds to the history you're steeped in and that's all around you.
We had a drink in the bar downstairs and had a great conversation with the bartender. He was really interesting and introduced us to a lot of new drinks - and some good sports convo. Great service.
The location of the hotel is a tourist's dream. You're within walking distance to Faneuil Hall, the Freedom trail, the theater district and Washington Street for shopping. You literally don't have to worry about getting anywhere. There are plenty of T stations nearby too. Boston is a great city to be a tourist and so easy to walk around. Definitely recommend this hotel if you want to be centrally located to everything.
Probably wasn't the best choice for us since we were looking for comfort over location. But we still had a good stay, a good night's sleep and celebrated our anniversary.
