First of all I have to mention that this was our second stay at the Mandarin Oriental Boston. Our first experience was somewhat "mixed" so we were courious about this second stay but in the end never regreted the decision. We were fortunate to stay 7 nights during early May and really enjoyed our stay from the arrival until the departure. Since we are frequent visitors to Boston as well as New England we had stayed in almost all 4 and 5* hotels in Boston and I have to say that the Mandarin Oriental Boston is probably Boston´s best hotel. The location on Boylston Street close to the Prudential Center and Mall as well as Newbury Street is absolute perfect. Especially during rainy or snowy weather. You will be able to exit the Hotel directly to the Mall without getting wet. During sunny weather all the nice shops and restaurants are only a stone throw away. Our favorite seafood-restaurant Atlantic Fish is right above the street from the Mandarin Oriental Boston so after dinner you literay just have to fall in your bed. Service at the MOBOS was at its best. We were always smiled at and greeted by name and everybody was super friendly and welcoming. We had booked the lowest room category or Lifestyle rooms on the 4th floor, but personally we liked this room much better the the Deluxe room category we previous had stayed in. Lifestyle rooms have a hardwood floor as well as a day bed below the window. Absolute fantastic rooms in terms of size, cleanliness and and equipment. Twice daily housekeeping made our room always look and feel like brand new. in regards of sleep quality I have to admit that I had the best sleep for weeks during this stay. Beds with Frette linen are like heaven and the sound proof windows guarantee almost no noise from busy Bolyston street. Really amazing are the Concierges Correy and David who were extremley helpfull with almost all reasonable and unreasonable requests. Also a nice touch is the courtesy Mercedes Benz limousine service within the Boston area. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would absolute recommend this hotel.
