This is one beautiful hotel!! From the moment you walk in, the impressive lobby décor is welcoming and we really had no problems with the staff - they were quite attentive and helpful. The rooms are fabulous – plasma TVs, phenomenal luxury bedding, tasteful carpeting and drapes with every amenity you could wish for in a hotel room (except no coffee machine) and really nice lighting. We loved the lighting in the headboards as well as the stylish individual reading lamps. Robes, slippers, glass scale, organic herbal toiletries – all top of the line, not to mention the marble and granite bathroom with full wide bathtub and separate glass-encased shower, all of which was the highest quality material and really clean. I also enjoyed the user friendly electronic DO NOT DISTURB and HOUSEKEEPING buttons. The rooms were mostly quiet, although you could hear the next room door opening and closing and I could hear the shower on the upper floor as well. There are over 70 TV channels and every amenity in the room, so there wasn’t much more one could ask for, especially paying under $100 via priceline. I don’t know if the hotel will hold up over time, since it is such a new property, but I somehow think it should. We loved it and would definitely stay here again.
The only negative aspect to this hotel is the location. It faces a dirt pit of sorts, as this whole area is undergoing much rebuilding and renovation and although not a far walk from Quincy Market, I think it is more convenient for tourists to be situated in a more central area such as Copley. The area is totally dead day and night but you are only a two minute walk from South Station which is so convenient for using the T. We did not mind, as I’d take this kind of luxury hotel any day over the older more run down properties located centrally.
