Top Charles River Esplanade Hotel Reviews

The Dagny Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location to walk everywhere. Hotel was very clean and smelled good. Convenient coffee shop and delicious restaurants on the first floor. Very friendly staff."

Harborside Inn Of Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Best location!"

Revere Hotel Boston Common

8/10 Good

"Super nice staff and clean rooms. The hardest bed ever. Motorcycle racing or something outside the room at midnight for an hour- not in hotel control but if I had a baby I’d be mad. The slowest service in a restaurant I’ve ever experienced- almost an hour to be served (great staff just not enough)."

The Revolution Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very simple hotel just off the beaten path at a reasonable price. Certainly an older property that was renovated to more of today’s amenities…but you still realize there were limits to what they could do…but we liked it."

Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful and very clean room! It was the perfect space for a little getaway. The staff were very kind and we will definitely be back."

Hotel AKA Boston Common

8/10 Good

Wyndham Boston Beacon Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Great property from the time we pulled up to valet staff took the bags and made check in super easy. Chris was super friendly and so helpful with luggage. Would definitely stay there again."

Hyatt Regency Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great for walking the city. Parking was quite expensive but attached to hotel. The arrangement of the elevators and location of the lobby and pool/workout room was confusing. Room was clean and nice size. Great decor and modern design. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful on visiting the city. Ate at hotel restaurant—excellent."
