The Verve Hotel Boston Natick, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The Verve Hotel Boston Natick, Tapestry Collection by Hilton is such a beautiful property. Everything feels clean, fresh, and thoughtfully designed, with a fun artsy aesthetic throughout the hotel. There are colorful, creative touches throughout the property that give it a fun, modern personality without feeling overdone. The artwork, unique decor, and little design details make exploring the hotel almost as enjoyable as staying there. The breakfast at The Pantry was a nice touch, and the restaurant has a really unique, cozy feel."
