Top Boston Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Boston Beacon Hill

Wyndham Boston Beacon Hill

8/10 Good
"The location was conveniently-located so it was easy to get to some of the places we needed to go to (ie, Logan airport, the MFA, Faneuil Hall/Quincy Market), but overall, nothing was excellent here. Everything was just good. The rooms were okay-sized (not great); the hotel was clean (just enough that I didn't feel I had to wear slippers); there were some amenities at least (they have a pool you can actually swim in and the rooms provide lotion - yay). Negatives: Every night we were there, Room Service always shortchanged us 1 towel, so we always needed to call to get another towel. When calling, it always took minimum of 15 minutes for someone to pick up, and then another 15-60 minutes to get a towel. We also needed a tissue box and one was never replaced in the 3 days we were there. I had to find a housekeeping cart to snag one myself."

"This is one of the best hotels I have been to. Very clean. They have water stations on the 6th and 8th floor to fill up water bottles or make tea and coffee. They also give free water bottles at the front desk. Great staff. Great environment. Clean beds. The Parker Bar was great and had lovely staff as well."

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent
"The staff..all of them from front desk to door and valet staff were amazing. I don’t believe I have ever stayed in a hotel where the entire staff was as engaged and friendly. They seemed to genuinely want to make our stay the best ever and all of them gave the air of people who love what they do. One of the best hotel experiences I have ever had! I highly recommend this hotel both for the great location but even more for the extraordinary staff!!"

"I stayed at this hotel after a few years. The hotel has been completely remodeled and is really nice. There was a problem with the air conditioning on the sixth floor, so the staff promptly moved us to a similar room on the fourth floor. Staff were pleasant and helpful!"
