The Midtown Hotel MOD Collection by Sonesta

10/10 Excellent

Hyatt Regency Boston

10/10 Excellent

"From the first day of our trip and to the last day, the hotel staff have been so helpful and nice. The property is well maintained and excellent. We got to upgrade our room for early check in and ended up getting a beautiful view of the city. The room was so nice and perfect for our stay. I love the tokens we got to receive for a free clam chowder soup in one of the dining areas of the hotel. The hotel is also super close to MBTA station stops like Downtown Crossing, Boylston, and Chinatown. There is also some other places close like the Paramount theater, the Boston common park, and some shopping retail. I would stay here again for my next visit. Highly recommend."

Hilton Boston Park Plaza

"Great gym in the basement and super clean building"

Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, easy parking with valet out front, clean rooms, nice bathrooms"

The Royal Sonesta Boston

10/10 Excellent

"When entering the room, there should be a fresh scent, rather than the smell of disinfectant or cleaning agents often associated with just having been cleaned. But overall, I am basically satisfied."

Hotel AKA Boston Common

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great, staff was very friendly and helpful, my room was clean. The only thing is that my car was"
