Top Ball Square Hotel Reviews

Hilton Boston Park Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great from location to the room!"

Omni Parker House

10/10 Excellent

"The Omni Parker is a historic hotel with a unique history. It’s beautiful and clean. The location is perfect for visiting the Freedom Trail on foot. We were within walking distance of Little Italy, the Underground Railroad tour and the WWII Ducks tour of Boston. There’s great shopping, restaurants, parks, coffee shops, and access to the subway all within walking distance of the hotel. It’s a beautiful section of Boston. We took an Uber from the airport to the hotel since we arrived after 1:30 am but took the subway back to the airport after checking out of the hotel. The Uber ride was only about 15 minutes. The hotel held our luggage for a couple hours after we checked out so we could explore before heading to the airport. I highly recommend the Omni Parker and a fun trip to Boston!!"

Boston Marriott Copley Place

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed how central this hotel was to all that you may need in the Boston area as a traveler. We easily took the train from the airport and didn't even need to go outside to check into the hotel. The only downside of our stay was that we woke up one morning with a bug crawling on one of the pillows. We approached the staff at the front desk about this and were immediately dismissed, being told "At least it's not a bedbug". As a Bonvoy member, I would have expected more out of the staff to at least apologize for this."
