Top Boston Athenaeum Hotel Reviews

Hilton Boston Park Plaza

8/10 Good

"Great location, great food and drinks"

Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent"

Hotel AKA Boston Common

10/10 Excellent

"I've never spent this much money per night on a hotel room, but during the height of fall foliage season, there weren't many options. This is a small, luxury boutique hotel that is perfectly located, extremely quiet, and really mellow. If you want a crazy Boston bar scene, walk outside and turn left. Beantown. If you want an elegant lounge lizard place, walk outside and turn right to the Last Hurrah in the Omni. The AKA hotel bar was very pretty, and a great place to chill after a long day walking the freedom trail. Park St. metro stop is about three minutes away, Washington Street parallels Tremont, so going shopping is very easy - 5 minute walk to TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Home Goods if you've forgotten something. Great restaurants, and Luke's Lobster Rolls for a quick, decadent bite. So many famous eateries around. I really appreciated the housekeeping staff. My room was immaculate. When I couldn't get the excellent steamer undone, she did it for me. High quality linens, double-glazed windows, and lovely toiletries topped off the room. I also had a Swedish-style leather recliner and ottoman. Nespresso pods were replaced every day, and the fridge was pre-stocked with alcohol. I had enough room in it to put my morning yogurt. Best of all, they offered free yoga classes Saturday-Monday, perhaps due to the holiday. Really helpful after long flights. The gym had everything I needed, so I had a great stay."

Club Quarters Hotel Faneuil Hall, Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Recommend this stay. Excellent staff and great location"

Wyndham Boston Beacon Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and helpful staff."

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."
