Shelburne Falls Vacations from ￥191,597

Property is located in a very nice area. No frill, what they advertise, you get.

Washer/Dryer did not work properly. Despite 2 calls and 1 email to customer service, the issue was not resolved. The washer didn’t rinse clothing out and they remained sopping wet. They required extensive drying time as a result ( over 4 hours). This was extremely inconvenient.

The property wasn’t at the level we expected of the Mandarin Oriental, however the location was good and walkable to Bay Bay restaurants and shopping.

I had high expectations since we have been to Raffles Singapore before and after the recent renovations and it is one of our favorite hotels in the world! Glad to say that Raffles Boston did not disappoint. The hotel decor is gorgeous, thoughtfully luxurious in every detail. Location is great. Service is professional but friendly. The room butler is a convenience that cannot be overstated. Also, the first hotel that actually kept the room temperature at 66 F during the whole night. Adios, Four Seasons! Raffles is my new home in Boston.

Had a 4 night stay at the Maverick Suites on Temple Street. I mainly booked this room to be close to my daughter, who lives a couple of doors down. The room is a bit tight for two people, but my friend & I made it work by sleeping 90 degrees on the double bed to turn it into more of a "short king". Room was very clean, however the one suggestion I would make is to use less of the strong-smelling cleaner (Fabioso?) or a more natural cleaner. Otherwise, the property felt safe and clean. Beautiful hardwood floors, nice bathroom & small kitchen area. Staff is very responsive via TEXT (not by phone). We requested clean towels etc, and they were very accommodating. Temple St. is walkable to many sites you'll want to check out in Boston via a walk or to the Park St T station. I would recommend staying at the Maverick Suites!
