Unbeatable location in back bay with access to rest, shopping, and train (T) stops. Safe elevators and neighborhood and walkable throughout back bay and to downtown Boston. Facilities in such historical building were impeccable and the staff superb. In-house bar and eating facilities were a plus. Wish bathroom was more updated and that at least a luggage rack be available.

Beautiful, well located and clean hotel but very noisy (especially at night). I could hear a lot of noise from sirens and cars honking. It seems like windows need to be double or even triple paned.

Great hotel

Everything was great except that they used a powder carpet cleaner that made it difficult to breathe in the room and we needed to open the windows in order to breathe.
