The Dagny Boston

The Dagny Boston

5/5 Excellent
Best hotel we've stayed at in Boston
"We loved our stay at The Dagney. Our room was like a vault it was so quiet which we loved. The size of the room was on the smaller side, but organized very well so we hardly noticed. The bed was very comfortable and top notch. Super friendly and helpful staff. Location was walking distance to so many things. Hands down the best hotel we've stayed at in Boston. We'll be back for sure on our next visit."
