My room was clean, modern, and well-designed. The staff was friendly and helpful. The whole entrance and lobby area are undergoing extensive renovation, so it is not clear what it will have to offer. There were no dining facilities, and it is unclear whether there will be. It is convenient to North Station, TD Garden, the North End and Faneuil Hall market, but not necessarily to breakfast. The whole area is dominated by a new building, State Street at One Congress. It is impressively designed, but, along with adjacent construction, seems to greatly constrict foot traffic between the train station and the city, leaving them a little dingier. Overall, it was a fine place, but I hope that it is on the way to becoming much better.

The rooms were beautifully redecorated. Bed was very comfortable. The hotel is under construction leaving no amenities open for our stay and was not advertised when booking. Beware. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. With the rooms being updated, I found it very odd they did not have fixtures that included USB ports for charging devices. Great, quiet location.

I felt really fooled when I entered the lobby for check in. I have chosen that hotel because they said on their webpage „ welcome to our new lobby and bare area“ along with some photos. When I arrived there was nothing like that on the phots on their webpage. I asked the front desk guy the next morning about that new nice bar and he admitted that the webpage isn’t right and told me that the lobby and bar is under construction. When I checked in the lady didn’t speak to me one sentence. She just gave me the keys without any other explanation. When we came back to the hotel after spending g the day in the city there was no room service. I don’t like the new rule that room service is only on request what I did not know because the lady at check in did not tell me. I pay full price and I want room service like it was before Covid. If I don’t want it then I put my sign out at the door. So I requested then room service for my second day and it was 3 pm or later when they knocked at the door. Then I wondered why they don’t have a coffee maker like other Hilton hotel have. The front desk guy told me that I could get one also on request. Please make sure that you have people at the check in they are willing to speak to customers and tell them all about their possible requests. The room itself was super nice and clean. But I felt so fooled & wasn’t expecting that from a hotel. If you don’t like to say the truths on your webpage then I think you don’t deserve our business.

1. Location is convenient and room is of decent size. 2. Some of the staff were rather brusque (especially at check-in). 3. Room furnishings are inadequate - no chair/table to work on, no closed closet 4. No coffee machine in room; no complimentary water 5. The whole lobby was being re-constructed. No warnings (drilling began at 7:30 am!) or apologies were given. It was hard to stay in the room during the day due to this.

The rooms are beautifully appointed. However there are no coffee making facilities in the room and the property is renovating its reception area so there are no hot drink facilities anywhere. I had to go out at 6am and get a coffee from Dunkin’ D. Really terrible! Also there where no free water bottles in the room. It’s really annoying!

The property was clean and well kept! The staff was amazing and I would recommend it to others. The pricing was reasonable but parking was not that fun. We did valet which I think was worth the money.

Nice Hotel downtown Boston. 7-10 minute walk to Quincy Market and about the same to the TD Fleet Center. Rooms updated but too small for family (perfect for two people). Staff very helpful and friendly. Looks like converting to new name. Not a lot of extras but great if looking for a place near the Government Center of downtown Boston. Oh, NO PARKING at the hotel itself. We would stay again though! Enjoy being close to many entertaining things, including the Freedom Trail.

This property is undergoing a renovation so the front lobby does not look like the photo you will see in the booking photo. The construction was very quiet and very well maintained to not disrupt guests. Rooms were spacious and clean. The snacks and items in room refrigerator are charged back to your room. HOWEVER, if you go downstairs behind the front desk the same items are complimentary. This is backwards in my opinion and I would have not know had I not asked the front clerk.

The hotel was doing some renovations when I got there they didn’t have any check-in keys available so staff had to go up and down with you every time until keys were available. Cleaning was really good. No complaints there and it was very convenient to the Celtics arena.
