Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I loved our stay!!! Our room view was awesome every night and morning! You could also sit outside by the harbor and enjoy a walk with the stunning view! My husband called ahead for our anniversary and they did this beautiful presentation on the bed! The bed was comfortable, loved the bathroom lighting. The clam chowder was so lovely. The closeness to the airport was a plus with the shuttle and you didn’t hear any airplane noise inside. We used the shuttle for the train station as well and all of our shuttle drivers were a delight. A special shoutout to CHAD!!!! Chad is the man!! Hotel provided water as well."
