Harborside Inn Of Boston
This is our second time staying at the harbor Inn. We love the convenience of the hotel as well as the rooms. The hotel is lacking in the in-room amenities, but that gets over shadowed by the overall great experience.

The Langham, Boston
Very nicely decorated room, fine furnitures. Love its hot tub, pool, and fitness room. The hotel manager is really nice and helpful but some of the staff.

Omni Parker House
Beautiful lobby and helpful staff. The room itself was small and a bit worn, though clean. Decent value for the price, but the lobby set my expectations high for the room which was a bit disappointing. Location is excellent.
