Harborside Inn Of Boston

Harborside Inn Of Boston

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is in a great downtown location with a quick park area to drop off luggage, and a parking garage was just a few blocks from there. A car is NOT needed in Boston... such a walkable town. So easy to find places to eat, both cafes in the mornings and lunch and dinner spots near this hotel and pretty much no matter where we went in Boston, it was easy to find many options for meals. The lobby was inviting with places to sit, iced lemon water available, and friendly helpful staff each time we interacted with them. The 2 elevators were fast. Our room was well appointed and very clean. It was also quiet at night. We appreciated the various lighting options in the room AND that all were on dimmer switches! Bathroom was small - hard for 2 people to maneuver in and out of shower, but the shower stall itself was of good size. And their towels were of nice quality. Bed was comfortable. We would definitely stay there again."

"As a solo traveler, I felt very safe during my stay. The hotel is in a great location, and I was able to walk everywhere I needed to go. The hotel restaurant wasn’t the best, but the receptionist was extremely nice, welcoming, and helpful. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and especially appreciated the convenient location and feeling of safety."
