The Godfrey Hotel Boston

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent
"The Godfrey hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Boston. The hotel benefits from modern bedrooms & bathrooms which are spotlessly clean, as are the communal areas."

The Dagny Boston

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was beautifully maintained and the rooms were great! The staff was very attentive and helpful; everyone was super nice. Only thing I didn’t like was how dim the rooms are and the cost of valet. It’s difficult to get ready/put on makeup with the lack of lighting and $70/day for valet when there are no other parking options is steep! Add to that a $200 per night room hold and the bill racks up really quick."

"Stayed 2 nights. Great location for sightseeing. Pretty spendy, but that seems to be the case for all hotels in downtown Boston. No coffee in room or in lobby for guests, and no microwaves in rooms. Wished they provided those amenities. We had a bizarre encounter with 3 young men at 11 pm “ghost hunting” in our hallway banging on our door. We called security and they came immediately and escorted them out. Kudos for an excellent security team."

Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor

10/10 Excellent
"Had to have an overnight stay after a flight cancellation, they were able to get us a hotel with short notice. The front staff was very courteous and we each got a free cup of chowder was really good. Even though the hotel was right next to the airport, we barely heard the planes take off. The restaurant was nice and the wait staff was very nice, please it had a nice view across the water to Boston."
