Great property for our visit to Northeastern University. It was an easy taxi ride to the airport and an easy walk or subway ride to campus. Great shopping and dining across the street, and the hotel stored our luggage until our departure in the evening.

Fantastic hospitality. Crazy weekend with the Marathon yet they remained calm, cool, collected, helpful and curitious. Louis at the front desk was especially helpful. I think that was his name. He was on at night. The morning crew was great too! The guys stood at the front door so no one who wasn't a guest were awesome! Both of them. One gentlemen was black and the other a big white gentlemen. Excellent. Room was great. First room had a perfume odor and I really dislike that. Louis moved rooms around and found me a new room. Both rooms were clean and the second one didn't have a perfume smell. It was a fragrance, not a bad smell. It was just very strong. Shirley was on the floor and was immediately attentive. She is AWESOME!!! So great. She saw me talking with another person cleaning rooms who didn't understand what I was saying. She came over, super polite and helped me from there. Give her a raise!!! lol I travel to Boston for work. I am the owner of Bridgewater Chocolate. We just opened a pop-up shop on Newbury. I visit often. I am a customer of The Lenox but if for some reason, they don't have a room, I will come over to The Colonnade. I heard from each of you that you share rooms if necessary. I will continue to stay at The Lenox but will be happy to reserve a room with you guys if the Lenox is not available. I just want to say great job! Best, Andrew Blauner

Disappointing. Restaurant was closed and no room service— which wasn’t made clear at time of booking. Room was fine but very generic and almost industrial vibe.

This is 2nd time staying here and hotel continues to deliver excellent service. Staff are very friendly especially Norman, doorman who was very accommodating and arranged taxi and recommendations to suit each individual. Room extremely clean and spacious. Clean Hotel very central directly across from prudential centre where there are wide selection of shops and eating places. Would stay here again when next planning trip to Boston.

There was a bloody handprint on the second room we moved to after being placed in our first room that was 900 degrees and smelled like cigarette smoke. There was hair in the bathroom, no menus for room service, and streaming access for airplay on phones to tv did not work. i had stayed here five years ago with my daughter and loved it which was the only reason I came back. It was a really disappointing stay.

Our bathroom door didn’t close. We called the front desk as soon as we arrived in the room, they said they’d send someone immediately, no one showed up. We waited 2 hours and then left for our event. The next day we called again and they said “didn’t someone come yesterday?” This time someone came, and we had to wait around to move rooms. The new room had hair in the bathtub and sink. We didn’t report that because we needed to get ready for our next event. Not a great experience overall.
