Taryn FJanuary 24, 2012Great hotel with super-friendly staff right by the convention center and a quick walk to good restaurants and bars. The hotel lobby bar is perfect for solo travelers looking to unwind!Upvoted Feb 9
Great stay. All the staff I encountered from the doormen to front desk were friendly and helpful. Loved the bed and shower. Parking was expensive (even self parking) but would stay here again.
Tonya McKinneyApril 23, 2014While not my first choice of Boston hotels, seems to be a great place for an event. #CEBSummit has been remarkably well run. Lobster rolls, crab cakes & airy sweet potato pastries--great event food.
An exerciser's haven. They have exercise clothes you can borrow for $5 if you forgot yours. Includes New Balance shirt, pants, and shoes with socks you can keep.
Crystal BeaucheminJanuary 10, 2015There is meter parking about half mile walk, right on the bridge. Free after 8pm. There is also an attached garage, but it's pricy. They do validate.
Ryan BallApril 7, 2015Sure, the price you pay is a little steep for the size of your room, however the hotel is located right next to a convention center and it is also pretty nice. Good beds
Bear DogApril 29, 2014A lot of haters on this thread. I slept just fine walls no thinner than any other hotel. And yeah it's expensive but it's Boston it always is. Rooms n common areas lovely.
View is good!! But the charge of the parking on your room's card.. So you can pay only $36/night and you can get your car as much as you can.
Amaury JJune 7, 2018Absolutely amazing front desk service. The hotel is also at a prime location. Close to many bars and restaurants. I cannot wait to return.- Cat LoSeptember 1, 2013Great hotel and heavenly beds. I checked in with a loud baby crying next door and the concierge was able to change my rooms to a corner room. Had a great stay! Thanks
Very good event venue. Rooms are close together. Event staff people I worked with were fantastic.
Brad SukalaApril 2, 2012They do guided runs (about 3mi) every Mon, Wed, and Fri. Great way to start your morning. The guides are knowledable and very friendly!
Tobias KurolSeptember 12, 2014Fitness center opens up at 5 am, but ask the reception and they will send someone to open up for you even earlier.
Jackie CampbellJuly 9, 2012Rodney is the nicest bellhop ever! Told us all about the hotel and the rooms features when we entered and said to call him personally if we needed anything.- Brian StraussAugust 16, 2017Love that it's close to downtown and also 6 minutes from the airport. Newer hotel, not one that's been refurbished. The rooms and beds are comfortable. The restaurant is mediocre and expensive.
- sergioFebruary 20, 2013Wifi should be free access in the rooms. Breakfast menu for the crew members limited :-( Nice hotel, rooms and gym with swimmingpool.
P.Diddy DiddyJuly 13, 2013Only thing that's free here is bottle water and in-room Starbucks. The bed is amazing with decent amenities, but skip food or drinks. The waterfront has much better and less $ just a 5 min walk away
Sarah BaldwinMarch 13, 2013First room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. After I complained, got upgraded to a room on a higher floor with city view. Super comfortable beds! Didn't hear my neighbors, as others have complained
VernaMay 26, 2012They still charge you for wifi (almost $20/day for "high speed") and walls are REALLY thin where you'll hear every moan and groan of your neighbor so ask for a room at the end of the hall.
Convenient location for the convention center but unfortunately not much else in Boston. Great heated pool/hot tub
Standard Westin, yes the walls are paper thin and yes the parking it insanely overpriced, but all Westins are - it's what it says on the can! Breakfast SHOULD be included for $385/night - but it's not- Beautiful and clean hotel. It's in a nice area away (but not too far) from downtown Boston.
Walk to Papagayo for dinner one night. Be sure to order the strawberry jalapeño marg!- Oh, and don't bother with the wifi - it's not very good signal, and when you do get 'full service' on the gold package for $20 it's no faster than 3G.
- The doormen have ice cold water and a towel waiting for you when you come back from a run. Now that's service!
Otel.comMay 3, 2012Don't miss the hotel's Birch Bar and Patio. They make great cocktails here. http://j.mp/IBocQ6
Dan WaldronMay 9, 2013Nice hotel, but you have to pay almost $20 for Wi-Fi. You can get it for free at Seaport Hotel across the street.
Richard KiddAugust 31, 2018This is a very disappointing Westin. Service was not good, breakfast buffet was awful. If you prefer SPG Hotels, we had a much better stay at the Element Seaport last year.
Camilla Velasquez WolfAugust 7, 2012No wifi downstairs. $5 incentive to forgo a room cleaning, which is lovely, except that breakfast costs $30.
Andrew CNovember 14, 2017Sterile and expensive business hotel far enough from everything to require a ride-share app. Unless you have to stay here, don’t.- Great hotel n staff. Beautiful waterfront and city views
Lisa NYCnonprofitNovember 12, 2019Instead of matching an lower rate they will give u a 50$ voucher towards food. Clams are not take out but everything else is ok.
Joe CooperMay 21, 2018This place serves its basic purpose. Bathroom was kind of gross. Couldn’t adjust the temp in the room or open a window. Will probably avoid staying here again.
David AMay 9, 2011On Mon, Wed, and Fri mornings at 6:30a the hotel sponsors a 30 minute jogging group that tours Boston's waterfront sites
