Friendly, helpful staff in almost empty hotel. Decor and furnishings are nice. Breakfast and coffee service suspended because of COVID. It's normally a lively neighborhood, but largely shut down. Still, dining is available in the Triangle, Quincy Market and the North End. 24 hour Dunkin Donuts is around the corner on Causeway Street.
United States of AmericaLast night was the first time I stayed at The Boxer. It was fabulous. Reasonable price for such a great location. My friend and I had dinner at the hotel restaurant. She ordered a chicken dish. The manager came over & advised they had run out and apologized. He made recommendations for alternate dishes. While waiting for our meal, the manager brought us a complimentary appetizer for not having my friends 1st choice. Delicious brussel sprouts! When our main course was ready, it was delivered by the chef. Such a pleasant surprise. He was delightful to talk to. Dinner was excellent, served quickly ( we were on our way to a show) by a wonderfully pleasant staff at a very reasonable price. I will definitely be back.
United States of AmericaVery friendly staff, comfortable room and early check in.
United States of AmericaFrom the moment you arrive you are taken care of with a smile. The staff was extremely accommodating. The property is very well taken care of. Every single person we met that worked there wanted to make sure we were enjoying our stay. Bravo to the Boxer!
United States of AmericaKarena at the front desk made us feel welcome from the minute we walked in. She told us she upgraded our room for free to a room with a king size bed and we felt like we were getting the celebrity treatment. When she heard we wanted to eat before the concert, she immediately went to talk to someone in the restaurant and when we came down 1/2 hour later seats were waiting for us at the bar!!! She was just amazing!!!
United States of AmericaCouldn’t pick a better hotel location if the purpose of your trip is to attend an event at TD Gardens. Everything was within walking distance (Quincy Market & Little Italy). The rooms are very clean and the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating in all ways. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend this hotel to others.
CanadaStaff was excellent and friendly! When we checked in, Julia was kind enough to point out some spots for us to check out! We asked for an early check in and within about an hour of us getting there 930 am the room was ready! The hotel is in a perfect spot close to the north station t train and the trolley ride which is great to see the city by. They had a little cute restaurant too. The room was perfect not much storage but still plenty of space for our belongings. Would definitely stay here again. Short walk to the sites or a quick Lyft or uber ride!
United States of AmericaThe building is really cool. The property is a great location. Easy walk to TD Garden and Quincy Market. The staff was very friendly!!
United States of AmericaThe staff was friendly and very accommodating, Samantha was especially helpful. I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Boston.
United States of AmericaThe front desk staff were very friendly and we received a warm welcome and a glass of wine when we checked in.
