Location worked out great for my needs. Staff was very friendly and the room was a decent size. The decor was contemporary and fun. And if you're a Redsox fan, there's no better place to stay.

Lori United States of America

it’s a beautiful building and central to where you want to go in Boston. We stayed in the room with the view of Fenway Park and let me just tell you it was one of the best views ever!! (for a baseball fan) The staff is extremely friendly and will help with whatever you need. The Concierge Nick was so wonderful and kind to us, he found out we were in our honeymoon and he gifted us a candle and some cookies from the hotel. staying and Hotel Commonwealth was a wonderful experience. When I come back to Boston I will definitely be staying here again!

Noemi United States of America

I had a fall while out walking. Kiki was cleaning my room when I returned with my lip bleeding and a painful hand. She sprang it to action and called her supervisor Bitmar and together they got me everything I needed and more. They care and concern made the room rate all wortwhile.

Ann United States of America

The complimentary coffee on the second floor is always enjoyable! The room was so clean and well maintained, and the location can't be beat!
