    There is too much fragrance in the room from cleaning products used. There is no place to refrigerate items unless you pay more for a mini fridge. There is no overhead lighting in the room.

    The location is great. The room was neat and clean.

    The carpet on the stair in our room had a hole in it. Would have appreciated better lighting in the bathroom for putting on make-up. Perhaps you could add a small lighted mirror specific for this purpose.

    The location of this hotel was the primary reason we chose it and enjoyed it.

    We had a nice stay in Boston.

    While fully realizing that I was paying a premium for the excellent location, it was less than gratifying to see that every single day of our stay (3 day stay - Thursday night to Saturday night) had a DIFFERENT price/day. The final bill was close to the total quoted to me when I made the reservation but it was not really evident when I made the booking that the price per day was going to vary as much as it did.

    The Bostonian Hotel is in an excellent location to visit Boston.

    Mediocre $1596 for 3 nights in a dated room with little service from housekeeping is amazing.

    Room 626 is extremely dated and in need of lots of TLC. $30.00 a night “destination fee” is ridiculous. Yes it is situated in the midst of historical sites but the center of town is now the new seaport.

    Front desk staff pleasant.

    The rooms were comfortable & clean but nothing special. We would have liked the option to book two queen size beds but instead of only found doubles available

    The location was excellent! Close to Quincy Market shops & restaurants and easy walk to everywhere we wanted to go, especially Long Warf. The staff was also very friendly! The little balconies had beautiful city views of the customs tower & great in the morning to open up.

    We were told water bottles are complimentary yet they were only stocked on the first day (fridge in the lobby). The rest of the stay, stock was never replenished. Also, we were never greeted by the reception staff throughout our stay.

    Location is right in the middle of downtown, opposite Quincy market. Loved the Juliet balcony in the King suite

    No waters in room for coffee, mini bar was not working properly..everything was warm. We were there for two nights and the housekeeping service only included making the bed. Coffee was not replaced and room was not refreshened… Wanted bottled water and there was none to be found in the lobby and the restaurant $15 for a bottle so we drank tap  from the bathroom sink.

    It was Historic. the location was awesome. Close to everything. Staff friendly!

    Very expensive, especially with 5 different daily charges. Why not inclusive rates like most other countries? Restaurant, which we didn't use, has no atmosphere, more like a bar.

    Excellent room, lovely bed, quiet and in brilliant location.

    Walls are very thin. Guest should be notified at check in that vendors on the street next to the hotel get very loud very early.

    The proximity to history is off the charts. The staff was wonderful.

    Seemed kind of “pricey” for something that wasn’t “special “ but sadly that seems to be the way things are these days in a desirable venue like Boston.

    Excellent location for the historical elements of tourism, Minutes from several underground stations. A five minute stroll to Long Wharf , the hub of the sea-going tours and whale watching. Also the Salem ferry. Literally across the road from Faneuil Hall and its multitude of street food vendors. The room was well equipped and serviced every day.

    Upon check-in and out, I had to drop my bags, then go park my car. Consequently, when checking out, it was pouring rain, and I had to, first, go get my car, then drive back to the hotel to get my bags. Which wouldn’t have been so bad if the hotel and parking structure weren’t both on one-way streets! I had to deal with crazy traffic just to get out of the garage and return to the hotel! Since a parking fee was charged by the hotel, it would have been wonderful if the valet parked & retrieved cars for the guests. Other than that…I had a great time staying at this location!

    Location was great!
