“Backbay Hotel - Boston - Great!”
We stayed in the Backbay Hotel in Boston for 6 nights, this hotel was not only situated in a very convenient part of Boston (only 25 minutes from Logan International by blue then green or orange lines) but was also in an iconic refurbished police headquarters building. Not only were the rooms nicely appointed and spacious and the building itself extremely eye catching the staff were superb. Throughout our stay all the staff be it reception, door, restaurant, bar etc were all exceptionally friendly and professional making our stay all the more enjoyable.

“Excellent hotel in an excellent location!”
Great value and great dining/bar in the middle of Boston. Highly Recommend it and I stay there about 3x a month.
“Loved this hotel”
The Back Bay hotel was great. We arrived at 8:00 A.M. off of a red eye flight. We didnt have a room booked until that night but they had a room open and let us check in very early. Everyone was very nice and helpful. The hotel is a bit outside the main area where the restaurants and stores are but it is a short walk to anything so it wasnt a big deal. I would recommend this hotel.

“Loved The Back Bay Hotel”
AWESOME hotel - great location, within walking distance of great Boston sites, and the subway station, which we took to Fenway Park one evening. Hotel staff was amazing, very accommodating, informative, and helpful. The room was perfect, clean, quiet, and even their room service was quick and the food was great. We will definitely stay here again, the next time we go to Boston!
