Hotel AKA Back Bay was all that I could have asked for. The employees were friendly and attentive, and the decor was both modern and infused with a sense of history. I would definitely return when visiting Boston.

What a great find!
From the moment we pulled in, we were greeted by a friendly staff who took care of the car, bags and easy check-in. Totally renovated hotel in a great location. Rooms are super clean with great amenities. The restaurant and bar are located on the lower level with access to outdoor seating. I will not even think about staying anywhere else in the future and would highly recommend.

Watch out for the fees
The bed was comfortable. The air/heat unit was rather noisy. There was little room in the bathroom to put out or store personal toiletries, there were no hooks in the bathroom on which to hang wet towels or a bathrobe, the coffee machine didn’t work. Overall, it was fine for the two days I was there. Good location. Regarding the fees, there were way too many and the valet parking fee per night was outrageous.
