Editorial Review for Charles Street Inn – by Citysearch Staff

The Scene
The Charles Street Inn is housed in an updated 1860s Victorian townhouse. With only nine rooms (spacious ones), the inn retains old-world charm, with decor like marble fireplaces, period lighting, oriental rugs, ornate detailing and either antique or reproduction furnishings. This is the perfect quiet, quaint escape from the city's chain hotels.

The Details
The nine rooms are each named and decorated for a specific Beacon Hill artist. There are also modern amenities including a whirlpool tub, individual climate control, mini-refrigerators, cable TV with VCR, Bose stereo, high-speed DSL Internet connections and coffeemakers.

Editorial content is independent of paid advertisers. Any expenses are paid for by Citysearch.

The Extras

Looking for a quiet, romantic spot for a meal? Head down the street to Torch, where candlelight and copper walls provide atmosphere.

Parking

Valet service must be arranged in advance. Otherwise, the largest and most inexpensive place to park is the Boston Common Garage, located down the street.

My adult daughter and I stayed in two different rooms in nov. of 2006. olmstead room had crusted and stained coverlet on bed, hair under pillow and tv with constant buzzing noise. Self-cleaning jetted tub did not work. Faucet leaked all over vanity and onto floor in bath causing an accident. We were told that the inn knew of the problem and had scheduled a plumber for the next day. We asked to be moved to another room. The Alcott room was dirty, dusty and had trash on bathroom floor. The thermostat did not work and the refrigerator door was difficult to open. Expired cream in fridge had crusted and leaked all over the place. Promised rollaway at no extra charge was inflatable rubber thing on floor. Owner never contacted us after many requests. We were never told how much the second room would be. No itemized final bill was presented upon checkoout nor was one quoted after I returned home after many requests. Owner finally agreed to speak with me on one of my numerous calls. She insinuated that we caused the faucet to leak and said they were charging me extra person charge of $50 per nite for use of “rollaway”. an apology was never given for our inconvenience or pain and suffering. a bottle of wine was offered upon learning of the accident. that would have gone well with the 800mg ibuprofen four times a day. in my opinion, this place deserves no awards for 'best of anything'. shame on them for knowingly putting us in a potentionally unsafe room. they should not be allowed to open their doors. thank goodness for visa. they made it right.

Pros: breakfast is average

Cons: unsafe, unclean, and uncaring proprietor

We stayed for our 10th anniversary and everything was fabulous. We had the Henry James room the bed was high and comfortable. The bathroom was modern as was the bose radio, but everything else had that historic feel right down to the creeky chest of draws. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and the staff was very accommodating. Can't wait to save some money for the next special occasion.

Pros: comfort, historic, accommodating
