Such a cool hotel!!
by ryo89harvard11 at Citysearch
I've stayed here for a month when I was moving, and my new home was getting ready- and I didn't get bored!!
Although it's small hotel, there's so much to do because of the location (right in the middle of Kenmore Square), and the elegant atmosphere of the hotel is really nice.
I think that all the rooms are like suites, and the high ceilings and decors were magnificent.
The Voss waters and the cookies they give u in the rooms are really good!!
- Pros: Elegance
Great experience overall!

Whenever I visit Boston in the future, if it is at all possible, I will stay here.
They treated me like an honored guest, took care of everything I needed with courtesy and professionalism, gave great advice on where to eat. Everything felt elegant, and I always sleep poorly when out of town on business...but I slept wonderfully.
I'm sorry the other reviewer here didn't know how to rate the restaurant inside the hotel, and instead put the restaurant review here. I know it's difficult.
- Pros: Exceptional service, beautiful rooms, convenenient to everything I needed
- Cons: pricey, but you get what you pay for
Pathetic and over priced

The Great Bay is one of the worst restaurants around.
Watery "gazpacho" cucumber floating in a bowl of water, over salted calamari, dreadful
