4/10 Fair

Not worth the cost.

Air conditioner in room did not work, making it difficult to sleep. Shower was warm but not hot. Could hear people in the hall during the early morning (room description stated sound proofing). Bed and pillows comfortable.

Would stay again

This hotel is great and very well located. That said, can be noisy and also could benefit from mirrors in the room (they were only available in the bathroom).

2/10 Poor

After Paying $750/night We had to (all with luggage in hand) take an elevator up 3 floors, Get off the elevator, Walk across the building roof / terrace, go through the entrance of another building, carry our luggage up to that buildings 4th floor, then repeat on checkout day

Look elsewhere for luxury and amenities

Bathroom privacy screen broken. Bathroom window looks directly onto windows next door. Bathroom drinking cup broken (ceramic cup with hole in it). TV did not work (3 remotes, no channels available). Shower had luke warm water. No 'hot' water available? No hotel lobby - check-in is at the bar/front of the house.

Lovely staff, terrible maintenance

This hotel is in a charming location with a very friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are clean and not cookie-cutter. However, the behind-the-scenes care of the room was utterly terrible. The shower temperature controls were broken, so it was a scalding hot shower or nothing. When we reported this to the staff, we learned that the engineer knew about the problem and was awaiting a part. We were offered a new room but it would have been smaller. Instead, they turned down the setting inside the valve and left it at lukewarm. The bed was made with a flat sheet over the mattress, not even tucked in, and then a duvet, and then a top sheet OVER the duvet. It boggles the mind. To make matters worse, though we left the room from 10-3, no one made up the room at all between nights. The TV remote had no batteries. They provided new ones, but then the TV didn’t play any channels or work with casting from our phones, which the screen said you could do. There are no mirrors except in the bathroom. There is no vent in the bathroom, so the scalding showers filled the whole room with steam. There were a million safety features on the ceiling that blinked all night like an airport runway. Some kind of elevator or door or dumbwaiter, which sounded like a garage door rattling, open and closed from the early morning on. For the nearly $500/night we paid (including taxes) this was a very disappointing experience. I can’t recommend staying there. Again, the front of house staff was lovely.
Alex, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean room but small. No where to put clothes away. Loud noises of furniture being scooted around above us. Shower spigot too tall to adjust. Hangers too high to use.
Nancy L, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Beacon Hill is a nice little boutique hotel in a great area. Busy street and very close to the parks. The room was small, but well appointed. Very nice for a solo traveler or couple. There was a fair amount of hall noise and mechanical sounds, though not sure of the source.
Claude, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent Space in Boston

Overall, I enjoyed our stay at this spot. The location can’t be beat. It’s right by Boston Common (for parking) and nestled on Charles Street, close to attractions but far enough away that you can escape the hustle and bustle at night. The staff were friendlyish but often unavailable (another guest said her power went out and no one was around to help). Room could have been cleaner. There were stains on the sheet and areas in the room that looked like they hadn’t been touched in awhile. The elevator broke down while we were there, which wasn’t the end of the world, but wouldn’t have been pleasant if we had to schlep all our luggage up the stairs. We were near the upstairs terrace and it got really noisy at night. We ended up using a sound machine to drown out the noise. It’d be nice to offer small amenities, as well - my friend forgot a toothbrush and they didn’t have any on hand. It’s a cute space but shows wear - hoping they keep up maintenance bc it has the potential to be great.

This was the most quaint little boutique hotel! The decor was fabulous! The breakfast in the morning was great too! Comfy beds and pillows and towels! Great location to everything. Staff were super friendly
Lindsay, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely and little in the heart of Boston. Took some getting used to that the check-in desk was the same as the check in for the restaurant/bar, For sure to be back for a future stay.
Peter, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a cute little hotel located in a central area making it easy to walk to see many places! It’s an extremely tiny room, so not ideal if you plan to spend any time in your room other than sleeping. We don’t stay put, so it was ideal for us!
