Top Back Bay East Hotel Reviews

Arcadian Hotel

8/10 Good

"Perfectly serviceable hotel, convenient to Longwood hospital area and to Fenway. Parking is available."

Encore Boston Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and well kept overall. The only concern was the iPad stand, which was dirty and left residue when placed on the couch. The spa was gorgeous, and the check-in and check-out process was smooth and efficient. The staff were friendly, professional, and especially helpful when I misplaced my keys."

Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I loved our stay!!! Our room view was awesome every night and morning! You could also sit outside by the harbor and enjoy a walk with the stunning view! My husband called ahead for our anniversary and they did this beautiful presentation on the bed! The bed was comfortable, loved the bathroom lighting. The clam chowder was so lovely. The closeness to the airport was a plus with the shuttle and you didn’t hear any airplane noise inside. We used the shuttle for the train station as well and all of our shuttle drivers were a delight. A special shoutout to CHAD!!!! Chad is the man!! Hotel provided water as well."
