Top South Boston Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Downtown/Seaport

10/10 Excellent

"Great room!!"

Hyatt Place Boston/Seaport District

10/10 Excellent

"They had everything you could want for breakfast. We thought it was excellent! Our room was perfect. It was very clean! The location was great. It was close to the cruise port.They also had excellent food at the restaurant usually we don’t find grass fed burgers anywhere, but they had them. We would definitely stay here again!"

Hilton Boston Back Bay

10/10 Excellent

"This Hilton is going to be our new go-to in Boston. We’ve stayed at some of the other hotels around there (Sheraton, Weston), but this is our favorite. Why? 1. Nice and helpful staff, who are empowered to improve the guest experience. We were upgraded us to a lovely room with a curved window and view of Boston, and the staff was able to give us a later checkout. 2. Recently renovated. Beautiful gym! A/C system in the rooms is SILENT. Note: pool is still being renovated. 3. Great location. Walkable to Fenway, Pru mall, Copley square, Newbury st. 4. Small hotel, compared to the Sheraton across the street which is a conference hotel and has an impersonal feel. Highly recommend!"

Cambria Hotel Boston Downtown - Seaport

8/10 Good

"I stayed at the Cambria Hotel for one night after a whirlwind tour of New England. Check-in was quick and easy, and the front desk clerk was friendly, welcoming, and efficient. The valet area is very small, accommodating only a few cars. Valet parking cost about $61 for 24 hours, which felt expensive, but it included in-and-out privileges and was more convenient than parking in a garage several blocks away. The hotel lobby is modern and inviting, and my room on the seventh floor reflected the same contemporary style. While my view overlooked a nearby condo building, the room itself was clean, comfortable, and well-designed. The bed was comfortable, the shower was excellent, and the blackout shades made it easy to get a good night's sleep. Amenities included shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, coffee, and a mini wine fridge. Wi-Fi was easy to access, and the air conditioning worked well. The complimentary breakfast was the weakest part of the stay. The oatmeal was overly thick, the bread was dry, and the eggs lacked flavor. The yogurt was decent, and I appreciated having tea and honey available. What stood out most was the staff's friendliness and helpfulness. They even held my luggage after checkout while I explored Boston. The hotel is also conveniently located near restaurants and a Circle K. Overall, I had a very good stay. The expensive valet parking and underwhelming breakfast kept it from being a perfect experience, but the comfortable accommodations."
