Great location, very handy to walk all around the Beacon Hill area and just across the road from the red line transit station for exploring further afield. Very friendly and welcoming staff. The room was very comfortable and extremely quiet as it faced the courtyard. We didn’t have breakfast here. The bar was a little pricey but then so is Boston!

Located on Charles Street where it joins Cambridge St, this hotel is the heart of Beacon Hill. Interiors are modern clean, crisp monochrome with alluring collection of art and artefacts for the senses. Great efforts are made from front of house to guest suites to be sustainable and it really enhances the guest impression. The bathroom potions and lotions are a delight for the senses and promote calm and relaxation…bergamot, oud, pink pepper, amber. Amongst the fresh soft luxurious monogramed fluffy white robes and towels are cloths for makeup removal - smart! Room temperature is adjustable and the air quality was superb. Amongst the most comfortable super king bed I’ve slept in, mattress, pillows and linens are all 100% natural and the Egyptian cotton linen is supreme. The Whitney exudes calm sophistication brought through to the pre check in experience by Carol and carried through by James to front of house concierge upon arrival. James looked after our itinerary, reservations, ferry travel options and chauffeur services both for ourselves and visiting guests. This duo are another level delivering the finest exclusive guest experience you’ll find anywhere in the world. Their recommendations made our trip and we are grateful for their kindness to ensure our stay exceeded all our expectations. they bring the wow to the Whitney and the guest experience.

That we had to leave!! We loved the hotel and the guest experience. Everyone should have a James in their life!

the perfect hotel. I visited Boston several times; this is my go-to hotel now. I spent a wonderful 4 nights here. the facility is beautiful, the room spacious, the bed is great and the whole hotel is beautiful. but above all - the staff is super professional and friendly, with the best attitude of helping and making your stay perfect. they are all great and I would like to specifically thank Jacqueline, who helped us resolve some serious issues with our stay in Boston (caused by my mistake regarding the dates of my flight...). can't thank her enough

It is a beautiful hotel with great staff and service. It's in a convenient location for getting around Boston. I would stay here again.

Our room was on the street and I could hear the traffic at peak times. I would request an internal room next time. The car parking was costly and because we had a large car a premium was added so we decided to park elsewhere. There was nowhere out the front to park when we arrived and it was pouring rain. There were four of us with luggage and we found this quite annoying. The concierge should keep the valet area free for people checking in. The car park was full so they parked cars in the valet area. They did try to assist however if felt unprofessional.

We stayed for 4 night and is was exceptional. We had a king room overlooking the river. The room was large, spotless and very comfy. The bed was enormous and the room was really quiet. A bottle of water in the room each night was lovely. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and were always smiling. The location was perfect being in a quiet area but within walking distance of most attractions and a good selection of restaurants. The river being across the road was an added bonus as it was a lovely area for a peaceful walk around.

The only niggle I have is that we booked a Charles view studio king room and my parents booked a classic king room but both rooms seemed to be the same - bit unfair when we paid a few hundred dollars more! Having said that, I would highly recommend this hotel and it will be my first choice when we next visit Boston!

Great location and great hotel. Perfect and impeccable service. The hotel has modern design, comfortable bed, tea and coffee machine in the room. Beautiful sheets and good bath products. It is possible to eat breakfast at extra cost at the restaurant (about 20$). The neighborhood is cost with a pharmacy and convenience store just outside of the hotel. Shops, restaurants and coffees are around the corner. Walking distance to a park and a shopping district. It is just a few steps from a riverside park where it is possible to run.

Nothing I can think of

The attention to detail was outstanding. From plugs/USBs in the most convenient places to the little light in the wardrobe. I found myself always thinking “I really need…” and suddenly there it was! Facilities and amenities were exceptional including bathroom soap/shampoo/conditioner/lotion and facial wipes - everything you could possibly need, service was friendly but not over bearing. The bed was insanely comfortable and the bathroom was luxurious, I especially loved the bath robes!

This is a beautiful stylish boutique hotel in Beacon Hill, Charles Street. Beautiful location and it felt very special following its expandation and renovation of the previous John Jefferies House. It was very comfortable and the attention to detail in the rooms, was very nice. There is an outside courtyard, whilst it was small, it was a bit of a haven in the city!

There was very little we didn’t like, except for the food smell that greeted us everytime we entered the reception, this was due to the integration of the restaurant into the main lobby/reception/ground floor of the hotel. Maybe a better extraction system could be installed?

Top notch hotel with comfortable/clean rooms, on-site restaurant, very small fitness area, and lovely outdoor/garden patio. Excellent location in Beacon Hill is very accessible to all Boston attractions. We walked everywhere, including Cambridge and Somerville across the river, and nothing felt out of reach. MBT/red line stop is literally right outside the front door. Loved having the little snack options (Tate's cookies, apples and granola bars) at the hallway entrance for rooms.

$65 nightly parking fee is high, but I found a more economical option close by

The room was great. Spacious bathroom and fine amenities. The front desk staff were uniformly wonderful -- friendly, polite and informative. The valet service was efficient and necessary. The location was convenient. Overall the hotel gave a sense of luxury.

The restaurant was mediocre. We had both breakfast and dinner there. The food was so-so and the service staff at the restaurant was inattentive. They were not rude or anything like that, but it was just hard to get their attention and requests took a long time to address.
