The hotel has done some nice modern, sleek upgrades to nonetheless super small rooms. Further, it doesn't change the fact that it is after all an old structure. The bathroom toilet looks like it's going to over-flow any minute. Having stayed at the top floor, the rain outside translated to leakage in the room from the ceiling. The staff never... More

The staff at the Boxer were top notch, from reception, to room service, to the waitstaff at the "Finch" restaurant. The room was very clean and comfortable with gorgeous views of the city. If you decide to eat or even just stop in to the Finch for a drink, I highly recommend the "Million Dollar Mojito" and a game of... More

I made the mistake of booking our room on Priceline (for 2 ppl). The front desk person was wonderful in helping find us a room for the 2 of us. The room was still small, but we made it work. I needed a mini-fridge for medical use. The one they brought us ended up not working. So at midnight I... More

We were so glad to learn of this hotel's discount for patients with appointments at Mass. General Hospital. The location is convenient, the price was much lower than anything else we could find within walking distance, and the hotel itself was very attractive, comfortable, friendly, roomy.

Booked a room at this hotel through hotels.com in advance of a conference I was attending in Boston. It did not bother to tell me until I was on my way to Boston that it had double booked and that it had no rooms (although it was prepaid). As I was traveling, I could not take care of the situation.... More

We traveled to Boston for a few days and were very pleased with our hotel choice! The staff was very accommodating and hospitable. We wanted to make sure we made the most of our short time in the city and had to ask a lot of question~ which the staff graciously answered :) Everyone there made us feel very comfortable,... More

The hotel is well positioned and the rooms, though very small, are tastefully furnished. But reception staff and housekeeping were WAY BELOW standard. Lift was out of order for almost a day ( we were on the fifth floor). Calls to reception went unanswered prompting me to go down.

Dear Mr. OLeary, Thank you for taking the time to review The Boxer on Trip Advisor. I am terribly sorry to hear that your visit took place during the unusual occurrence of the elevator being worked on. We aggressively maintain and inspect the lift so that this is an extremely rare, (but sometimes necessary) circumstance. Thank you for pointing out... More

What a great location - minutes from the TD Garden, the T and Faneuil Hall. Newly renovated rooms are a nice thing and you cannot beat the location. If you are needing a place to stay in that part of town, or if you just want a place to put your head so that you can explore Boston by foot... More

The Bulfinch is conveniently located within downtown Boston and is central to the North End and historic Faneuil Hall area. At the time of my stay it appeared as though renovations were largely complete, however work continued on the lobby flooring, especially by the elevator. Check in was easy and the staff were receptive. Do be aware though, the standard... More

Dear Baystate88, As we have been putting the finishing touches on our completely renovated hotel, we are grateful for the keen eye of our guests. You are correct; the elevator landing was one of the last items to be replaced. The mini-fridges are discreetly housed in each room inside the bedside table. I am sorry to hear it was missing...
