“Awesome Weekend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

I stayed here at the Back Bay Hilton and loved it! I was attending a dental conference and wanted to stay near the conference site and near the action of the city. This place was centrally located to everything......shops, dining, tours, ect. I had the best time too. The staff was extremely courteous, the room was totally modern and super clean. I used the gym and pool too. The parking was on site. Also, the best shops are right outside. I had to buy gifts and my favorite store Saks Fifth Ave was a minute walk. Then, I was off to eat at the best street, Newberry. I will def stay again. I hope this all helps and wish all who stay here the same pleasant and wonderful experience I enjoyed.

“Conveniently located, sound hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

This hotel was very modern and up-to-date. The staff were friendly and helpful, so the service was excellent. And the business center was very nice. However, the room did not have a microwave or refrigerator. And parking was $41 for over night parking.

I am very happy to read your comments about your recent stay and glad that you found the location and service levels of our hotel to your satisfaction. However, I understand that you were unhappy with the parking charges and while we do charge for parking we try to stay as competitive as possible within the downtown Boston area.

“Great hotel in a great location!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

I am a Diamond Level member in Hilton program, so I always stay at Hilton when I can. This is a great property in a really great location. Very close to many restaurants and shopping and highly recommend. Not quite the level of the Intercontinental, but really great. Quiet bar, but great service and great food. The Club Sandwhich for lunch is awesome!

“Well-located, sensible hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

I liked 1) the location which is near Newberry Street and a good sized mall 2) the hotel room is reasonably up to date, quite modern 3) reasonable gym equipment 4) staff - quite friendly and helpful

I didn't like 1) the pillows, which were very uncomfortable 2) the standard buffet was a bit disappointing

All in all - a sound hotel choice

“Perfect hotel, excellent as always...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

We have stayed in this hotel many times over the years and are happy to report that they continue to upgrade, redecorate and live up to the high standards we have come to expect.

We are near a daughter who is a student at The Boston Conservatory here, and close to another who works in Boston.

This hotel is staffed by professionals and meets all of our needs. The rooms are a good size, well-appointed, exceptionally clean and quiet. Their showers are amazing for the city! We got a high floor and had a beautiful view.

We were able to walk everywhere we needed to be from here, which is a big plus in Boston (Back Bay and Fenway neighborhoods). We met our adult children for meals, grabbed some needed supplies at a pharmacy, and just enjoyed our stay.

The Hynes Convention Center is a very short walk as is the Prudential Center (across one street, then indoors).

I highly recommend this hotel; it is the best these neighborhoods in Boston has to offer.

Room Tip: Higher floors are better for both quiet and views - good city views from most.
