I was in Boston for business. I got the room on Hotwire. I paid $169. The hotel is beautiful and the room was perfect. No complaints about the room. The staff was very nice. My only complaint about the property is that it is a 2-story 150 room property. My room was on the second floor with a view of the harbor. Unfortunately, when I opened the window, I looked directly into a "yacht" where the owner was having breakfast. No privacy. I had to keep my shades closed for most of the time. Also, the only way to get from the Hotel to the Spa is a brief walk outside. Not a problem, except when it is 8 degrees out and you are wearing shorts. The work-out facility was very good.
The location of the hotel was well situated for the North End, but not anywhere near where I needed to be. It is essentially in a mixed use residential section of town. A pretty easy and short walk to the North end but, on a cold dark winter night, not the most pleasant walk in the city.

Very modern hotel with some subtle conveniences.

Great phone, good and large screen. Excellent comfortable shower. WC is in a separate compartment, opaque glass door has a big gap at the bottom. Superb bed.

Walking distance to many restaurants, museums, attractions, interesting sights.

Valet parking is woefully expensive, at $42 per day, and probably more expensive than the rental!

Rooms on the ground floor have views on the corridor around the hotel, so you share your windows with the passers-by.

Other Fairmonts (Beijing for modern, Banff for classical) are nicer.

I love staying here whenever i come on business. I stay almost once a month and they are great there. The rooms are very nice and new, the service and check-in is a breeze, and the old fashioned cocktails in the lounge are the best. Plus it is walking distance to all the wonderful north end restaurants.

What a nice hotel- it is in a perfect location, right near the north end. The rooms were clean & spacious. The staff was FABULOUS! Also the shower was has hot water!!! The beds were super comfortable and the view of the harbor was fantastic. My husband & I are looking forward to staying there again in the future!
