I arrived in the "Red Eyes" flight when I visited my son in Providence; I know I won't be able to sleep in the flight, therefore I have requested an early check in when I made my reservation. I received the e-mail right away from the customer services of Double Tree Hotel. When I arrived Boston on 02/11, it's a very cold day, when I arrvived the hotel around 9:00 A.M. the front desk gave me a warm welcome as Hilton Honor member, and the room is ready for me.
The room is spacious, bright and clean, after a hot shower and 2 hours sleep, all my energies back and I am ready to meet my son ! Regardless of the location, a good hotel need to consider the need of their clients, this is much important than anything else.
Will stay in this hotel again !

If you're looking for a hotel in the theater district, this should be on the top of your list. It was in walking distance to the theaters and numerous restaurants. The property itself was average. Room was comfortable and clean, although the toilet and sink kept clogging/not draining. There is a Starbucks in the lobby, which was convenient. Valet parking was $40 but at least it wasn't a hassle. Breakfast and internet not included, but that's standard with a doubletree. The doubletree guest suites on the other side of town is nicer, but if you're looking for a hotel in the theater district, you can't beat this one.

The good: The location of this hotel is superb. It is very close to a T stop, Boston Common, and Chinatown, which made exploring the city a breeze.

The size of our room was decent given the price (hotels in Boston tend to be pretty expensive) and had a large bathroom and mini fridge. The accommodations were also very clean. The beds were comfortable but for some reason the bedding was very warm! I had to sleep on top of the sheets.

The bad: This is the second time I've stayed at a Doubletree Hotel and I'm noticing a trend that their level of service leaves something to be desired. Upon arriving I was informed that the only parking they had available was "Valet Parking" - essentially paying $40 a day to have a guy drive my car a few yards in a tiny lot adjacent to the hotel. I informed the front desk that I had paid much less to park the last time I stayed in Boston. The staff member rudely insisted that "I must not have stayed Downtown" and said that the cost was reasonable because I was traveling with others and could split it.

I drove down the block and parked at a garage for $15 a night. Lying to your customers isn't a fantastic way to start their stay, Doubletree.

Awesome beds, just as good as the Heavenly beds at the Westin!
Lots of pillows of various shapes, perfect for meeting my husband and my needs.
No need to travel with a favorite pillow.

Nice and quiet rooms, thick walls, I can't hear my neighbors at all!

Great Value and Prices on rooms. Loved the Doubletree in Portland also.

Clean drinking water in the rooms, thank you!!!!!!!!! I can't tell you how wonderful it was to not have to lug bottles of water up to our room for our 4 night tour of Boston. Cleaning staff was great.

Although, I did request, even weeks in advance, a refrigerator for our room and never got it.
Good thing the food in the area was so great and affordable that I didn't have to worry about going to a grocery store for healthy food. But it would have been nice if the front desk had delivered it since they said they would when we checked in.

Super awesome location, easy to get to everything if your exploring Boston. If you need to eat right away the restaurant is great or the Starbuck's downstairs. But make sure you visit the local coffee shops close by their great (Thinking Cup).

Close to the Trolley for tours, close to the T for subway, easy to get a cab. Close to the theater district and Boston Common. We walked everywhere right from the hotel, super cool!

Late check out, yummy cookies.

Thank you for a wonderful vacation lodging experience.
Cheers!
