Joan C wrote a review 25 Jan
Cleanest rooms, comfiest beds, best staff!! Had such a memorable experience during my stay. Every single person who was working was so helpful and friendly! Arbon was a rockstar at the door, Olivia & Cassie were the sweetest behind the bar and suggested the best restaurants, and Aliya knocked it out of the park explaining to me everything the hotel has to offer! My husband and I will be back to Boston soon and the Godfrey is our knew go-to hotel!

The Godfrey was the perfect choice for our family vacation. Attentive staff, clean and contemporary rooms in a top notch location. Loved all the little extras (think hot chocolate in the lobby, room snacks and bottled water).

Picked for location. Check in was an upsetting experience that could have easily been avoided. Room was clean and tidy, but lacked details of a hotel this size and price. Unsafe overloaded strip plug on show, no second robe despite being a couple, awful pillows.

Great stay, and walked to dinner from the hotel. Staff was very courteous and helpful. View from room wasn’t much, but we didn’t stay there for the view. Value was good, and if we were going to a show in the Theatre District we’d stay at The Godfrey again in a heartbeat!

Excellent location with the bonus of having a coffee shop and restaurant adjacent to the lobby. Service was great and staff was extremely friendly. It was the small touches that really made it feel boutique like.

I booked this hotel as part of a work stay because it was close to downtown. I ended up staying over a week, and I truly enjoyed so much of what the Godfrey offers. First, the location can't be beat in downtown Boston. It's right by the Downtown Crossing subway stop, which you can use to get just about anywhere in the city with few transfers. There are a cityful of restaurants around, and the hotel itself is connected to George Howell (coffee) and Ruka (Peruvian-Japanese). I've tried George Howell, and I'm told by people who know more about coffee than I do that it is very good. I haven't made it to Ruka yet, but I'm intrigued. Next, the hotel perks themselves are fantastic. While they don't offer a continental breakfast, there are breakfast restaurants everywhere, and your room key gets you a small discount. The hotel was giving each guest the opportunity to borrow a fun instant camera for each day of the stay as well, so I had fun playing with that. The rooms are small, which I don't mind, as it was only myself and my partner in the room. There's a nice wardrobe with an iron in the room, as well as a coffee machine, and an assortment of really nice snacks that get replenished when your room gets cleaned. The TV connects to Netflix, so you can keep binging on a nice, large screen. My only tiny gripe about the room is that the shower does not have a curtain or full door, so water does splash onto the bathroom floor. It's not a big deal, but I did step on the wet bathmat in my socks and frowned slightly. Otherwise, I smiled for the duration of my stay! …

Wonderful Hotel. In an ideal location that places downtown Boston at your feet. Staff from the door person to checkin staff and cleaning staff all were amazing. The room was ultra clean and had the right amenities. I have no problem recommending this wonderful hotel to others.

Great hotel with incredible hospitality. Coffee Shop next door and many restaurants within walking distance. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Rooms are compact, but well curated. The lobby is very 80's and elegant. Rooms were quiet and can be made dark.

I highly recommend this hotel. The rooms are clean, the staff is very friendly and highly accommodating, and the location is fantastic. I did not eat in the restaurant but I had a couple cocktails and the vibe was as great as the bartender. Literally nothing could have been better

Besides the price, the staff was friendly and assisted me with my Lyft reservation. The location was convenient to the metro and visiting any place for business meeting was no problem. I had a comfortable stay.
