Sherman's Expert Review

Fronted by one of the most recognizable hotel facades in the city, the Boston Harbor Hotel's arched entranceway is entirely elegant, with the awaiting reception pleasantly devoid of stuffiness. Whether opting for a room with city views or of sailboats gliding by on the harbor, guests may very well bemore tempted to just sit tight and enjoy the luxury of this 230-room waterfront property. Onsite hotspots to encourage lingering include the contemporary American Meritage restaurant, where sophisticated presentation and incredible taste are married on every plate, as well as The Spa at Rowes Wharf, with its heated lap pool and eight types of massages on the menu. Amenities include twice-daily maid service, choice of daily newspaper, and complimentary chauffeur service within Boston.

If you have a chance this is the place to stay.  A short walk to the subway, the north end, the aquarium, well... it's Boston.  It's a short walk to everything.

"service is everything"

I got this room for someone from out of town. I DID NOT want them to bother the guest AT ALL. My credit card was used to hold the room

Didn't stay there but attended the outdoor concert on a Tuesday where they had a cover band playing R&B, funk, and even a little salsa.  If you get the chance you can get front row seating around the wharf while the band plays on a floating barge.... more

As for fancy hotels, BH is right up there.  I've been in nicer, but this place, with its historic context and location is quite unique.  The rooms are cozy as you might expect in downtown Boston, but really, if you're visiting a large city, you... more

I've had the opportunity to stay at BHH on a few recent occasions and have found it to be a pleasant experience. It's more in the vein of over-decorated than the sparse minimalism that is so pervasive in high-end hotels. Though at times the... more
