Sherman's Expert Review

The historical Bostonian façade dating back to late nineteenth century might fool you, but step inside the Charlesmark Hotel and you’ll discover classic modernist decor and lots of high-tech goodies. The hotel’s stellar central Back Bay location at Copley Square is a great sellingmore point, as is the mod Charlesmark Lounge, which is popular among guests and locals alike for its outdoor patio and cocktails.The 40 guest rooms feature custom-made oak furniture, designed to enhance functionality in the compact spaces. Those who need room to stretch out should steer clear of the standard rooms which at just 144 square feet only have room for a double bed. Larger rooms feature queen-size beds as well as a small sofa, which pulls out into a twin bed. Bathrooms are decked out with imported Italian ceramic tiles and custom built vanities – music lovers will especially appreciate the bathroom stereo speakers.

My room was very small and lacked a table and chair which I found very inconvenient. Be sure you don't get a room over the alley where

Hipsters and romantics who'd rather spend their cash on a great meal than a hotel bill have put this skinny little boutique hotel on the map. You can typically grab a room for around $139, an amazing value considering the Copley Square location: the... more

In an excellent location overlooking the Boston Marathon finish line, the Charlesmark has a boutique feel and great prices. It's both luxurious and -- literally, not figuratively -- no frills. The sleek, contemporary design uses custom furnishings... more

The Charlesmark Louge is very euro without the trash. The red tall bar stools are the focal point of the ambiance. Drinks are on the pricey side, but are delicious. The food menu is from the Thai restaurant next door, Bangkok Blue, so you won't be... more

I had a girlie after-work drink with a friend on a summer evening at the Charlesmark.  I was afraid it would be mobbed with tourists, but it was actually almost empty (maybe because I was drinking on a Monday).  The decor was nice, with cushy... more

this place has potential with all the comfortable lounging areas available but i went there briefly on a friday night and congregated at the bar early before heading elsewhere, so there was nothing remarkable about the visit. An older crowd,... more

I went to the Charlesmark recently on warm Friday evening with my fiance and another couple.  The patio was what drew us in.  Although it was full, it was not crowded.  A woman greeted us at the front desk, which also seemed to serve as a hostess... more
