My daughter and I spent four wonderful days in Boston and were thrilled to be based out of Encore. The Albee room was perfect- spacious, spotless, cool in every way possible! We could look out over the Boston skyline at night while sipping wine on our balcony. Breakfast were tasty but not overdone- lovely pastries and eggs if you prefer.... More

Reinhold was a friendly and helpful host who let us store our bags on our final day. Tasty breakfast with fresh pastries, perhaps could have done with an extra helping of coffee and not having to pre order breakfast the night previous. The Albee is definitely the nicest room, the balcony was nice to sit on in the morning. The... More

Dear Graham. Thank you so much for your feedback on your recent stay at Encore. I apologize for overlooking offering to an extra helping of coffee. We are aware, that it can be a slight burden on our guests to preorder the breakfast, but it seems to be the only way to provide our guests with fresh pastry every morning... More

Always the best stay in Boston. I came into Boston a couple of weeks ago to see good friends, family and catch a show at the Huntington. I stayed in the Bernstein room. The bed and bath were spotless, comfortable and I felt right at home. The B&B is in a perfect location to see a show or the sights... More

I travelled around US in April 2013 and stayed at several B&Bs and out of all of my stays Reinhold's Encore Bed and Breakfast was by far the best. Great position, great room, great food, great host. It had the personality of a B&B and all the good qualities of a hotel combined. Reinhold was able to offer great advice... More

I once more stayed at Encore when attending a conference in Boston. My room was lovely. I left early in the morning, after a quick cup of coffee and came back in the evening to sleep. That is how to get the most out of a visit. It is nicer than pricey hotels and I like to walk everywhere, and... More

I HIGHLY recommend Encore! It is a charming bed and breakfast in a fabulous location. My fiancé and I had a wonderful stay. Our room (Bernstein) was clean and cozy. I loved the modern furniture and the exposed brick walls. Aveda toiletries were provided - I love little luxuries! - and breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The host, Reinhold, was... More

We stayed at the Encore B&B for three nights and we loved it! The room (Sondheim) was clean and bright, you have many choices for breakfast and Reinhold, the host, is really nice, welcoming and helpful. The building is in a wonderful red bricks district with many good restaurants and bars within 5 min walking and 20 mins (or less)... More

Encore is everything you could hope for and more. On arrival we were met by Reinhold, who is just the most welcoming and generous host.The B and B is on the most beautiful row of brown brick buildings in a very safe neighbourhood. We walked around it at all times and never felt nervous! We stayed in the Albee room... More

Encore was everything I hoped it would be from the reviews I had read on Trip Advisor prior to making my booking. We had booked the Albee room and the view from the balcony was a very welcoming sight having just stepped off a transatlantic flight. What a view! The room itself was extremely comfortable and we particularly loved the... More

What a wonderful review - it covers a lot of the aspects of what we have to offer. We would love to add just one lttle note: All our baked goods come fresh daily from Flour, Boston's best breakfast. We can't imagine not to have this wonderful bakery not in our neighborhood. More
