Nice Hotel, tidy and all the expected comforts of a 4 star hotel. I just felt it was a business hotel and as a tourist for the first time in Boston there are far better located hotels, as we discovered on our many walks. Further out than i thought it would be and not much around it apart form a... More

My family took a trip the week after Christmas. The location of the hotel was perfect. My high school and college aged kids were able to explore city independently while my husband and I could go sightseeing alone. We were close enough to walk to Copley Plaza, Newberry St., Boston Commons, the subway, and great dining options. Parking by the... More

I recently returned from Boston and my 3rd stay at The Back Bay Hotel. I really love this place. It's location is definitely a huge plus point - right in the heart of the Back Bay area, within easy walking distance of some great shopping (Newbury Street, the Prudential Center etc), restaurants and Boston Common, as well as a number...

I loved the back bay hotel. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms big with heated towel racks!! Location and restaurant were great and all of the staff was helpful and friendly. I would return and stay there any time I am back in Boston. More

My travel service was able to locate a room at this hotel, and not knowing anything about it it, other than it being named the "Back Bay Hotel," I was... More

Stayed here over the New Years (First Night). Check in went smoothly. No wait whatsoever. They already assigned us a quiet room on a high floor, which was good as we'd emailed after making the booking requesting this. Room was nice. Some reviews here have said they're quite dated, but I'd more accurately used the description 'classic'. Decoration is old... More

My daughter and I spent 3 very happy days in Boston , staying at the Back Bay Hotel.The hotel is very well located to be within walking distance of the "must see" items on our list. It is 5 or 10 minutes walk from underground stations. The staff at the hotel were warm and friendly, nothing was ever too much... More

We needed a night out in the city, and the Back Bay Hotel didn't disappoint. We had a nice, corner room with King Bed and huge bathroom (I'm not sure if that's the case for all King rooms, but this was great). The location of the hotel is right around the corner from great restaurants and shopping... allowing you to... More
