under construction

can you imagine the noices??? do I need to go further? not a nice experience AT ALL! the lobby was under construction and so was the outside... of course, we had people working outside of our room at all times, and we suffer the "I'm sorry for the inconvenience" sign... like that is goin to change anything! just close while you do construction work! It's not MY fault!

I'm sure somebody else will benefit from my pain... I just don't think I'll stay there again (the room was SMALL, there is no light anywhere in the room OR the lobby, it just looks like an old and sad hotel... I hope the remodelations takes them somewhere.. I just don't think I'll be there to see it... even if we stay in boston at least once a month)

Olde Worlde New England Stay

From the moment you drive up to the entrance you know that you are stepping back into a more genteel time and place.
This hotel is elegant and the staff is exceptional.Can't find a Ghost tour because it is only 30 degrees and they only do it in the summer? Ask Joseph the concierge. Within miinutes you have a date to stroll through Boston's oldest cemeteries.

Unique Quality: The beds re sooooooooooooo comfortalbel. Lots and lots of wonderful pillows. Fabulous amenities.
Make sure uyou join the prefferred customer program brefore booking your stay. That gets you free WiFi access instead otf the fee that is normally charged. Also you have special beverages, snacks and papers sent to your room.
Don't forget to have dinner at the World Famous Parker House. JFK proposed to Jackie at table 40.
Service and food is the best.

A great location and fascinating history

I stayed here for one night in 2006. My friend and I had just returned from staying in a Parisian youth hostel, so the accomodations were like heaven. The pillows were so fluffy! The service was good as well, and the close location to everything made a trip to dinner very easy. Our room was a bit small, but the comfort of the hotel makes up for it.

Unique Quality: Historical, comfortable, great location, haunted?, It's where they invented parker house rolls and the Boston cream pie.

Best of Boston

If you are looking for Historical Luxury, then this is the place for you. Nestled in between the graves of famous patriots, you will find luxury at an affordable price.

Unique Quality: The large, well appointed rooms are some of the best I have seen, and the workout facilities are second to none.

Omni Parker House

The history itself behind the Omni Parker hotel is amazing. Ho Chi Minh worked there while he was attending college at Harvard. Malcolm X also worked there and the Bosom Crème Pie was invented in the kitchen where celebrity chef Emeril got his start. “Back in the day” Charles Dickens was a guest, as was Ralph Waldo Emerson and some of his literary friends. It’s a beautiful hotel anyway and in a wonderful location. I’ve been in three different bedrooms and none of them were the same. Supposedly there are 50 bedroom varieties, if you will. The rooms, while on the European small side, are tastefully decorated and elegant. It’s in a fantastic location-literally steps from Government Crossing and the State House. You can walk to the Common, to downtown crossing, and even to Fanueil Hall with no problem. Sitting in the lobby and looking out the window is a nice way to people-watch, too.

Perfect Location for Getting to T Stops

I would definetly recommend this hotel to anyone and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The hotel itself was not spectacular, but it was very efficient and the European rooms were larger that most that I have seen (but still small if you are used to non-european style rooms). The best thing about this hotel was the location - it was within comfortable walking distance to the Blue and Green T lines which made it very convenient.

Unique Quality: Right on the Freedom Trail

One Room is Britney Spears Childhood Bedroom! See!

I had an interivew there, I did'nt stay, but I can tell you it's very artistic, not stuffy, or fancy like the other hotels in town. The lounga has cool counches and low lighting, very euro-cool. I saw alot of red around..lovely! But the location is like WHAT THE HELL. IT's around the corner of bad boston, so I saw litter, homeless folk and big puddles of grime around that area. Not a hotel where you feel completely glamourous when you walk right out. a suggestion is to take a taxi or car, but the subway is just around the corner. Shopping is not too close either.

Ho Chi Minh was a Bell Hop here!

When we were looking at possible hotel accommodation in Boston I was browsing through a Frommers guide & when I saw that Ho Chi Minh had supposedly been a bell hop here I thought we might stay here. Then I saw it was in School Street then we as then both school teachers at that time just had to stay there.

Unique Quality: Even though it was apparent that the hotel had seen better days I still really like the beautiful timber throughout both the lobby & also other parts of the hotel.

Service was very good. Our room was very nicely appointed & we were very pleased with it as more than comfortable place to rest our weary legs after a day's trudging though the deep snow lining the streets & onto the sidewalks

We enjoyed our stay there and would definitely consider staying there again on a return trip that we would both love to do to this beautiful city

Any suggestion ~ Hotel in Boston?

by caelle

Hi,
I and my friends, (4 of us) are planning to spend a weekend in Boston next week.
Any suggestion for hotel in Boston downtown that is near Quenchy Market? Our budget is around 120-150 with parking if possible. Any suggestions?

Thanks!!

My choice of hotels is the Omni Parker House ( www.parkerhouseboston.com ). Should be in your budget.

Located on the Freedom Trail. You can walk easily to Fanuiel Hall / Quincy Market.
