Fairmont Copley Plaza: An Albanian Historic Landmark    Check Rates

    While under the auspices of the Ottoman Empire, the Pan-Albanian Federation of America, or Vatra (the Hearth), was formed in Boston, becoming one of the most influential voices in the movement for Albanian independence. It was led by Fan S. Noli & Faik Konitza, the greatest figure of Albanian culture in the early decades of the twentieth century. Its newspaper, the Dielli, became Vatra’s main organ for fostering Albanian nationalism & is still in existence today.

    On November 28, 1912, Albania was liberated from Ottoman control after Turkey was defeated by the Balkan Allies during the First Balkan War. However, at the onset of World War I, Albania was overrun by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. While under occupation, the Albanian Federation of America, Vatra, met at the Copley Plaza Hotel, located at 138 Saint James Avenue, & served as the defacto government in exile of Albania.

    • Copey Plaza - This large hotel occupies one of Boston's nicest squares. Located near Newbury Street, THE major shopping area of Boston, this complex offers two excellent restaurants: Copley's and the less formal Plaza Bar. Rooms are large and comfortable, staff is most accomodating, ambience is superbe.

    Founded in 1912, this is a grand place that has been updated fairly well for modern needs while keeping the charm and style of its early 20th century roots.

    Didn't stay here (can only stay one place at a time), but loved the public spaces. Worth a walk through.

    Opened in 1912. Constructed on the original site of The Museum of Fine Arts, the hotel was designed by Henry Janeway Hardenberghm, who also designed The Plaza in New York. The sister hotels share the same double 'P' insignia seen throughout both properties.

    • WOW!!! as you walk into the lobby, you are transported in time, to the old hollywood movies full of glamour, not the knid of hotel that somebody would build in 2006... The hotel is from the 1880.

    extremely nice hotel, old fashion luxury. Very big and confortable rooms, all are suites. The bed is the newest thing on the rooms, very confortable.

    Fairmont Copley Plaza: Exceedingly Lousy Service & Food    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • By bostontravler on September 27, 2007
    • I took my husband here for his 50th. Booked the special Sports Themed Suite as he is a big Red Sox fan. Previous occupant apparently didn't want to check out, so husband and I got shuffled off to another room with not a word of explanation. Until we complained, Of course!! Then the manager LIED to us about the current guest being "ill." I understand that I am a nobody, but I don't need to be reminded of it, especially by some punk hotel manager, and not when I am paying $550/night for a hotel room. Somebody got "superior" customer service, but it sure wasn't my husband or his very irate wife. Our 2-day holiday trip to Boston was cancelled because we couldn't get another hotel in the area (I refused to stay the second night at the Fairmont). Thanks for nothing, Fairmont Copley. You stink!

    Fairmont Copley Plaza: I wouldn't recommend compared to other Hotels.    Check Rates

    • I was a server there for one day, then I just walked out, cuz I was so grossed out at their facility! The kitchen is utterly filthy. I expected roaches. And the Management wasn't oo organized. I would walk by to go to school, and I had a valet sexually harrass me until I told the manager and he got fired. The lobby looks utterly beautiful though. But behind the scenws was nmot cool at alll. The banquet room is too small compared to other facilites I 've seen. Comparte prices if you hope to rent.

    Only stayed here one night, very plush
    The loby is something to see, the ceiling is painted like the sky and there seems like ther e is gold everywhere.

    The oak bar is very dark with wood everywhere, they have a lovely grand piano there which is played some afternoons and evenings. Drinks are a little expensive as you would expect. Never ate there so don't know what the food is like

    Rooms are massive with a separate corridor down to the bathroom which is marble. The beds are massive you can lie at the edge put your arm across and still not reach the middle.

    Good service
    Beautiful loby
