The elegant crystal chandelier gives the illusion of a very swanky hotel. The dark dingy hallways tell a different story. The room was a matchbox in dire need of updating.

Reviewed by Samantha Z. of T of CT on Apr-2007 Stayed at the Property - Apr-2007 From what I read the hotel must have been redone. The lobby was stunning, some of the service was not as up to standard as you would expect, but alot of the charisma was great. My boyfriend and I had stayed only one night, the room was smaller than expected (I felt like I was on the Titanic though) I had troubles with no remote in the room, no room service menu, and our phone didn't quite work. The elevators we're kind of screwy at night, and didnt work well, however my boyfriend and I got to go in the service elevator! (I thought it was neat :) )

Reviewed by Paul H. of on Feb-2007 Stayed at the Property - Feb-2007 My wife and I rate it as the worst of bad hotels in the US and in over 50 other countries. The front desk staff repeatedly misled us and acknowledged misleading us (and did little to rectify errors). We tried being accommodating and ended up unable to sleep in a ?parlor suite??due to very short sofa beds with exposed springs and huge, hard pillows. The hotel was filthy. When the pizza slices on the lobby floor were pointed out only a superficial job cleaning job was done. The rooms are EXTREMELY small and unclean even for an older hotel.

Reviewed by Dawne W. of Brooklyn of OH USA on May-2007 Stayed at the Property - May-2007 When you first walk into the hotel, you get the feeling that you do not belong there. The elegant crystal chandelier gives the illusion of a very swanky hotel. The dark dingy hallways tell a different story. The room was a matchbox in dire need of updating. The air-conditioner did not work and the walls were paper thin. The only saving grace was the location and the dual shower head with great water pressure. We had a great time in Boston and we did not let the hotel ruin our time. The Back Bay area is beautiful.

The lobby was stunning, some of the service was not as up to standard as you would expect, but alot of the charisma was great. My boyfriend and I had stayed only one night, the room was smaller than expected (I felt like I was on the Titanic though) I had troubles with no remote in the room, no room service menu, and our phone didn't quite work.

Our air didn't work quite right, but the outside temp was pretty cool. It was also a little loud outside our door but we were close to the elevator. Everyone was so nice. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to stay downtown but doesn't want to spend a fortune.

The elegant crystal chandelier gives the illusion of a very swanky hotel. The dark dingy hallways tell a different story. The room was a matchbox in dire need of updating. The air-conditioner did not work and the walls were paper thin. The only saving grace was the location and the dual shower head with great water pressure. We had a great time in Boston and we did not let the hotel ruin our time. The Back Bay area is beautiful.

Reviewed by Lisa H. of Cleveland of OH USA on Apr-2007 Stayed at the Property - Apr-2007 We loved the Park Towers. We'd stay here again and are looking forward to coming back to Boston to do so. Subway is close by and the concierge didn't fail us on restaurant recommendations. Freedom Trail, Fenway Park, etc. all within either a walk or a T-ride a way. Can't wait to go back.

The lobby was stunning, some of the service was not as up to standard as you would expect, but alot of the charisma was great. My boyfriend and I had stayed only one night, the room was smaller than expected (I felt like I was on the Titanic though) I had troubles with no remote in the room, no room service menu, and our phone didn't quite work. The elevators we're kind of screwy at night, and didnt work well, however my boyfriend and I got to go in the service elevator! (I thought it was neat :) )

"Get dressed, get ready to evacuate your floor". Five minutes later "False alarm". Both nights. Many were going to ignore the next one - not good. At 9am, only two out of 6 elevators were working to move people for three conventions, businessmen and tourists. Many were stuck on each floor, waiting to get to their meetings and airport.

Reviewed by Eric T. of on Nov-2006 Stayed at the Property - Nov-2006 Stay on the 15th floor (tower level or concierge lever) for a nice lounge with plasma TV's and free breakfast and evening appitizers. Go to Legal Seafood across the street and to McCormick and Schmidts in the hotel. Close to Copley Square, downtown, Chinatown, Beacon Hill (Cheers)--you can walk anywhere from here. The room was nice. You are in downtown, so expect to hear traffic.

Reviewed by Reid D. of VA USA on Oct-2006 Stayed at the Property - Oct-2006 We had a great experience. Location is fantastic, so convenient. The employee who helped us, ?, was wonderful. Excellent customer service. Our apartment did have a problem the first night in that the air conditioning did not work but maintenance fixed it immediately. The apartment was clean, size was enough (economy? 1 full size bed)and the price was better than anything we could find

Reviewed by Andrea M. of Manassas of VA USA on Sep-2006 Stayed at the Property - Sep-2006 Both nights we stayed here, the fire alarm went off between 4:30 - 5am. "Get dressed, get ready to evacuate your floor". Five minutes later "False alarm". Both nights. Many were going to ignore the next one - not good. At 9am, only two out of 6 elevators were working to move people for three conventions, businessmen and tourists. Many were stuck on each floor, waiting to get to their meetings and airport.

Reviewed by Barry J. of Clayton of NC US on Jan-2007 Stayed at the Property - Jan-2007 My trip to Boston was to be with my brother who is currently going through Chemo at a local hospital, so my visit was not for "fun". However, staying in this hotel made "coming home" at night very comfortable and a pleasure. Everything from the food/bar and the room was a great experience.
