The hotel is in a wonderful location on the harbor. It's convenient for both Freedom Trail tourists and financial center business travelers, and easily reached by public transportation (from Logan, take the Blue Line to the Aquarium stop.) I had a junior king suite with a very nice city view. It had a separate living area with a work desk,... More

We attended a Derby Day party at this hotel on May 5th. It was a wonderful location - beautiful accomodations and wonderful, helpful staff. Everyone we met was happy and extremely pleasant. The front desk was extremely helpful in helping our au pair take the children to the Aquarium (a quick stroll from the hotel) and to Quincy Market for... More

Like many seasoned travelers, we tend to stay with someone we know -- in our case, the Marriott hotel group. But on this trip it was our good fortune to stay at the Boston Harbor Hotel. If you wish to be on the Boston harbor -- this is your hotel! The staff -- especially the Concierge staff -- are top-notch.... More

From the time we checked in with the front desk 'til our departure 4 days later, we were impressed with the courteous service by all. The rooms were well appointed and the bathroom nice size with nice amenities. The bed was very comfortable with plenty of pillows. Housekeeping does a great job. The fitness center was outstanding. All the equipment... More

BHH was phenomenal! I am spoiled for any other hotel. The architecture, the staff and the service were outstanding. Though I booked the hotel through a discount travel site, we were upgraded to a harbor view. I was in Boston to help my son move home from college. Needless to say, we had many large bags. The staff was gracious... More

The hotel is wonderful. The staff, room, view are the best around. However, this is the second time we stayed at the hotel where it was warm enough that we needed a fan. The first time for three days, was uncomfortable. They even gave us a free night to be used within the next year. We did this, and again... More

While we are certainly grateful to learn that your impression of the Boston Harbor Hotel at Rowes Wharf has not been adversely affected by room temperature, we are just a little puzzled by the response you were given. The only temperature adjustment in our rooms that cannot be changed is the heat, but the air conditioning can be changed to... More

Dependable service, spectacular harbor views, close to South Station and a large variety of restaurants, the Boston Harbor has one of the finest in-hotel fitness centers, with year-round indoor pool. Great attention to detail, excellent for meetings.

This is an upscale hotel, which we enjoyed for a 1 night get-away, thanks to our bid at a charity auction. Atmosphere is high quality without being stuffy, and staff is friendly and helpful. The furnishings, bed, amenities are all first class. We highly recommend their restaurant Meritage, particularly if you enjoy good wine pairings with your meal. We thoroughly... More
