The XV Beacon Hotel is wonderful. My wife and I stayed for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Great location and great service. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again.

I'll admit that I was a bit disappointed when I first walked into the hotel. The lobby seemed extremely small and the concierge desk and rolling luggage racks made the space seem a bit cluttered, even though it is stylishly decorated. Upon entering our room, however, I was thrilled! It was extremely spacious and the decor was soothing and serene,... More

I think when I booked this reservation I set my expectations too high. After all, it is #4 on Trip Advisor and #1 "Northeast" in Conde Nast's Traveler top 100. It goes without saying that the place is exceptionally decorated and the service and staff try their very best. I also really enjoyed their complimentary car. All of the drivers,... More

Where to start.... I am an interior designer. I was completely floored by this hotel and the level of quality amenities and service. My hubby and I made a trip to explore Boston for a long weekend. We booked the XV Beacon at the recommendation of a friend who used to live in the area. The location of this hotel... More

Everything about this hotel is wonderful! Starting at the reservation process, Kate was extremely helpful and was great to work with. Before we even arrived I was contacted by one of the wonderful concierge staff, Olivia, wondering if there was anything she could do before our arrival. She answered all of my questions and took care of any request I... More

This was our first time in Boston, and when the taxi pulled up to the hotel in a small street near Beacon Hill we were anxious, however when we went inside we were delighted with the luxurious interior and very friendly staff. Our room was beautiful with every detail thought out. The room was large with writing desk, music centre,... More

We chose the XV for a brief couple weekend in Boston. The room was stylish in a contemporary blend of brown and mocca colors, very spacious and quiet. Due to the location your view is constrained by the neighboring office building, thus curtains remain closed and give the room a very dim appearance. We didn't dine at the in house... More

I love a good boutique hotel. This is an excellent one. Charming, unique, comfortable and business traveler friendly, I loved the place! Found completely by random chance I got a room on the 10th floor and although there was no view, I did not care. There were so many fun and interesting features about this hotel you don't really need... More
