4-Star Hotels in Massachusetts, United States

A true ”home away from home” for a new international student. As an international student newly arrived in the U.S., Hilton Boston Back Bay was my very first landing spot. I have been staying here for two weeks while navigating the difficult process of apartment hunting—which has been incredibly stressful due to my lack of U.S. credit history and language barriers. However, this hotel truly gave me a sense of ”home” during this challenging transition. Even though my English is not perfect, every staff member I encountered was incredibly patient, friendly, and accommodating. Their kindness made a huge difference in my first few weeks in Boston. I am deeply grateful for the warm welcome!

Very friendly staff, very clean hotel, nicely renovated, has a shop beside the reception but abit pricey. Overall, very good experince. Strongly recommend

I found my room extremely clean and welcoming. Having the lights on when I entered the room was a nice touch. Everything was in working order and very organized. I would definitely book another stay!!

The Boston Marriott Cambridge was great for my quick one-night in Boston. The location was great and convenient to the public transportation and fairly close to the airport. I was even able to check in early and the staff was very accommodating to my early arrival. I would definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Boston. Clean, convenient, and very comfortable.

Is an old hotel with full of character. Lift is a mixed of modern and old. It is well situated, across the road is a huge supermarket. Amtrak train station is just 5 mins walk away. Room is a little small and the Aircon cannot be controlled. Shower water pressure is good. Best thing I like is a big kitchen with microwave and coffee machine. Even a 5 star hotel do not have this. Checked in and out is super easy. Overall I like this hotel.

The hotel is very big. It feels like it is on a hill. The natural environment is very good. But there are no shopping stores around. You can only eat here. There are many people on vacation. The deposit was paid with an overseas card. The refund is very slow. It is best to pay in cash.

Second time staying here, quite like the vibe of the hotel. By the river side of Boston river, quite quiet during the day, but also a popular gathering place at night and on weekends. So you get both the quietness and the crowd. The room is decent sizes, nothing to complain about. And the services are also reasonable. Surely would be my choice if I come back to Boston again. Oh forgot to mention, get a river view room, it's surely worth the price difference.

Convenient hotel, efficient check-in, had an excellent and quiet sleep between 2 flights. Even possible to walk from the international terminal E (all covered walkways). Took the free hotel shuttle in the morning.

The hotel charges a $300 security deposit and an automatic 18% gratuity on any food/drink purchased. A bowl of oatmeal and coffee was $23. There is no breakfast buffet available. The rooms are tiny and designed very much like a cruise ship cabin, complete with bunk beds! There are no closets, drawers or counter space in the room and only 6 hangers (to hang clothes where?) I had to use the ironing board for toiletries. The bathroom is separated from the bedroom only by a curtain. (I wonder how couples feel about each other after staying there?) The only window is a floor-to-ceiling window in the bathroom so you can flash nearby shoppers as you step out of the shower. The heated towel rack in not within arm's reach of the shower and featured hard and frayed towels. The room featured a large TV that was surrounded by LED lights. No obvious switch turned off said LEDs, but apparently the round rainbow-colored emblem in one of the built-in cubby holes turned it off. On the plus side, the hotel is a half-mile from the Boston Convention Center. Also, travelers can take the Silver Line bus from Logan Airport to South Station (or one stop short of the station to this hotel) for FREE! The one-way trip back to Logan Airport is $2.40. There is a rooftop bar that features a nice city view.

The decoration of this hotel is very colorful. To be honest, it feels a bit like a motel. But the room is average and the accommodation feels pretty good. But the bad experience was that when we opened the door to the room we were given, there was someone inside! When I went back to the counter to tell her, I didn't even say sorry. I told her that I had ordered it two months ago, and she replied that many people had already ordered it! Very dumbfounded! Fortunately, the solution was quite positive. They helped us change to an executive suite and added an extra bed in the living room.
