New Hotels in Boston

"citizenM feels a bit more fun and welcoming compared to other modern hotels. The rooms are still on the smaller side, but they’re super comfortable, especially the big bed that takes up most of the space. Everything is controlled with an iPad—lights, blinds, TV—which is actually pretty cool once you get used to it. The lobby areas are a highlight, with lots of space to hang out, work, or grab a drink. It feels more social than your typical hotel. Overall, it’s a great pick if you like a stylish, relaxed vibe without spending too much."

"Having lived in Boston for over a decade, this was my first time returning and staying in a hotel for a business trip. Overall, I really liked this hotel, but it's not for everyone. **Pros** First, the location is excellent, right next to Newbury Street, which means easy access to dining and shopping. The Green Line subway station is also nearby, making it convenient to get to various parts of the city. Second, the room was very clean and relatively new. The design style is modern and minimalist, making for a refreshing stay. **Cons** The most obvious drawback, and a common characteristic of all CitizenM hotels, is that the rooms are incredibly small – very, very tiny. There's barely any space for large luggage. Also, the bed is designed right next to the window. If two people are staying together, I wouldn't recommend it, as you'd have to 'climb over' the other person if you need to get up at night, which can be quite inconvenient. Another downside is that it lacks many basic amenities found in traditional hotels, such as an in-room coffee machine, coffee, electric kettle, slippers, or bathrobes. Even items like an iron aren't available in every room; you have to use them in a common area. If these amenities are important to you, there are many other more comprehensive and comfortable options in the vicinity. In summary, if you're traveling solo, don't need much space, aren't particular about extra amenities, and appreciate a quiet, clean, and conveniently located hotel, then this is a great choice."

"YOTEL is honestly a pretty cool place if you’re into modern, no-frills stays. The rooms are small, but they’re designed really smartly, so it doesn’t feel too cramped. I liked the adjustable bed and the overall vibe—it feels kind of futuristic. The self-check-in is quick, though it can feel a bit impersonal. It’s in a great location, which makes getting around easy. That said, it’s probably not the best if you want lots of space or a super cozy feel. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a short, convenient stay."
