    Beautiful place

    Reviewed By HMM1Great hotel in a beautiful place. Very well managed. Very clean. Rooms and beds are comfortable. Lots of beautiful hikes and walks nearby. Good restaurant on site. My only complaint is that if it rains there is not much to do: the pool is too small for swimming and a ping pong table would be nice as well as a hot tub outside.

    7. Hyatt Place Boston/Seaport District

    Great hotel, great people and great value

    Reviewed By sparshstravelsGreat location, fantastic views of the Boston harbor and excellent service. Arrived after a long overnight flight from San Francisco at 8:30am. The front desk staff were very friendly and accommodated an early check-in. Huge thanks to Kobi for her positive attitude – these small things go a long way in making guests feel welcome. I got my room at 9am and was upgraded to a premium harbor view room as a Hyatt Discoverist. The room is modern with a contemporary layout, beds are comfortable, a tad bit small but large by Boston standards. Excellent view of the harbor and the airport. Been fun to look at planes taking off from Logan airport. Good breakfast in the hotel, had a number of vegetarian options as well. The lounge area is really nice – lots of place to sit and do work, meet people or just enjoy the view. On the constructive side, the hotel could do away with one time use plastic water bottles and replace them with reusable bottles like in many other Hyatt properties. The shower pressure is also a tad bit on the weaker side, but didn’t really bother me much. Overall great property. Would definitely stay here again.

    8. The Revolution Hotel

    Catering to creative, adventurous, out-of-the-box travelers, The Revolution Hotel features several room types: Studio Suites for business travelers; Triple and Quad rooms with shared private bathrooms for groups of friends; and Premium King accommodations with en-suite bathrooms for couples, among others. A welcoming two-story lobby and garden level work space will serve as areas for guests and locals to gather and exchange ideas. An impressive 5,000 square foot food & beverage operation with expansive outdoor dining is destined to become a destination in and of itself.

    Small but Mighty!!!

    Reviewed By NicoleB3217My wife and I stayed in one of the Queen rooms with a bath in room. The room itself was quite compact, but so smartly laid out, it didn’t really matter. Everything was very clean and the fact that the bed is up on a platform, really improved the sleeping experience. No saggy mattress and we both slept great! For being so centrally located, the room was also very quiet. We stayed over a weekend and were only 1 flight up from the lobby. So we should have been able to hear street noise from outside or sounds from the bar in the lobby . . . but we didn’t! Excellent sound proofing and blackout shades in the room provides a great, restful sleep! The location can’t be beat! An easy walk from Back Bay station and to a bunch of Cafes and Restaurants in the Back Bay made this a super easy and convenient spot. Next time I have to travel to Boston, this hotel is going to be the first one I check for reservations!

    9. Southbridge Hotel And Conference Center

    Nestled along the scenic Quinebaug River, The Southbridge Hotel and Conference Center combines evocative architecture and modern amenities with new millennium technology to create an incomparable destination for productive meetings or some well-deserved leisure.

    Great Place near Brimfield

    Reviewed By Mary LAfter a long day at the flea market this is a great place to relax. Very clean, the beds are comfortable. It would be much better if the bar/restaurant was open during the week. In the past we would grab a burger and a beer and crash in our room. It is only open on Friday and Saturday-very disappointing.

    10. Gorges Grant Hotel

    Visit the Gorges Grant Hotel in the beautiful seaside community of Ogunquit, Maine. Our non-smoking facility offers guest rooms with one king or two queen sized beds.

    If Cuban food is your thing then this is the place. All of the typical dishes are here and they’re cooked to perfection. The Ropa Vieja is top on the list followed by the churrasco. Great home made empanadas with several typical of fillings. It’s a bring your own bottle and the sangria is definitely worth an order.

    Reviewed By MiseryEE – Virginia

    Had dinner reservations here for an early Valentine’s Day dinner celebration. Our waiter Franklin was impeccable with his service and making sure we had everything we needed during our dinner (we hope our tip reflected our happiness with him!). Best lobster bisque we ever had…creamy with large chunks of lobster in it. The Filet Mignon, Tenderloin, Lobster tails and South African Lobster Tail was cooked to perfection and seasoned perfectly. Not lost were the sides too…probably the best Au Gratin potatoes I’ve ever had. Dessert was fantastic too which we weren’t able to finish due to being so stuffed from everything we had prior. Can’t comment on the wine selection as we didn’t order drinks but it looks like they had a nice wine collection.

    While this meal was more on the pricey side of what we normally spend when we go out, I knew what the prices were going to be before hand and I thought everything we had was reasonably priced for what we got.
