"The 148-room Hotel Commonwealth is one of the most well-rounded boutique hotels in Boston." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The opening of this ultra-modern hotel in 2002 signaled the gentrification of student-oriented Kenmore Square. French Second Empire decor is combined with hi-tech amenities."
Rough Guide "Old-world charm mixed with modern decor makes this a welcome addition to Boston’s luxury hotel scene, with nice touches like choice linens and L’Occitaine products, as well as the Eastern Standard restaurant."
Star Service "This is one of the best independent boutique-hotels in the city, a short-lister for anyone that appreciates animated interiors and a colorful built-in social scene with fine dining and a fun bar at its core." Full review
Gayot "Although constructed after the turn of the millennium, this hotel has an old-fashioned feel to it."
BlackBook "Largest rooms in Boston, with Fenway views for season ticketholders and their appreciative guests."

As at the Back Bay's other lofty lodgings, ask for the highest possible floor and you'll enjoy excellent views.

"A huge, 1,148-room hotel that opens into a mall and connects to a convention center, the Marriott appears impersonal and uninviting." Full review
Star Service "This is one of the busiest hotels in Boston thanks to its laudable convention space, location, design, and three floors of shops and dining and drinking establishments that hum with the activity." Full review
Gayot "This gigantic hotel resides in the heart of Copley Place, a huge shopping complex featuring over 60 upscale stores that include Tiffany & Co., Neiman Marcus and Gucci."

"This 38-story tower with something for everyone -- complete business facilities, a good-size pool, and direct access to Boston's shopping wonderland."
Fodor's "It's busy-busy, with throngs of tourists and their offspring, but you can't beat the location of this 38-story megahotel." Full review

YOU SHOULD KNOW If you're over 62, ask for Marriott's senior discount of 15%.
