Ask to be as high as possible to avoid the chattering scene in the lobby and the traffic that buzzes through the Theater District well into the night.
Fodor's "Inside, the nature-inspired decor is modern through and through, with typical W brand touches like a sleek, sceney lobby lounge (complete with falling water display and open fireplace)." Full review

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."
Zagat3.7
"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%.
