Concierge "Head to the hotel's City Bar, a popular late-night hangout for the local club set."
Fodor's "A good alternative to chain-owned, big-box Back Bay hotels, the family-owned Lenox with top-notch service continues to please a well-groomed clientele." Full review
Lonely Planet "While the atmosphere is a tad old-world, you don’t have to forgo modern conveniences to live with that ethos." Full review

"A fixture in Boston since 1900, this 214-room, green-minded Back Bay boutique offers a prime location near Copley Square, two lively bars, and fantastic free amenities." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This landmark hotel, just off Copley Square behind the Boston Public Library, features sumptuous Edwardian detail in its public areas."
Rough Guide "Billed as Boston’s version of the New York’s Waldorf-Astoria when its doors first opened in 1900, the Lenox – after a recent renovation – remains one of the most upscale hotels in the city."
Star Service "The staff caters well to the hotel's diverse clientele, and the convenient location (with a T station nearby) makes this an ideal spot for both business travelers and leisure guests. " Full review
Gayot "Opened in 1900 by the same man who owned the New York Waldorf-Astoria, this small luxury hotel offers European charm in a prime Copley Square location."
BlackBook "Futuristic test kitchen for Legal Seafoods."
Time Out "The privately owned Lenox, which first opened in 1900, boasts a prime location next to the Boston Public Library and oozes quiet elegance." Full review

Frommer's "With its exquisite service, beautiful location, elegant guest rooms and public areas, terrific health club, and wonderful restaurants, the Four Seasons is the best hotel in Boston." Full review
Concierge "Sitting on perhaps the most coveted piece of the city's real estate, the Four Seasons Boston overlooks the Public Garden and is within walking distance of Newbury Street's couture boutiques."
Fodor's "This Public Garden–facing spot keeps a surprisingly low profile in Boston—and that's OK by the jeans-clad millionaires and assorted business types who cluster in the glossy lobby." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Low-key contemporary luxury draws rock stars, authors, corporate businesspeople, and visiting dignitaries."
Rough Guide "The tops in city accommodation, with 288 large rooms. The penthouse-level health spa has an indoor pool that seems to float over the Public Garden. $350."
Star Service "This top-shelf address continues to prove itself as one of the leaders in Boston, with superlative service and a long list of amenities." Full review
Gayot "This cream-of-the-crop property overlooks Beacon Hill, the State House dome and the Public Garden from its premier location."
Zagat4.3
"The Four Seasons brand "lives up to its reputation" at this "plush" property, the "crème-de-la-crème of hotels in Downtown Boston" with a "fabulous location"."
Forbes Travel Guide 5 Stars
"When it comes to superlative service, no one does it like the Four Seasons, and the Boston outpost is no exception." Full review
Lonely Planet "Utter the two words ‘Four Seasons’ and you might as well be uttering a whole paragraph of superlative adjectives to describe one of the finest hotel chains."
