Fodor's "Luxury and service without pretense makes this hip spot a solid choice." Full review
Lonely Planet "Set amid Commonwealth Ave’s brownstones and just steps away from Fenway Park, this independent luxury hotel enjoys prime real estate." Full review
OysterUpscale
"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."
Zagat3.8
"Guests appreciate the "considerate" and "incredibly accommodating" service at this boutique Fenway/Kenmore property, which offers "lovely" and "large, well-appointed" rooms."
Time Out "Inside, the spacious suites and rooms have a rustic, boutique elegance, along with superior technological conveniences." Full review

Frommer's "Your fellow guests at this 22-story hotel are likely to be other convention-goers during the week, and sightseers and families on weekends." Full review
Fodor's "Picturesque, Downtown Crossing is not, as it is packed with every conceivable kind of discount store and street vendor, but the area hums with activity." Full review

"The 498-room Hyatt Regency is in need of an overhaul -- it's outdated, disorganized, and not well maintained." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The Hyatt offers spacious rooms with modern decor and is located close to the up-and-coming Ladder District, with several fine restaurants and night-time entertainment venues nearby."
Star Service "Set in a dull part of town, two minutes' walk from the Downtown Crossing T station and filling a tall, sharply angled tower, this hotel benefits from Hyatt's adept management skills." Full review
Gayot "Style and subtlety are hallmarks here. A tasteful Waterford chandelier hangs in the stately lobby, and artwork and antiques are displayed discreetly throughout the interiors."
Zagat3.7
"The location of this 22-story chain outpost ("steps from the T and in the heart of Downtown") "makes it a winner" for business travelers and sightseers."
Star Service "In East Boston, this property is the second-best waterfront hotel in the Boston area after the Boston Harbor." Full review
