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
OysterUpscale
"The 498-room Hyatt Regency is in need of an overhaul -- it's outdated, disorganized, and not well maintained."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

Star Service "Within walking distance of most sights (a 10-minute walk to Boston Common), it is now a popular midrange operation with lots of color and a determined young staff." Full review
Gayot "This restored nineteenth-century building offers great value in the historic Bulfinch Triangle neighborhood just a few blocks from Beacon Hill and within walking distance of Quincy Market."
Jetsetter "Downtown cool meets turn-of-the-century design in a boutique hotel that captures Boston’s independent spirit." Full review
Not For Tourists "Formerly the Bulfinch Hotel."
The Telegraph7.0
"Even Bostonians are surprised that such a stylish hotel exists in the West End." Full review
Frommer's "One block from North Station, the Bulfinch is a leisure-traveler magnet that attracts thrifty businesspeople with its convenient location and reasonable rates." Full review
Lonely Planet "This place oozes understated sophistication." Full review
Michelin Guide "The guest rooms strike a balance between cool earth tones and curious metalwork...distinctive accommodations abound — in the Boxer Bunk rooms, twin beds stretch above full size mattresses." Full review
