Hotel Preferred di Boston

Great location for exploring Boston with subway and bus service a very short walk from hotel. Subway is cheap and very efficient way to get around. Hotel rooms are spacious and reception team are very welcoming and helpful. If you want to visit the theatres or Chinatown both are only a few minutes walk. Like any hotel there are downsides.... The includes breakfast option is not correct, you get an allowance towards breakfast which does not cover the cost, also breakfast service can be very good or very bad over the 8 days we stayed we experienced both. Evening meals are OK but you can get much better a few minutes walk away. Whilst the hotel is generally well sound insulated for an old building which has been sympathetically converted to an hotel it does not help on a Saturday night, The local nightclub is extremely popular with long queue's down the street, the ones who cannot get in seem to have a weekly rave on the adjoining multi storey car park until around 3am. The noise is incredible and despite this being a weekly occurrence the hotels complaints seem to be ignored by the local authorities. My advice is to either be prepared and accept the inconvenience or avoid staying on a Saturday Night, the same applies to all the other hotels in the immediate vicinity, especially the one with the Candibar nightclub in its basement! Overall a good hotel which could be even be great if the onsite restaurant was improved, the ”includes breakfast” listing was correctly worded, and the local authorities took action about the unsociable noise. Final word of praise for the super reception staff who really go the extra mile to help you enjoy your stay.

The staff were incredible. The lobby and bar look dated, but the room was perfect. The airport shuttle was a great surprise! The hotel is near a T stop, so it is easy to get into the city, but there isn’t a whole lot around (in walking distance) in terms of restaurants/bars- although we only stayed for one night so we could have missed something!

The service was pretty good. It gave me a $40 ”Food & Breakfast” credit per day. I just didn't expect that I also had to pay an extra $30 ”Unban Destination Fee” per day.

It was a quick trip, I didn't get checked in until 3am and left out @9 am. The room was very clean. I was able to grab a quick bagel thanks to the free breakfast buffet. My car was waiting for me and my bag was place in my car by the attendant. Once I was home checking my emails I realized my stay was prorated and I was not charged a full day. I really appreciate them for noticing and applying the credit. I will be choosing Embassy Suites for future trips to Boston.

The first day we checked in happened to be the first day the employees went on strike and rallied and marched outside the hotel. It was so noisy that they started beating gongs and drums at 7 a.m. the next morning. The noise lasted all day. The quarrel ended only in the afternoon of the next day. Rare experience.

The room is big, with comfortable bedding. The breakfast is very decent. The area is quiet and safe, also convenient to take public transportion. But the wall in shower has some hair left from the previous stayer.

Next to the public library, there is a Starbucks restaurant downstairs The environment inside is quite ordinary, and basically no laundry items are provided Water also needs to be paid: you can see the night view of Boston city There is nothing to take pictures of in the hotel, just take a look at the library
