We booked the Park Plaza for 3 nights over the 4th of July holiday. We chose the hotel because my wife had stayed there for business a year ago and knew it would be convenient for all of the sites we wanted to see in downtown Boston. It is close to Boston Common and has close subway access and is... more

In all honesty, don't waste your money on this hotel. Its over rated, over priced and definitely does not stand up to the Starwood name and I'll tell you why. The AC was broken in our room and when we called the front desk to see if it could be fixed, the receptionist was rude to us telling us we... more

This hotel takes up one square block--it's huge. It is a block away from Boston Common, making it a centralized location to see everything in Boston. The hotel is near the Arlington Avenue T station and is good for getting around. Everyone should check out Gypsy Bar on Boylston, which is only a block away from the hotel. It was... more

We booked a last minute trip to Boston to see the 4th of July celebration with the Boston Pops. We really enjoyed this trip and the hotel! It was convenient to so many things - walking distance to the public garden and many other attractions. We walked to the banks of the Charles River within about 15 minutes. The service... more

I paid a fraction of the standard room price by booking through Priceline. Boston Park Plaza is the only hotel 3* that they have in the Boston Common area, so there was no risk of getting something that I didn't want when bidding through the website. I was a little concerned when reading other Trip Advisor reviews that mentioned budget... more

Our room was very large with two double beds. The room looked like it had been renovated within the last year or so. The beds were comfy. The hotel has a great location. A few negatives (but certainly not worthy of a bad review). The bathroom was small, dated, and in need of a refurbishment. The AC made alot of... more

Just returned from 3 days at the Park Plaza. You couldn't ask for a better location. 5 minute walk from Boston Common and 10 minute walk from the T. Great for sightseeing. Rooms were not large but adequate. Bedding was very comfortable with a nice duvet and lots of pillows. A/C worked great. The bathroom was a little small but... more

There was a time, and it may have been in 1927, the year this hotel opened, when things like private baths provided bragging rights. Maybe I am spoiled, but as a business traveler, I have become accustomed to clean, marble and glass bathrooms with room enough to dress and groom myself. The bathroom in my room is scary! Old and... more

The hotel was booked for the night of 15 May 2008 being our last night in Boston prior to our return to the UK. On presenting the confirmed reservation voucher provided by our travel agents, we were advised that no booking had been made, but they had recorded a booking for the previous day. No rooms were available as there... more
