Just got back from a 2 night stay here and I was quite satisfied with the hotel. Stayed with my two teens - 16 and 14. We were told only a king was available but that a double queen room would likely come open if we checked in early enough. No such luck so we all crammed in to a King with a cot - no problem but a bit cramped. Very nice room - all the amenities, very quiet and clean. Staff were very pleasent - great suggestions and eager to please.

Two problems: (1) The breakfast buffet is overpriced and quite underwhelming - head outside to one of dozens of surrounding restaurants instead; (2) The exercise room is an after thought, tucked into the basement, inferior machines (cardio only as i recall) with no windows and no ventilation and no AC - the room was well over 100 degrees making exercise impossible.

For the price this hotel is an excellent choice and I would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at this hotel last week and was very impressed by the size and comfort of the rooms, the cleanliness, the location and the extra amenities offered by the hotel staff. Being right in downtown Boston and within walking distance of the shops on Newbury Street, the Boston Public Garden and the Copley Place was a wonderful treat. It was even better that the cost was not exorbitant and the rooms were beautiful appointed. There were also great extras such as a chocolate fountain in the hotel lobby for guests to partake in on Tuesday early evenings accompanied by the movie Willie Wonka on a flat screen TV for the kids. I highly recommend this hotel and I will certainly look to stay there again. Great valet parking too - and no more cost than what the parking garage would be!

This Hotel is in a fantastic location and has a very helpful informative staff. They have a beer tasteing night we also had a choclate evening with lots of yummy choices. Breakfast is available with buffet or ordered items. Our room on the top floor had a great view and we could access tours or walk to two large indoor malls. Lots of eating choice from high end to fast food. We are a senior couple but lots of families at the hotel for weekend specials with tours of the water on the "Duck" The friendliest Marriott we have encountered.

Stayed a few days in June. Great location. Valet parking. close to the T. close to Newbury. Supermarket across the street,Clean room, very quiet, Alitte pricy but if you want to stay in that area, it's the price to pay. Would not hesitate in staying there again.
