Beacon Hill Hotel & Bistro

Fantastic, central location — easily accessible and nearby many neighborhoods; I could walk everywhere. Love that it is so close to Boston Common, too, where I parked. I also liked the efficient use of shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner built into dispensers in the shower wall. And I really loved the heat vent in the bathroom, as the days I stayed over were snowy and cold. It made getting ready in the morning a lot more comfortable.

It was difficult to fall asleep because Charles Street pedestrians and traffic are quite loud, well into the night. The rooms overlooking Charles Street do entail a lot of noise and brightness even when shades are closed. Also would be nice to have an extra blanket in the room to drape over the bedding for added warmth.

It’s very clean, the room was beautiful and big. The location is perfect, just next to Back Bay.

The reception area is kind of small; it shroud be separated from the bistro.
