Had an amazing time at the Whitney. Front desk service was impeccable, friendly and was ‘just’ the added touch I would expect of a property of this caliber. I really do look forward to my next time in Boston and hope to stay at the Whitney.

The air conditioning was not working properly. I mentioned it to front desk. They said that they have had other problems like this and that they would fix it but they never did. For the cost of staying at this hotel, there should not be any issues with the basics like air con. Also, it was very noisy; inconsiderate guests make lots of noise in the hallways well after midnight.

Mostly perfect

Location is superb. Friendly staff. Clean and modern rooms. Blackout curtains. Nice toiletries. Had an issue with our a/c at 1am and you can’t adjust the fan speed of the a/c which stinks as you do need white noise due to hearing people above / next door.

Lobby smells of food because of the restaurant in the hotel. They need to change the menu or have a stronger exhaust.

We really enjoyed our stay at hotel. Room is spacious and bed is very comfortable. It is central to all attractions and restaurants. We feel Boston is a walkable city. The train station is just across the street from the hotel. Would definitely recommend the Whitney Hotel as it is good value for money.
