We visited for 4 nights mid week. Positives: Comfortable bed Clean room Good shower Nice staff Negatives: No gym (although arrangements with gym 12min walk away). Average breakfast (the bacon was cremated to the point of being inedible). Overall: we enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

Hotel's Favourite
This hotel was great. As soon as you walk up we were greeted by the doormen opening the doors to a gorgeous entryway with a beautiful chandelier above. The front desk helped store our luggage and helped us with directions. While we were away they put our luggage into our adjoined rooms. They were very attentive. The rooms were very nicely sized. One with a king bed and a living room area with tv, couch, and chairs. The other room had two queen beds. All the beds were very comfortable. The bathrooms were very nice both had marble walk in showers. Plush towels and nice toiletries. All around a great stay!

Investigated accommodations for a long weekend visiting our favorite city. Came across The Eliot and decided to give it a try. BRAVO! From the moment we arrived in our Uber from Logan, we were greeted with such hospitality. We were convinced it would be a lovely stay. Our room was a beautiful suite and the extra room, was pivotal in how we experienced our weekend. The comfortable bed, the roomy living room and the quiet environment were all so appreciated. I would’ve liked more light as the lighting was served only by lamps, but that never once dimmed our enjoyment of this sweet hotel. Located at the corner of Massachusetts and Commonwealth Avenues … it is the perfect place to walk out the door and enjoy the back Bay of Boston. Right down the road is one of our favorite restaurants, the Atlantic Fish Company and we were so close to the TD Center., it was just a short ride to go watch the Celtics win over the Lakers! This will be the place we stay when we come to Boston. Such a beautiful experience.…

The rooms were freshly renovated, and the hotel has the elegance of the time when hotel travel with a unique experience. Wonderful staff and as a bonus there is an excellent restaurant in the ground floor. I’ve been here several times over the past few years and each time the hotel continues to get better.

I wish to thank this guest for taking the time to review his stay and for the wonderful rating! In many ways, the Eliot exemplifies what makes Boston distinctive, by combining the classic with the contemporary. Our historic architecture, vintage 1920's elevators, brass keys and opulent lobby combine flawlessly with modern room décor, contemporary public art and a trendy hotel restaurant, UNI, that is one of Boston's most acclaimed culinary destinations. It's always a special pleasure to welcome back members of our family of repeat guests, and I look forward to welcoming this guest back once again for an even greater stay!

This was my fourth stay at the Eliot and it never disappoints. We were in Boston for my husband’s birthday celebration - it’s a lovely old hotel that is immaculately clean and close to everything. I am visually impaired and have trouble in low light situations but the room was well lit with great sunshine facing Comm Ave. The Eliot’s best asset is it’s staff, all of whom are gracious and welcoming, and someone always appears to open the front door for you. Very comfortable bed, plenty of pillows, and nicely decorated. My favorite place to stay when I’m in town.

I wish to thank this guest for taking the time to review their stay of our "charming boutique hotel," and for the wonderful rating. It is also always a pleasure to welcome back members of our family of repeat guests. It is true that the Eliot is in an enviable location. We are situated on park-like and residential Commonwealth Avenue and our location in Boston's elegant, yet convenient Back Bay neighborhood puts so many of Boston's acclaimed resources just outside our front doors. I'm delighted this guest had such a positive stay and look forward to welcoming them back once again.

Nicely appointed, beautiful property run by a caring and extremely helpful staff. I stayed in a one bedroom suite and could not have been more comfortable. Location is within easy walking distance of some of the bet restaurants and shops in town.

In the heart of old school Boston, this pretty hotel brings you back in time, while feeling updated. Great service, great rooms. We were upgraded without even requesting to a suite and it was fabulous. Our car was ready on time and room service came swiftly. Highly recommend.

I wish to thank this guest for taking the time to review their stay and for the high rating. Our 1925 boutique hotel will soon celebrate its centennial and combines the dichotomy of old and new that so very much exemplifies Boston as a whole. Classical Neo-Georgian architectural elements, real brass room keys, 1920's Otis elevator cars with indicators, and modern room décor with contemporary public art, create a distinctive ambiance in a private residential-like building that continues to endear so many of our guests and repeat guests. I'm delighted this guest "highly recommends" our "great hotel," and look forward to welcoming them back once again.

Stellar customer service, elegant and comfortable surroundings, quiet and peaceful setting. Every staff member anticipated our needs then quickly and courteously met them. We had a King Suite over MLK weekend. Like the rest of the hotel, it was elegant and comfortable with plenty of room and the ability to close off the bedroom from the living room. We are a delicious breakfast buffet at Uni Restaurant in the hotel. The staff was amazing, the best and most welcoming customer service we’ve ever experienced!
