Opened in 1900 by the same man who owned the New York Waldorf-Astoria, this small luxury hotel offers European charm in a prime Copley Square location. Wood-burning fireplaces in corner rooms, customized furnishings, marble bathrooms and a doting staff offering personalized service are just some of the highlights. The hotel offers free wireless Internet, complimentary morning coffee and has a 24-hour business center. Rooms feature high-ceilings and are decorated with an elegance and sophistication that includes four-poster beds, fresh flowers and framed artwork. A small fitness facility is available. It’s a block from Newbury Street and within walking distance to Symphony Hall and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. |
