The stay was not great, it was phenomenal!!! Super friendly and helpful staff. Great room preparation, and attention to details is next to none! Not only they went above and beyond to address our requests, but also in general, they really know how to may you welcomed and the hotel stay so effortless. Will definitely come back again!
In general this hotel was exquisite. Rooms, onsite restaurants and facilities were nice, staff were extremely friendly and polite. However I was somewhat disappointed in the spa experience. Spa seemed poorly attended, showers without toiletries, empty glasses and towels from previous guests left out. That said my massage was perfect, the masseuse was wonderfully talented and lovely.
I could not fault this hotel in any way. After long days out sightseeing and shopping it was great to get back and relax. This was our first time in Boston so we’re not sure which area was best to stay in. However the hotel’s location in Back Bay was excellent.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A HOTEL IN BOSTON, THIS IS THE BEST (in my opinion). As soon as we walked in the lobby, it was very serene and was very pleasant. Getting the room ready did not take long, lounge in lobby was awesome. The room (we stayed in suite) was very spacious and they had kids robes! (which is basically a requirement for a fancy hotel like this one). The pool was warmer than expected, and the hot tub was the best because it was very relaxing and calm. The best part is how they brought up food for free we didn't even ask for up to our room! In-room dining was very good, and the Long Bar was exceptional - peaceful and not blasting music at a high volume so we could enjoy breakfast. This hotel is very walkable because on Thanksgiving, we went to a steakhouse that was only 5 minutes away!
To be honest, this hotel exceeded my expectations and will stay here again!
PS: would rate it 12/10 if I could.
We had a wonderful stay. The staff goes above and beyond to make your experience memorable with personalized touches and top notch service. We’ll be back!
This may be the best hotel I have ever stayed at. It is definitely in the top 5. Great room, great staff, and great restaurants/bars/amenities. It's very walkable to many things Boston, as well!
The service was friendly but very uneven. On our reservation we requested connecting rooms, for our family, which I reiterated when confirming my reservation. Upon check-in they had no notes related to my reservation and not only were the rooms not connected, they were on opposite ends of the floor. Nevertheless, the rooms very nice and comfortable
Raffles is a great hotel with exceptional service. We had everything we needed and the staff was there for anything we asked. We totally enjoyed staying there and will do so next time we are in Boston.
