With only online reservations and never seeing the hotel in person ,I was a bit worried about what I would encounter for myself and my groups booking. This hotel is outstanding,shiny,bright and new,with a fabulous staff on hand as well as nearby parking the hotel exceeded all my and my groups expectations,with a great price for the Boston area. I would recommend it to each and every person that asks as it really is a gem, with a euro flair,and a perfect relaxing place to stay at. Fred B.

Testimonials: Why use Hotel Planner?
"By the way, I was very pleased with your site's service! It turned out that our group got a better room price reservation at a comparable hotel to the one we were considering. Since our small jazz band doesn't really have any budget to speak of, price was an important consideration and thanks to your service we were able to save money without sacrificing on the quality and amenities of the hotel. Thanks again! We'll be using you again, I'm sure, for future trips." D.R. - Auburn, WA
