Verified reviews of The Newbury Boston

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Warm, welcoming, sincere, professional, splendid!"
Overall score5.0/ 5
We were fortunate to have stayed at The Newbury. From reserving our room right thru checkout it was flawless. The room service, front desk, The Street Bar, The Library Mohammad, Charlie and the entire crew were just wonderful. Honestly, we could not have asked for more,.

"Poor customer service."
Overall score4.0/ 5
Upon checking in I was told Suite was ready but needed inspection after waiting an hour I saw the hotel manager in lobby and explained my situation to him He very graciously took care of situation and checked us in I believe I would still be waiting for inspection .Poor communication between front desk and house keeping Keep in mind the room was clean simply needed inspection. I approached front desk three different times to inquire about status Have to improve that piece of the puzzle If it would have been easy I would have left to find another Hotel Front desk supervisor not very helpful Thank God I spotted Hotel manager very helpful and accommodating.

"Flawless renovation and wonderful staff."
Overall score5.0/ 5
I brought my niece here for her 17th birthday (yes lucky girl!). I had not been back to the hotel since it was called the Taj. I had a few decades of experience at the property and I was curious to see what it looked like after a 10 year absence. I was more than pleased! I relished in the tasteful way they had transformed the hotel and used the space differently. The transformation into The Newbury does this prestigious address justice and brings it into the modern era of refined luxury and taste. The staff in all of their different roles were perfect, not only with us but with the other guests I observed them helping. I highly recommend a stay here. I will be back.

"We were very impressed."
Overall score5.0/ 5
Everything about our visit was terrific. The valet was very personable, the registration person was very welcoming. Drinks in the Street Bar were very relaxing. The room was spacious with a great view of the Public Garden. Breakfast in the Contessa was delicious, and the view was gorgeous. We'll come back.

Property description

The Newbury Boston, located in the city's Back Bay, is currently undergoing a transformative renovation and restoration. Originally opened in 1927, this iconic Boston landmark will reopen in late 2020. The property will be re-imagined with a thoughtful new floor plan, dramatic public spaces, 285 redesigned guestrooms (including 90 suites), stunning event spaces and new food and beverage experiences, including a rooftop restaurant and the restoration of the beloved Street Bar. Residential in feel, each of The Newbury's 285 guest rooms and suites will incorporate a calming color palette and tactile materials. Rooms will be appointed with hand-selected, richly textured furnishings and original artwork, along with amenities exclusively curated for guests. The Newbury Boston will offer 16,000 square feet of dramatic and flexible event space which will be beautifully renovated and updated with modern functionality, providing an ideal setting for meetings and celebrations overlooking The Public Garden. In addition to the event space, the new food and beverage experience includes the restoration of The Street Bar and the addition of a Library Lounge, available exclusively to hotel guests. The seasonal rooftop space will be converted into a year-round restaurant, operated by Major Food Group, a leading hospitality and restaurant company.

Green sustainability

The Newbury Boston boasts 12 apiaries which in 2017 collected over 300lbs of honey. This honey is used on site for desserts, cocktails and everything in between. Managed by local company Best Bees, the hives and the honey are apart of an ongoing study regarding success of urban beekeeping. Additionally we are are listed as a Tripadvisor Green Leader: Platinum level. What this means is our hotel at a minimum does all the following: •Having linen and towel re-use plans•Tracking energy usage on a regular basis•Comprehensive Recycling - composting & reusing •Using energy efficient light-bulbs•Educating staff and guests on green practices•Properly treat waste water (either using an on-site or municipal sewage system) EarthCheck Gold certified and have maintained this achievement 6 years in a row.
