Hilton Boston Park Plaza

Boston, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

As synonymous with Boston as the eponymous tea party and cream pie, Hilton Boston Park Plaza has been a landmark on the city’s hotel circuit since it opened 90 years ago. Reinterpreted for the 21st century traveller with a $100 million mega-makeover, it now adds contemporary décor and mod-cons to its timeless elegance. And you’re in good company, with all bar two US Presidents staying here since it opened. It’s easy to see why, with a top-drawer location near Boston Common. Of course, they wouldn’t all have experienced today’s attractions, which include a mammoth 20,000 SF Health Club, the nightly cocktail hour (well 5 hours) in the Library, and the New England inspired dining of its Off the Common restaurant, with Boston’s signature lobster rolls a menu favourite.

My husband and I came to Boston to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. Kevin at the desk was wonderful and all the staff was very helpful when we had questions. The valet is terrific too!

We took the car out 1 night to see our niece and they were slammed due to an event at the hotel. Despite being so busy, they worked very hard to speak to everyone and get our vehicles out as soon as possible. Read less

I was on the short business trip with late checkin and early check out. The long line at checkin with only one associate and no HHonors desk. At some point more associates joined and line started moving. The lobby was noisy and busy. Hotel is old, no executive lounge, gym shared. There was road work till late night. I checked in first to the room without desk and i needed to work. Went back to checkin desk to ask for a room change. Associate Devon was the only person who understood my needs and gave me the only good feeling about my stay and the only reason i rate the hotel at 3 not 1 point. She checked me in to the bigger room with deck without many questions. Overall, noisy, not very business friendly, overpriced , might be good for celebrations -and vacations. Next time i will stay at a different venue. PS for disclaimer i have HH diamond status Read less

They provided a change of room, complimentary drinks and food and nothing was a chore during difficult times with the ongoing strikes. Also a big… Read more
