The hotel is well-situated on Newbury Street with easy access to galleries, cafes, restaurants, shops, Boston Common and Public Garden, interesting residential streets, Boston Public Library, and Amtrak. The hotel restaurant La Voile was excellent, with a varied French menu and indoor and outdoor dining -- great for people-watching! The staff (hotel and restaurant) was very friendly and helpful, offering us a map and directions for key spots of interest to visit in the environs.
It would have been helpful to have more bath linens than the standard ones for 2 people.
