Aloft Boston Seaport District

Boston, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

Bang on trend, this hotel’s industrial-meets-chic styling is completely in keeping with its neighbourhood, the fast-flourishing Seaport district. Its spot in this trendy borough’s pretty enviable too, just across the road from its coolest hangout space, Lawn on D, which hosts food trucks, live events, and free yard games and WiFi. Inside the hotel there's plenty to offer too, a suitably contemporary indoor pool space,  live entertainment at D's Keys Dueling Piano Bar or W XYZ Bar, and 24-hour dining and fitness - ideal whatever time you return from exploring Boston’s most famous attractions. From the Freedom Trail to the shopping around Faneuil Hall, the city’s biggest draws are all within a couple of miles.

Great staff with great amenities! Room was very clean. Nelly, at the front desk, helped us so much!! We are new to the area and she took the time to walk us through the train system and wrote down detailed directions for us which helped so much!!

Experience overall was great, bar had a good atmosphere, everything was comfortable. Jody at the front desk really stood out. She was accommodating and extremely friendly. If every hotel had a Jody, they’d be in a good place. 4 stars without Jody, 5 stars with Jody.

The hotel was over all okay. The rooms are small, water was not provided, valet charges were 54 bucks a night, bed was very okay too. The only thing was the valley staff Mr. Yacouty who helped us save our money on necessary things. Definitely recommend taking help on your visit

Aisha at the reception was exceptionally helpful. Hotel was with average facilities. Some in the reception were not very helpful. Rooms are good. No water bottles in the room. Calm place but no restaurant. I might visit again. Friends also feel the same.

Great place to stay and overall great experience. Staff are super helpful and really great for pre & post Boston marathon. Facilities were great for what we needed and recommendations on how to get to different locations were super helpful.
