The hotel

Dating back to 1912, the Fairmont Copley Plaza is a historic landmark in itself. Step through the grand front doors and prepared to be wowed by the beautifully elegant lobby. Step back out the doors, and you’ll find yourself in Back Bay — one of Boston’s best areas for boutique shopping, eating and drinking. After a day of exploring, you’ll find a welcome retreat here, with a rooftop health club with views over the city, and spacious, comfy rooms to get some well-earned rest before heading back out again to explore in the morning.

The lobby and common areas are sensational. Truly grand and of historic relevance. Rooms and hallways at the hotel room floors look a little tired and would benefit from an upgrade. Service professional and friendly. Breakfast room among the most beautiful one can find in the US.

I had a minor issue with my faucet. Dan was there to fix it promptly and was very kind and professional. He took a negative and changed it to a positive experience. I won’t hesitate to return to the Fairmont Copley the next time I travel to Boston

Stayed on the gold floor. Kevin was amazing. We were traveling with our daughter. Kevin every time saw us would recognize her by her name and see if she needed anything. Cori the dog ambassador for the Hotel was a big hit. He has his own Instagram account the friendliest dog you’ve ever met. Will definitely be back next time in Boston.
