The Westin Boston Seaport District

Boston, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

In the thriving Seaport District, this feature-packed hotel’s just steps from one of neighbourhood’s biggest draws, The Lawn on D. The outside comes in at The Westin Boston Seaport District too, with its lobby greeting you with natural stone and wood, a vertical garden, and leafy trees. Delve deeper and you’ll find 4 bars and restaurants, each sharing its own take on all-American dining: there’s the contemporary slant at Sauciety, the Irish-American pub twist at MJ O’Connor’s, American grill favourites at Birch Bar, and local light bites at City Bar. When you’ve had your fill of the food, the Westin’s Laugh Boston comedy club presents local and national acts. And, if Boston’s sightseeing highlights don’t eat up every second of your trip, there’s always the indoor pool and whirlpool, fitness studio, and group runs guided by a ‘RunWESTIN Concierge’.

I've stayed many a times at the Westin for an annual convention, but not always get a chance for a room. However, during this convention, I always manage to grab breakfast in the hotel lobby when they have a breakfast buffet. It's quite the variety of what one could want for breakfast, and always prompt service. The server that attended to me during my last few visits, Ying Mei, was most courteous and attentive to my needs. Should you find yourself in the area during the weekend and the buffet is open, I HIGHLY recommend it. Read less

Always enjoy this Westin, very convenient for BCEC guests. We got breakfast every morning in the lobby restaurant, Sharon did a very good job of taking care of the table and was always friendly. Hotel is easy to navigate, never had an issue getting to our room or getting to the front for an uber/lyft.

Even with a very busy lobby for a weekend convention, the doorman Hilaire and the valet parking staff were so courteous and professional that I felt the need to recognize their excellent service. A great hotel with perfect location for BCEC events.

EVERYONE GO SEE MYA AT THE BREAKFAST BUFFET. Mya made my whole trip so much better with her kindness and cheerfulness. I would stay here again just to have one more conversation with her. She literally is the best. 12/10 human. The overall stay had issues but Mya turned everything around. I love her.

Honestly, if I attend pax east I will stay at no other hotel. The convince, the atmosphere and amazing staff like Singh make a world of difference. I was having a little trouble getting something from my car and this gentleman came over to ask if he could help me.
