Excellent location - we felt very safe and well looked after throughout our stay. The rooms are clean, modern and well appointed. Super comfortable beds, and housekeeping did a good job. The bathroom was spacious, although a few extra hooks for hanging towels would have been appreciated. A special shoutout to Sherley and James on reception - it was so lovely chatting with them, and they were both incredibly helpful and attentive. Sherley always made sure to offer us complimentary bottles of water, even as we left for the airport, which was such a thoughtful gesture and greatly appreciated. In fact, every member of staff we interacted with was polite, welcoming and happy to help. We also loved the complimentary wine hour in the lobby, such a fun touch before heading out to dinner in the evenings! Overall, a really enjoyable stay.

Rebecca at the bar is so fabulous! My extended family met up at the bar (some of us were staying at the hotel) and she was fantastic. She juggled our orders with grace, and made me the most delicious dirty wet gin martini! She helped me make sure Boston left a good impression.

We had the best time visiting Boston and staying at Hotel AKA. Wendy checked us in the first night and she was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate us an extra night due to a flight change and upgraded us to the coolest room! Her kindness and generosity made the start of our trip incredible. Hotel was clean and beautiful. All the hotel staff was friendly and accommodating as well! Thank you again, Wendy!

Excellent hotel with excellent service! The rooms are spacious with great views of the commons and Boston skyline. Rebecca down at the lobby bar took phenomenal care of us! The handmade blue cheese olives and fresh brewed espresso made the martinis extra tasty. Highly recommend staying here or just stopping by for a drink.

Hotel AKA Boston Common is an amazing hotel! In addition to the location of the hotel, my room was very clean, spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. Most importantly the staff, specifically Nay and Sherley were fantastic. Nay and Sherley were very kind, professional, and I felt very welcomed by them at this hotel. I highly recommend Hotel AKA Boston Common for a wonderful stay. Wait, I almost forgot, the breakfast WOW, I was really impressed. I ordered a plain bagel with cream cheese and the Greek Yogurt Parfait. I thought the whole breakfast was going to be plain, wow was I wrong. The Greek Yogurt Parfait was elevated and the fruit was very delicious and fresh. The bagel was buttered, toasted, and so good! I’ve never had a bagel that tasted so good, honestly. Please listen to me and book Hotel AKA Boston Common. I will certainly come back to stay at this wonderful hotel. Thank you Hotel AKA Boston Common, specifically Nay and Sherley for making my experience wonderful!

This hotel is in a central location next to Boston common park, within walking distance to a variety of restaurants, coffee shops and events. Staff are super nice and helpful. We used the valet. It was i believe $65 per day. But they did leave our car out for us, as we had an early flight out and so it was easy to get moving. Our room was nice and its great to have the shades electronically pull down. The only reason I gave 4 🌟 is because we were offered a special 50$ upgrade to a higher floor, but on the higher floor, there was a massive metal box blocking the view. So that is not a great choice. Also, they charge hidden fees at 45$ per day. Its called a destination fee. Some hotels charge this so they can appear to have lower hotel costs for customers. This definitely drives the cost up if you're not planning for it, that can really drag down a nice trip.

Our experience at The Bosworth was truly amazing. The team was awesome; Joseph our host, Ada, a superb server, and Felipe, our bar tender, made an extraordinary adventure. The cocktails were above and beyond, the atmosphere was so relaxing, and the food was delicious. The Caesar salad was so clean, the roasted chicken was 100% on point and the pistachio coated sea bass was yummy. Our dessert, the S’mores , ble us away; the deconstructed dish was so extravagant. The puff pastry, the flan(!) the crushed Graham cracker and the berries made it a truly delicious experience
