Top South Boston Hotel Reviews

Renaissance® Boston Seaport District

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone and everything was perfect."

Omni Parker House

8/10 Good

"Great location for hitting up historical sites! Ask about the complimentary hotel tours and Boston cream pie classes when you check in. The staff was so helpful and when we requested extra things like ear plugs they arrived faster than any hotel I’ve ever been in. The bed is advertised as a queen but was definitely a full, and the rooms aren’t particularly unique for the price, but the location and staff were great."

Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Downtown/Seaport

10/10 Excellent

"It was great for a weekend getaway. Very accessible from the bus line and convenient walking area to see a few spots and get to the train for Salem. It was a beautiful property with a very friendly staff! We were a bit early and they were so kind in accommodating us since we had an event to be at by 7pm that night. Very friendly people and a very clean hotel overall. I would recommend this to anyone traveling in the area and will definitely be booking again with them."
