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.

We were visiting family for a memorial service nearby. We arrived late Friday but were greeted by a very helpful staff member at the check in desk. The room was spacious and very clean. The staff had left a nice snack for us, which was much appreciated after a long day of travel. We had dine-in service the next night. The delivery was quick and the food was excellent. This was the third time that we had stayed at this hotel in June and shall be staying there anytime we travel to Boston.

We had a truly exceptional stay at the Fairmont Copley Plaza. Our visit was an unexpected one that began at 10:30pm when we called needing to leave another hotel. Thankfully, the Fairmont was able to accommodate us. Shout out to Peter who was incredibly kind and lovely and told us to come right over. We got there, and he got us settled in in minutes with utmost skill and care. Our room was perfect - super comfortable, meticulously clean and gracious. We had an incredible stay, and needed to actually adjust our reservation to stay longer. There were some moving parts involved. The hotel was full - booked out for a convention - but the folks who worked at the desk were so attentive. They told us they were on it and would do all they could, and this is true. They were indeed totally on it. All worked out thanks to Rav, Nikki and Emmanuel, and once again Peter - and then checking out with Ibrahim - all so kind, warm and truly at the top of their game. All of this good stuff happened at the front desk, but it is worth mentioning that every other aspect of our stay was seamless. Everyone we encountered in our five days at the Fairmont was absolutely wonderful - super welcoming, professional, the level of service was remarkable. We had initially booked a hotel that was a little less. The Fairmont was incrementally more expensive and exponentially more amazing. We feel very grateful that we landed there.
