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.
