As synonymous with Boston as the eponymous tea party and cream pie, Hilton Boston Park Plaza has been a landmark on the city’s hotel circuit since it opened 90 years ago. Reinterpreted for the 21st century traveller with a $100 million mega-makeover, it now adds contemporary décor and mod-cons to its timeless elegance. And you’re in good company, with all bar two US Presidents staying here since it opened. It’s easy to see why, with a top-drawer location near Boston Common. Of course, they wouldn’t all have experienced today’s attractions, which include a mammoth 20,000 SF Health Club, the nightly cocktail hour (well 5 hours) in the Library, and the New England inspired dining of its Off the Common restaurant, with Boston’s signature lobster rolls a menu favourite.

We had multiple families coming in to celebrate a graduation and Peter Ly at the front desk was patient and efficient as he helped us juggle multiple check-in times for various rooms.
Except for the restaurant, I would recommend this hotel.
Great hotel!

Horrible hotel
May 15, 2025nyp1248New York City, New York
Terrible hotel with outdated smelly rooms and horrible customer service. They charge you an amenity fee but no minibar or pool. Avoid at all costs as it is very expensive for no reason. Should be a motel 6 but what can I say. I hope to never return to this crappy place
