Nothing I hate more than having to touch a crusty-a$$ remote - no issues here! Brand new everything. Decent size room. Enough space to spread out, full size fridge, dishwasher, and stove. I loved the shower! Nothing leaking on the floor either. Had one minor issue w the room but they sent someone up within 10 mins to quickly rectify. Would stay again!

    Absolutely loved my stay from beginning to end. First impression is everything and let me tell you…read moreabout Okemia, she works front desk, and she was absolutely the most amazing, kind hearted, attentive, compassionate, respectful, above and beyond individual I've ever met in a customer service setting. She restored my faith in humanity, just by going above and beyond even for little things. She welcomed me with the most amazing welcoming aura, and beautiful smile. She checked me in very easily no issues at all, and whenever I had a question she went above and beyond to get it answered. Now I know she's in a customer service hospitality setting so of course this is supposed to be the standard but no, she surpasses the standard. This hotel should absolutely give this lady more grace, a raise, a recognition and so much more. You never know what somebody is going through and this individual right here restored my faith in humanity. She not only gave me the best experience. She is the reason why I was so happy during my stay. And ultimately why I enjoyed my time coming from a person who was dealing with significant anxiety the whole day until I arrived at this hotel. Now let me just say this hotel is absolutely beautiful from the lobby to breakfast to the bedroom. Everything was perfect. The check-in process was so smooth. I love how you can use the app on your phone as a key to enter your room, the elevator and the pool and gym. Everybody I ran into employee wise was just so attentive and kind. The price was absolutely reasonable. And the service was immaculate. I have already bookmarked this place so that I do come back even when I just need a little getaway because it left that much of an impression on me. I have provided pictures and videos to show how beautiful this place actually is. Now although it's not right downtown save your money go here and just take an Uber around. It's worth it. Everything was in the room had a full kitchen set had a table for me to do my work a very comfortable bed and great service. I was there for a fashion show that my mom was going to be competing in . That's why I was in town. And Okemia made sure to ask when I came back how it went. Even simple conversations like this go along way. And it was very much appreciated that she cared and just engaged in conversation. I travel often and I run into a lot of terrible hotels. But I can promise you that your stay here will be absolutely memorable. And to Okemia you are literally heaven sent. Thank you for making my stay amazing and thank you for helping me with all that you did during my stay. Might I add? I left my lint roller at home and I was going to a fashion show. I had no time to go to the store to grab a lint roller. I called downstairs and Okemia didn't have any lint rollers available, but somehow I get a knock on my door and she found the huge lint roller that they use on the beds within the housekeeping. That's going above and beyond to help me out this lady deserves all the recognition that she can get and I hope this company reads this and takes this serious because she deserves it. And she's the reason why I will continue to speak so highly about this hotel and will be back.

For our company Hilton is the preferred vendor, we had the luxury of valet parking. It was a good thing, too, because street parking was very limited and hard to find in the area. Although the hotel was about 30 minutes away from the airport, it was conveniently located near where I needed to be. Upon arriving, I was impressed with the cleanliness and security of the hotel. Access to the elevators was granted through the use of digital keys, adding an extra layer of protection. My room was located on the ninth floor and was a corner room that had a Peloton bike. I was pleasantly surprised by this feature, as it allowed me to work out without having to leave my room. It was a great way to start my day without having to interact with other guests in the fitness area. The hotel also had a full fitness center, which was nice to have as an option. Apple Fitness was connected to Peloton, making it even easier to work out. I highly recommend taking advantage of this amenity, as it was a great way to stay active during my stay. The hotel also had a nice running and walking path around the property, providing plenty of opportunities to get outside and enjoy some sunshine and fresh air. The restaurant located in the lobby, called Punch Bowl, was also a pleasant surprise. Check out my review on that for more information. Lastly, I have to commend the staff for being so accommodating and sweet. My room was ready before I even arrived, and the digital key made it easy to access my room quickly. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Hilton Garden Inn and highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

However we wanted the rooms next to each other or opposite sides. We stayed one day in Hyatt in Waltham and it was a terrible experience so decided to move to Watertown Marriott in residential because it was more convenient for us. First night in Boston we visited the property and the front desk lady denied us because she couldn't find two rooms next to each other so we came back again next morning to talk to the management. The front desk supervisor Ms. Luana Fortes, helped us tremendously and she talked to her manager Korinne Robertson to give us a wonderful rate since we were staying a long period of time and also she managed to give us a free parking during our stay. I am very grateful for Luana's kindness and should mention that if it was not for her profession and motivation on her duties and job we would have taken our business elsewhere. General the hotel is very clean and good location. Very convenient walking distance for shopping. It's next to a huge Target and Arsenal mall which has a lot of options for dinning and shopping and movie theater... Breakfast was terrible! The breakfast team is very lazy and they take a lot of time to refill the food and tables in the morning were very dirty. My wife had to clean our table every morning for us to use it. Options are very limited and morning coffee was bad. The rest of the staff cleaning team inside the rooms were good and kind and did a good job. General we had a great long stay in the hotel thanks to Luana F. And her colleagues. Thank you.

I got this hotel because I was going to see a concert close by and I'm glad I found this hotel. Upon entering a beautiful and nice welcome by Roger, who was funny, had all the best recommendations and broke all the details down about the hotel. The entrance area (waiting area) was so cozy and beautiful. They had an assortment of fashionable chairs, a beautiful fireplace and this place was so colorful which I enjoyed, very brought. The breakfast was delicious a good assortment of everything. And a huge area to eat downstairs or go up to your room and enjoy. Now when you head up there's so much artwork everywhere, I love this. The room was so cozy and big, the bathroom was HUGE! I got a suite, so it had a kitchen, a room with a pull out couch and a pretty nice sized bedroom and a huge bathroom like I said. Upon entering we had a street view which I enjoyed and realized this place was so well put together. The vibes were just perfect. The bed was super comfy. I literally had no complaints at all. I've never stayed at a hotel in MA that has shopping plazas and markets right near by, walking distance this is so convenient. I would for SURE stay here again. The employees all were very kind, didn't matter what shift they all were attentive and kind. Great job, I loved it.

Everything reasonable was really far outside of Boston, but then we stumbled across Anthony's Townhouse online. It is right in the heart of everything. You are extremely close to all the sights and restaurants. All of their rooms are extremely spacious with very big closets. Each one has its own unique decor. The whole place is extremely clean and housekeeping comes every morning. There is a fridge, microwave and bathroom on each floor. The owners are the most helpful people ever! They helped us find parking, get our T passes and even went through the map with us. There is a T stop right outside their house so you can take it everywhere downtown! I loved not having to take the truck anywhere. There are a few restaurants right across the street. There is also a whole foods. You cannot beat the price and location!! We will definitely be coming back to stay again.

The hotel offered a medical discounted rate and was very clean, all the staff from the front desk to the cleaning service workers were so friendly and helpful! There are plenty of outlets, a mini fridge (no Freezer), microwave and a Keurig in the room. They supply face soap and a generic body wash and shampoo/conditioner combination in one (I always bring my own so I cannot tell you how it is, but it's there). The bathroom is separated into two parts with the sink outside the area the toilet and shower are allowing for privacy when using the actual toilet/showering. One nice thing is that you can get to the food court (McDonald, subways, Charlie's steak, dunking, coffee stand and some other ethnic foods), CVS and the Longwood bar and grill from the elevator in the hotel, so you never have to go outside! There is a beautiful green, quad areas a couple blocks away at Harvard medical school. There are Adirondack chairs, little tables, cornhole, and plenty of shady areas to relax and read in or play on the green space. It was great to have a place to hangout outside of the hotel room! I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Various pastries, fruit, etc., your usual fare (though nothing fancy). Staying this time (I'm still here for the next few days), the breakfast is reallly lackluster now. Bagels, bread, some spreads, cheese, and that's it. There's nothing for protein outside of peanut butter. Three years ago, they used to offer a spinach feta croissant alongside various danishes. Like I know it's continental breakfast, but this is like minimal...even other guests at the hotel have complained as much during breakfast. Now outside of breakfast, the rooms aren't bad...but they need a lot of touch ups. Our toilet flushes...really slowly. The lid of the tank doesn't match the tank size so when you flush, the plug doesn't come up all the way so it takes much longer to flush. The shower water doesn't come up to temp easily either and our shower handle is so loose it can come off. Like it doesn't align to the proper temperature either so you have to guess approximately where it is. Also when we checked in, whoever did housekeeping forgot to give us a comforter. I ran with it the first night thinking maybe due to summer that it was just the sheets. But then I went to my parents room and my husband and I realized they had a comforter. So then we had to request for one from housekeeping... On top of it all, while they offer your usual toiletries, the bottles are so small they only last for three showers or so. In turn, yet again, I had to grab more from housekeeping. Honestly, I wish the previous company came back...cause the current one, really isn't cutting it as a three star hotel. This is starting to function like a 2.5 star hotel situation.
