Seaport Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent
"Thoroughly enjoyed this stay, and can’t wait to return! Aside from the 3:00am fire alarm evacuation adventure (no fault of the hotel’s), every thing about my visit was exceptionally great. Cool hotel, amazing location, friendly and helpful staff, wonderfully spacious and cozy room, solid amenities, and terrific housekeeping. Place is sparklingly clean. Couldn’t recommend more!"

8/10 Good
"This hotel is walking distance to many things. The North end is close by. The room and bathroom is big and spacious, which I liked. I didn’t like the window blinds. There are two blinds that you have to crank a chain to open and close. Then when you raise them up, people across the way can see directly into your room. I felt no privacy. The toilet was temperamental. It seemed to only flush completely at every 3 flushes. Other than that, the hotel and room is nice. The doorman Eddie is very nice and helpful. He gave us suggestions on where to eat and directions on how to get to places."
