Big, contemporary hotel with a resident dog that draws both business travelers and tourists
The Hyatt Regency Boston is a huge,
high-rise hotel with interior hallways to rooms built around four-story atriums. The hotel completed extensive renovations in June 2015, and the stylish decor is in a sophisticated palette of purple,
Location
In the heart of the theater district, with easy subway access; Faneuil Hall is within a 15-minute walk
The Hyatt Regency Boston sits in the city's theater district, a five-minute walk from the restaurants, shopping, and T station in Downtown Crossing. The neighborhood is filled with high-rise office buildings and is quiet (but not desolate) at night. Faneuil Hall, Quincy Market, and the Freedom Trail are about 15 minutes away on foot. The financial district, Newbury Street, and South Station are all about 10 minutes' walk. Boston Common is within five minutes' walk. Fenway Park is a 10-minute drive or 20 minutes away by rail. Logan Airport is a 10- to 15-minute drive.
Rooms
Spacious and modern, with comfy beds and large flat-screen HDTVs
Rooms at the Hyatt Regency Boston are big,
clean, and contemporary, with king- or queen-size beds and pillow-top mattresses. All have sleek decor in subdued shades of brown and taupe; expect leather headboards, built-in nightstands, upholstered armchairs, and attractive wall-to-wall carpeting. Bathrooms are clean and modern with lots of counter space, large lighted mirrors, and shower/tub combos. Free toiletries and hairdryers are provided. Some have interesting sliding barn-style doors. Guest should be aware that most rooms have limited closet space. Rooms have laptop safes and free Wi-Fi, though premium-speed Wi-Fi costs extra.
Business travelers will likely appreciate the quality soundproofing; we could only hear minor noise from the corridor during our visit, so guests won’t be kept up by noisy neighbors or crazy downtown traffic. There are tables instead of traditional work desks, to make business travelers feel more at home, and there are lots of convenient electric outlets. Coffeemakers and mini-fridges are provided. The serenity makes using the iPod docks and flat-screen HDTVs with pay movies all the more enjoyable.
The hotel offers a wide choice of room types, all the way up to the enormous, fully decked out VIP Suite complete with wet bar, dressing area, and views of the historic Boston State House. Business Plan rooms include free breakfast and Wall Street Journal delivery.
