Overview

Located near Boston North Station and TD Garden
Guest rooms are on the small side
Giving the historic architecture of Boston's Flatiron Building a modern look, The Boxer offers boutique accommodations in the heart of downtown, within walking distance of classic and modern-day attractions like the Freedom Trail and TD Garden. Aside from its West End location, recent guests appreciated the comfy, albeit small, rooms, which feature tufted headboards and open-frame wardrobes. Other in-room amenities guests can enjoy include Keurig coffee makers, access to free Wi-Fi and marble bathrooms. Recent visitors also commended the staff members throughout the hotel, saying everyone from the valet to the cleaning crew was courteous and personable. After taking in the historic sights, guests can sample the fare at Finch restaurant and bar, which keeps it local by serving up New England classics for breakfast and dinner.

Lonely Planet

READ MORE 

Exemplifying the up-and-coming character of this once-downtrodden district, this new boutique hotel occupies a fully restored 19th-century flatiron building on the western edge of the Bulfinch Triangle.

AAA

Room layouts efficiently use the somewhat limited space to provide both comfort and function for guests.

Frommer's

READ MORE 

On a nondescript street near North Station, the 1904 flatiron-shape building stands out; the odd exterior means that every guest room has a unique layout, including triangular units in the pointy end (and a handful of rooms with twin-and-full-size bunk beds).

Frommer's Very Highly Recommended
