Some Things That May Be Different
While some of the details and experiences of your stay will be different, our promise to you is that the feeling you get when you are here will be the same!
- Your Room – Trust that your room will be unoccupied for at least 24 hours prior to your arrival. We are taking room safety very seriously and will not enter your room during your stay unless specifically requested. This does mean that we will not be performing daily housekeeping for both your health & safety as well as that of our staff. Should you need a refresh of towels or bath amenities during your stay, please don’t hesitate to let us know and we will bring them right up to you!
- Your Morning – Our locally sourced coffee as well as our tea are still available, we just need to prepare your cup for you. Let anyone in the lobby know what you’d like from our coffee & tea menu, and we’ll make it just the way you like!
- Your Business – Per state regulations, we had to close our business center. Should you have any printing or other business needs, just call guest reception and we will help.
- Your Fitness – Per state regulations, we had to close our fitness center as well. The good news is that it’s summer in Boston and we have some great suggestions on where you can run, bike, or walk right in our neighborhood!
- Your Tastebuds – Solas, our Irish pub, is open for indoor & patio dining for lunch & dinner as well as room delivery for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. More details can be found here.
- Your Car – Valet Parking is limited due to state restrictions. Please pull up to our Exeter Street entrance to speak with our doorman about self parking options.
