We stayed at the Harborside Inn for 3 nights and we found it very relaxing, clean and adequate. The beds were comfy, the bathroom were on the smaller side but were very nice with marble and stuff and they were clean... The only two draw back I found is we didn't have a view, as our window faced the back... More

I stayed for two nights while attending a conference at the Marriott Long Wharf across the street. I figured, why pay the high Marriott room rate when I can stay a stone's throw away, get a bigger room and free internet to boot? After staying there, my conclusion is that it's a good hotel for tourists given the price and... More

Pro's- number one is location!! Hotel is across for Marriott Waterfront hotel steps from Quincy Market & Faneuil Hall. Price ($209) was about $70/night less than Courtyard and $100 less than other ones I was looking at. The only type of room available was interior king. It was large, clean and had a very modern, spacious bathroom. Staff was very... More

Great cheap hotel in the heart of Boston. The hotel is located next to the long wharf and just behind the Faneuil hall. It has very nice rooms and great atmosphere. I was glad I could stay in the city for a night, and didn't have to search for cheap places in Boston neighborhood. More

We are so happy we stay at the Harborside Inn in Boston. A small, clean was close to everything we wanted to visit during our stay. It is steps from the Aquarium station of the T and coming in from the airport was a breeze. The staff was especially helpful as we looked for the best places to eat! More

Upon arriving at the Harborside Inn, a small hotel nestled across the street from Faneuil Hall, my guest and I were greeted by no one. Upon entering, we were greeted by no one. Carrying 2 large bags each, we were rather rudely told that there was no service to handle our luggage. The room was rather spacious, but completely spartan--devoid... More

Amazing Location! 1 block to the Market, Freedom Trail, Harbor, Trolley Tours, Harbor Tours and the T is right outside. I could not have chosen a better location! Basically everything in Boston is walkable but to be that close to the market and the Harbor was great. The hotel was great. The room was perfect for 2 people and the... More

We stayed at the Harborside for 7 nights in April 2012 in a street view room on the 4th floor. I would absolutely recommend this hotel. Location and convenience were great - 5 minute or less walk to Fanieul Hall/Quincy Market, Long Wharf, and lots of amazing restaurants. The blue line T is literally right outside the front door -...

Stayed here the summer before last. Perhaps a little late for a review. However,the quality of this place is worth noting. Spent the weekend in Boston. It was the perfect location to access various tourist attractions. Loved the hotel interior. Great style and high-end quality. Rooms are smartly appointed. A little noise from the nightclub next door but nothing that... More
