Frommer's Review

The "grande dame of Boston" is a classic old-fashioned grand hotel, with opulent public spaces that recall the days when traveling was an event, not an ordeal. Built in 1912, the seven-story Renaissance-revival building faces beautiful Copley Square. The spacious, painstakingly maintained guest rooms have a residential feel, with plush draperies and upholstery and custom furnishings, including oversize desks and pillow-top mattresses. Rooms that face the square afford better views than those that overlook busy Dartmouth Street; my favorites are theme suites celebrating local treasures such as the Boston Symphony. Known for superb service, the Copley Plaza boasts countless details (inventive weekend packages, a resident black Lab guests can book for a walk or run) that have made it a favorite with generations of Bostonians and visitors.

Facilities: Restaurant (steakhouse); lounge (Oak Bar); exercise room; access to nearby health club ($15); concierge; tour desk; courtesy car; business center; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning; concierge-level rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility.
