Frommer's Review

In an excellent location overlooking the Boston Marathon finish line, the Charlesmark has a boutique feel and great prices. It's both luxurious and -- literally, not figuratively -- no frills. The sleek, contemporary design evokes a yacht, using custom furnishings (and pillow-top mattresses) to pack plenty of comfort into the compact spaces of the 1892 building. The rooms are small, but with enough space to hold a comfortable chair. The amenities don't challenge the perks of the large hotels in this neighborhood, but they're more than sufficient for most business or leisure travelers. The second-floor lobby holds a computer and printer for guests' use. Rates include breakfast and light refreshments such as bottled water and fruit, part of management's policy not to pile a lot of incidentals onto your bill (also the rationale for free local phone calls). The only real drawback is that the building has just one elevator -- and if that's your biggest problem, you're doing pretty well.

Facilities:
Lounge; access to nearby health club ($10); laundry service; rooms for those w/limited mobility
