Frommer's Review

This striking 14-story waterfront hotel on the edge of the airport offers unobstructed views of the harbor and city skyline. The good-size guest rooms afford dramatic views, especially from the higher floors. Extensively renovated in 2007, they have oversize work desks and a sophisticated no-frills style that contrasts with luxurious touches like pillow-top beds. The hotel is primarily a convention and business destination, with easy access to the airport (a 5-min. shuttle-bus ride away) and to downtown Boston -- water taxis, which serve the adjacent dock, make the trip in 7 minutes. Sightseers on a tight budget for either time (on public transit) or money (for parking, cabs, or water taxis) will be better off closer to downtown. Bonus: The building's tower is a lighthouse -- the airport control tower manages the beacon so it doesn't interfere with runway lights.

Facilities: Restaurant (New England) and lounge w/seasonal outdoor seating; 40-ft. indoor pool; exercise room with harbor view; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; 24-hr. airport shuttle service; business center; room service until midnight; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning; executive-level rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility.
