Frommer's Review

The Doubletree is conveniently located in Chinatown, within easy walking distance of both downtown and the Back Bay, and is a much better deal than most competitors in either of those neighborhoods. The six-story building is a former high school with high ceilings and compact, well-designed rooms. Ask for a unit that faces away from busy Washington Street, and your view will be of a cityscape rather than the hospital across the street (Tufts-New England Medical Center). Nice details include Asian touches in the contemporary decor and features such as a fish tank in the lobby, installed in accordance with the principles of feng shui. Don't confuse this hotel with its all-suite corporate sibling near Cambridge. This Doubletree adjoins the Wang YMCA of Chinatown, and room rates include access to its extensive facilities.

Facilities:
Restaurant and lounge (American/Asian); cafe; access to adjoining YMCA w/Olympic-size pool; concierge; business center; room service until 11:30pm; same-day dry cleaning; executive-level rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
