Charlesmark Hotel

Easy to reach and very close to downtown, helpful staff and lovely room.

Nice older hotel with everything i needed for a one night business trip!

I’ve stayed at the Charlesmark before and was looking forward to another stay here. The staff is helpful and the hotel is in a prime location. The mattress however was not comfortable and wasn’t able to have a restful nights sleep for the entire four night stay. Keep in mind that I am someone who can usually sleep anywhere. As much as I love the location, I will explore other options for my next trip as a good nights sleep is most important.

Following a family wedding in Cincinnati, and before returning home to the UK, my wife and I stayed here for three nights at the end of of our holiday in the US. We previously stayed for similar lengths of time in Washington and New York when both hotels were really excellent in every way. Sadly, this was not true of the Charlesmark in Boston. Our first night's stay was in a cramped room which was designated a "double". This room 307 is certainly NOT a double with barely enough room to negotiate around the room as well as lack of storage for our baggage.. The bed was a small double and the wardrobe was below table top level with no room to hang my wife's dresses ! The fridge was located so high up that it would be difficult for an average person to access ! The helpful receptionists gave us the opportunity to move to another bigger room 101 which was genuinely a double for the remaining two nights which we took up. Be warned that room 103 which we were also shown has no windows for daylight ! The breakfast was described as continental. This was the lightest continental breakfast that we've ever experienced ! No cereal; no basic meat selection; just bagels, one fruit, coffee/tea. Very poor indeed. The hotel reception/lounge/bar decor was very smart with modern and very clean. The genuine double rooms mentioned were adequate with excellent bath/shower ensuites. The receptionists were also pleasant , courteous and accommodating.

Friendly staff. Clean hotel, very chic. Double bed was on small side but apparently American sizes class it as double which is what we paid for. Was very comfortable. Great location.
