They had upgraded our room without even asking us, very pleased, staff very friendly and helpful, parking cost $45.00 per night

Convenient location! We went to a show at the House of Blues, just a couple minute walk. Clean room, and bathroom. Friendly staff at the front desk. Had a great breakfast at the fenmore grill

The property is an old building thus a Deluxe room was small. There wasn't room for a chair.

Great place, just slightly dated as far as the property goes. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is great and within walking distance of a bunch of restaurants, Boston University (across the street), and Fenway (across the street).

Nice place with a lot of history. Could use some updating though.

the room was loud and hot and humid. Gym was disappointing.

Nice staff. Rather old hotel. Good location. Overall satisfied.

We could walk to Fenway Park and lots of good restaurants.

Property is old and may need to be updated but it was clean. Room was VERY small but did what was needed. The room was on the inner side of the building with no view, only if the air units that were extremely loud 24/7. The restaurant at the hotel is only open for breakfast and its absolutely horrible food.

Location was great. We walked to the venue that we went to see and plenty of restaurants within the walking distance. Breakfast in restaurant downstairs was convenient before heading out.

It’s an old hotel. But it was clean, accessible and steps away from Fenway. We’ll be back!

Great location near Fenway Park~very close walk to baseball game! Watching all the traffic jam, and $40 price at parking garages, we were very happy!

The Buckminster is certainly serviceable, and in a great location near Fenway Park. It just has no "feel" or "personality." I wish there had been a valet parking option because the garage is a pain to get into and out of (and parking still costs $40/night.)
