The service and the staff were excellent and the property is in a great location for touring Boston. The room we had was nice and had everything we needed. A coffee pot in the room would have been good but there was free coffee in the lobby. I would definitely consider staying at the Newbury Guest House again.

My husband and I were visiting Boston to attend Red Sox game and explore the city. We wanted to be able to walk to Fenway Park. We loved the location of the hotel! Walkable to the game but also an easier walk to many dining options and shopping area. We walked to Boston Common and Prudential Tower. Hotel was very clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly, even had an umbrella available to use on the one rainy day we had while there!

It was lovely. It was like we were in our own little oasis in the middle of the city. The location was perfect for walking anywhere we wanted to go. Lots of shops, restaurants, and sights to see nearby. From the front staff to maintenance and cleaning crew, the entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. On-site parking was tight but so convenient. The room was clean and offered plenty of seating, a lovely fireplace, and amazing view. We’ll definitely stay again!
