From the moment you step out the front door, the Godfrey’s location feels just right — central but not chaotic. It sits in Downtown Crossing, putting you squarely in Boston’s vibrant heart, yet tucked just a block off the busiest thoroughfares, so you get a quieter feel when indoors. You’re a two-minute walk from the Downtown Crossing MBTA station, and Boston Common is only about 8 minutes on foot. The hotel is flanked by shops and theaters, and many of Boston’s top historical sites—like the Old State House, Old South Meeting House, and Freedom Trail—are within comfortable walking distance. The Godfrey in Boston hits the sweet spot between convenience and comfort. Its stellar location puts you within walking distance of historic sites, shopping, and top dining. Add in dependable cleanliness, quiet retreats when you want them, and easy access to the airport, and you’ve got a hotel that’s ideal for both first-time visitors and return travelers alike.

Exceptional Stay – Highly Recommended!

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. The room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed, with every detail thought through for comfort. The bed was extremely comfortable, and I slept so well. Location was perfect too, close to everything I needed.
