The room is nice and so is the young person whom which graduated from Yale covering every angle on Sunday nights. Aside from that, BEWARE of parking, organization, diligence, overall competence of desk/management. We valeted our rental car as we all know Charles street is a nightmare. The hotel, “has no control and has nothing to do,” with the valet even though the convenient VALET cone sits gingerly in front of the front doors. Our RENTAL car was stuck on a freight elevator, no answers for over an hour just stuck sitting. With no coordination and being told to sit tight and pray until 5:15pm, the car magically arrived. We got about .25 miles away and received another call by the hotel asking if we found the valet key ring!! ABSOLUTE DISASTER do not pay or park there, quite frankly even though the hotel Is nice nothing worth this chaos. I had to pay for a half a** coffee amidst this chaos. Zero ownership for errors, BEWARE!!

Had an amazing time at the Whitney. Front desk service was impeccable, friendly and was ‘just’ the added touch I would expect of a property of this caliber. I really do look forward to my next time in Boston and hope to stay at the Whitney.

The air conditioning was not working properly. I mentioned it to front desk. They said that they have had other problems like this and that they would fix it but they never did. For the cost of staying at this hotel, there should not be any issues with the basics like air con. Also, it was very noisy; inconsiderate guests make lots of noise in the hallways well after midnight.

Mostly perfect

Location is superb. Friendly staff. Clean and modern rooms. Blackout curtains. Nice toiletries. Had an issue with our a/c at 1am and you can’t adjust the fan speed of the a/c which stinks as you do need white noise due to hearing people above / next door.
