Very nice boutique hotel nestled right in heart of both downtown and waterfront areas. Joia’s restaurant is wonderful and extremely enjoyable with both ambiance and food quality. Nice find and although it can be a bit pricey, it really is a nice find and very good experience I’d highly recommended and will be returning

The staff at Harborside Inn was very friendly and welcoming. While the hotel is older, it adds character to the experience. The rooms are small but have high ceilings, and the bed was comfortable, making for a good night’s sleep. The biggest reason to stay here is the unbeatable location. The Blue Line subway entrance is right in front of the hotel. The New England Aquarium is just two blocks away, and Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market are one block down the street. This area offers endless shopping, food vendors, and attractions, all within easy walking distance. Boston is extremely walkable and commuter friendly, so there is no need to rent a car. There are also several bars and restaurants nearby for evening options. Overall, you truly cannot beat the location, and for that reason alone, Harborside Inn is a great choice.

The Staff was very welcoming. This hotel is older but that is part of the charm. The location can’t be beat! The train station is right in front, the Aquarium is 2 blocks away, the Faneuil Hall/Quincy Market is a block away. The amount of shopping options and food options alone make this location a winner! We didn’t even need to rent a car.

The room was comfortable but it was not the kind of hotel that we usually booked. I understand the price was reasonable and we only stay at the hotel from 10pm to 11am the next day. Common areas looked comfortable but very simple, withouth any modern decoration.
