The staff went above and beyond to help make my stay special
It was perfect!!
My wife and I have stayed here before and have always enjoyed the experience. Last night was was another example of why we keep coming back. Upon checking in we received a complimentary upgrade to the Baseball Suite. The room was phenomenal. Corey at the front desk helped me get some friends a last minute reservation and could not have been more friendly. Overall a great stay.
Good location with convenience store nearby 10-15 min from shopping and restaurants Just next to subway or metro
no kettle or complimentary tea and coffee in room very slow free wifi
Wifi was terrible. You couldn't even get high speed wireless in the lobby. You had to pay for it and even then it was spotty at best. For the money we paid for the room, reliable internet service is not too much to ask.
Boston's Best
Didn't even know it was the Boston Redsox Official Hotel. Lots of sports memorabilia, great creature comforts, staff eager to please. Jonathan at front desk was the standout employee that made our stay even better. He had great tips, suggestions for sights & food and truly made us welcome.
Having to leave
Best beds, pillows, and staff!
The staff at the Hotel Commonwealth was friendly and accommodating. My Mom and I stayed one night in order to attend the Patriot's Victory Parade, and though we opted for a late checkout, we ended up getting stuck on the parade route. We called to let the hotel know, and they were very kind. Instead of charging us for half a day, they went and packed up our room for us, and held our luggage in the bell closet. The hotel was beautiful and the pillows and beds were some of the best I've ever slept in! Will definitely stay again.
The staff was very nice. Service impeccable. Beds were so comfortable!!!! We will be back!!!!
There is not a single thing I did not like about this hotel. It was wonderful!
Shower head needs replacing room 410
Felt like Home...but cooler!
Service was great, Room and amenities were lush. For a BU Alumni attending some University events it was perfectly convenient! Valet was a little pricey...park on the street if you can but the Valet guys offered great service!
Valet parking was pricey for Boston!
Room was great; location superb to Fenway for Billy Joel concert, and staff was fine. Valet was extraordinary! However, had to negotiate with staff at desk to get room reserved.
Booked at Hotel.com and reserved the Fenway Room which is shown on their website as looking over Fenway Park. When we asked for it upon arrival desk clerk told us a lot of people THINK it looks over Fenway but it doesn't. Even if it did there was construction obliterating any view. (Picture on Hotel.com misleading: hotel is on Beacon Street a block from Fenway Park). He gave us a "Kenmore" room which looked into alley-type street. Asked for refund of difference, told not done, but upgraded to suite. Satisfied with new room..
Smelled good, friendly people, the room, the fancieness
Issues with my prepaid credit card apparently they're not accepted. This should be noted somewhere when booking. I didn't have another credit card or enough cash. In the end it was worked out but it was unneeded stress. When checking out (645 am) we needed to wait for a bit. There was no staff at desk
We travel alot and I don't think I have ever stayed in a nicer hotel. The rooms were exceptional from cleanliness of the rooms to the friendliness of the staff. I will never stay in another hotel in Boston but thisone.
Nothing!
Very good hotel, spacious high quality rooms, professional and friendly staff
Location wise okay but not superb but on top of tube station and taxis enough available
The location is fantastic, service friendly and helpful, and the room immaculate. The 2 restaurants downstairs are among the best in the city.
Great location near fenway and bu. The staff, while very nice and commenting about my surgery, were not very thoughtful in putting someone who just had knee surgery in the furthest room from the elevators.
Poor choice of room for a disabled person. Very nice cheese plate, but I would have rather had a room not at the end of the hallway post surgery.
The staff were courtious, helpful, and attentive
I would have liked to have had tea making facilities in room. (I think that guests would only tend to use such facilities only at times when Commonwealth Coffee is not available).
The location
The TV was not working
The comfort of the rooms and the location.
Wonderful location, extremely convenient to BU and the T. Easy to get to off the Mass Pike. Helpful staff. Comfortable room, great room service.
Parking a bit on the steep side...$42
The hotel was excellent in every way- clean and luxurious. Quiet.
the room was terrific, and the service very detailed and professional
It is such a beautiful hotel, seeming to cater to an upper class, but there was no place to go for a quiet drink, or meal. There were three resataurant/bars and they were all deafeningly loud. Please think about an alternative.
