Fodor's Review:
It's perfect, if you like the anonymity of a large hotel and a location that's convenient to everything. And you can't beat the oversize rooms, the big, comfy beds, and the availability of a pool and hot tub. This 26-story hotel occupies a corner pocket between the Prudential Center and the Christian Science Church complex. Deluxe rooms with contemporary furnishings are done in blues, golds, and burnished maple and have wall-to-wall windows overlooking the Back Bay and Fenway Park. (Views vary from room to room. You might have a great view of Boston's iconic neon Citgo sign! Bostonians would consider this a good thing, as the Citgo sign is a beloved -- if odd -- landmark.) Generally, rooms above the ninth floor have the best views. Bathrooms have oversize showers. Try one of the older rooms, which have windows that open (some even have balconies). Pros: Large rooms and bathrooms, nice views, better-than-expected restaurant. Cons: Somewhat oddly situated; no VIP floor.
