Top Riverside Hotel Reviews

The Midtown Hotel MOD Collection by Sonesta

10/10 Excellent

"."

The Revolution Hotel

8/10 Good

"Giving 4 out of 5 for two things: 1) did not enjoy the curtain that separates the shower from the toilet in my private room and 2) a little further out from main areas that you'd have to walk more vs. taking public transportation (also depending where you're coming from). Consider an extra 5 minutes to the main parts of Boston when visiting but honestly, not a bad walk. General building was nice and tidy, staff was prompt and nice. A little coffee shop also accessible inside of the hotel lobby."
