    There was nothing that I would rank as negative - truly the whole experience of the Lenox was positive with nothing negative to report at all.

    Location wise the Hotel could not be any better - its right in the heart of downtown so you are literally a walk from anything. The staff are first class and super helpful - and Irish Bar Solas is fantastic and the measures are of a very generous nature :)

    The Staff were so friendly, so professional, and I think they add more value to the hotel and they make it even special beside the location. They deserve five stars .. thanks to all of them specially Mike who helped me find better room during our celebration of my son graduation.

    Great old hotel that has been nicely refurbished & updated. Since it was our first stay with them, we were upgraded to a fireplace suite (the only hotel rooms in Boston with wood burning fireplaces)! Great bars & restaurants on site. Friendly & helpful staff. Back Bay section of Boston is a great location for exploring the city & close to the T (subway).

    The hotel has been around for 120 years and the bathroom might not have been updated since the ‘90’s.

    The staff is phenomenal. Absolutely everyone I met was super friendly and knew their stuff. Really good service. The location was terrific. the rooms were a good size with very comfortable mattresses. Though we didn’t end up using it our room had a working fireplace!

    There was no coffee machine in the room, there was reasoning for it from the hotel but the coffee at the self service station did not taste that good unfortunately. But that might just be my European taste buds...

    The hotel had a really nice and comforting vibe to it with the darker lobby! The room itself was also incredibly nice, definitely more on the upscale side of hotels you can stay in. There was a separate closet where the fridge, iron and ironing board were stored, very handy.

    We had to leave it!

    From the moment we arrived at the hotel, it stood out from the rest of the buildings around it! This was an "old style" unique boutique hotel that oozed in character! We were met by door staff that rushed over to aid us with our cases and bring them to our reception. We were asked if we needed any water after our long trip from Ireland. (It was needed, along with something stiffer😊) We were "checked in" efficiently with courtesy and professionalism, and the tone was set.. The manager of the hotel 'Paul' came over to us and practically "put his arm" around us with a "welcome to Boston and welcome to The Lennox" greeting. Paul went above and beyond for us, and we were shown to our room (which was huge, and were greeted with Lindth chocolates on the bed, water in the fridge, the room was fantastic and luxurious) We then proceeded to a bar to "wet the lips" (a choice of 4 x bars, all unique styles). We were met by John, who whipped up two "creamy" pints of Arthur's finest Guiness and some fine wines for the girls and cokes for the kids. John knew his stuff and left no stone unturned for us as did Janelle and the rest of his colleagues during our stay. I could say so much more about the beautiful foods we ate and more about the great staff that helped us on our trip. Thanks to Paul and the guys - we have found a new home in Boston when we we come back again. Thanks again, Danny, Tracy, Martin, Pamela, and kids.
