Everything about The Godfrey was fabulous. Our trip started with the very warm welcome we received on our arrival. All of the staff at the hotel were exceptionally friendly and we were made to feel “special” every step of the way. The rooms and all the communal areas were spotlessly clean. The hotel is perfectly placed for accessing all the main sites in Boston. Definitely recommend this hotel.

Our room was clean, the beds were very comfortable. Any questions we had for the staff was answered with a smile. We did not eat at the continental breakfast because my friend has gluten restrictions. But they did recommend a restaurant two doors down that was excellent. Great location for walking to Boston common.. the valet service was smooth. Our plane left very early in the morning and they had our car out front for us ready to go.

Room was great with a nice skyline view. Staff were very friendly. Candy cart was a nice touch. Ate at attached restaurant and was a great meal with even better drinks. Super short walk to opera house. Great breakfast and coffee morning after. Will defiantly plan another stay/Theatre visit.

I came on my birthday and everyone made it very enjoyable. They even brought me champagne on the night of my birthday. Average size room, i would say big by boston standards with a king size bed and still room to stretch. We came around halloween and they had candy out and hot apple cider. It was really close to everything and overall just a great stay. Staff was really nice and professional and I had a great experience for the value.
