For an upscale hotel the shower was very disappointing. Low water pressure and only luke warm. The weather was cold and snowy so I was looking forward to a hot shower after walking around the city. Not to be had!

It’s our second year in a row staying at The Godfrey. The staff were great! Our room was nice but a bit small for us. Our room last year was larger. When we come next year, I will request a larger room on the 11 floor overlooking Washington St. Happy Holidays From The Leadbetters 😊

The staff were incredible and couldn’t do enough for us. Our room was clean with a good size washroom. Closets were limited and shower wasn’t very hot. A short walk to the commons and shopping, the location was ideal Lots of great Irish Pubs with amazing service

We really enjoyed our recent stay at the Godfrey. From the moment we arrived the staff was friendly and welcoming. They could not do enough for you. Loved the welcome drink coupons! While the rooms may be smaller than some of the newer hotels, they are very well appointed and comfortable. We loved the convenience of being able to walk to many popular locations and being so close to many restaurants. Don’t miss the coffee at George Howell! Ive seen comments about the “urban fee” but it’s all very clearly spelled out when you book so it should not be a surprise. We would definitely stay here again the next time we are in town.

I love this hotel! The staff and service are always impeccable. The staff member checking me in even offered to send a drink (and chocolates after he found out I didn't drink) to my room after I mentioned that it was my birthday! Plus, the room is lovely as always. It also helps that the hotel leads right into the restaurant Ruka next door. One of the best dining experiences in the city!

First time in Boston and couldn't ask for a better stay. Walking distance to everything! Easy to navigate from Godfrey throughout the area. Service was wonderful and attentive. I mostly definitely want to visit Boston again and without hesitation would stay at the Godfrey again!

The Godfrey Hotel in Boston is truly a hidden gem. From the moment you arrive, the staff delivers exceptional service, from the doorman to the receptionist, and especially Lilly, whose warm and welcoming spirit shines through. Their professionalism is unmatched. The location is another highlight, offering easy access to countless bars, restaurants, and shopping centers. They went above and beyond to help me celebrate my birthday in the best way possible!
