    We loved the location and the fact that this was a different experience. It was cheaper than other options available in Boston that week. Chad our host went out of his way to help us and we were grateful for this. We would stay again in the future. Everything was catered for - we loved having a good coffee machine and the opportunity to sit on the deck.

    We liked great location, wonderfully helpful staff, clean facilities, complimentary breakfast. There are lots of activities organized for socializing and exploring the city. We had the chance to chat with guests staying here from all around the world. Gave us lots of tips and suggestions when visiting their countries. Roommates were respectful and quiet so we got plenty of rest and slept soundly. Even though the bathrooms were shared (numerous throughout the floor), only one person can use it at the time which was great in terms of privacy.

    Great location and comfy bed. Also water, cookies and apples every day! Quiet location despite being next to an intersection. Beacon hill at your doorstep. Charles street has great boutiques. Love how you’re next to the esplanade.

    A nice and cozy house with a great host. The location is situated in a quiet neighborhood, not so close to Boston downtown, but you can easily go there by bus (station is 2 minutes walk) and the the metro.

    Loved the location of this hotel as Newbury Guest House is surrounded by high quality restaurants, bars small boutiques and larger retailers. Rooms were quiet even though ours faced the street. The service and ambience we experienced was exceptional.
