Set amidst a lovely large tree lined street in the district of Back Bay, the elegant hotel The Eliot has belonged to the same family for decades. It is a little further away from local sights like the Boston Common or Public Garden, yet still only a short 20 minute walk. One of the best restaurants in town, the UNI, is located here, so book your table in advance and enjoy an outstanding meal during your stay. You will be spoiled for options of cafes and restaurants quite near the hotel as Newbury Street is only a few blocks away. With only 80 rooms, the few guests enjoy plenty of attention from the lovely thoughtful staff. The overall décor is a charming European style, without opulence and very discrete. The standard rooms are cozy, but most rooms are suites with two Queen size beds and an adjacent living room, convenient to sleep up to four adults. Some rooms even have a small kitchen, remnants of the dwelling’s previous use as a small residential building. The beds are marvelously comfortable and all bathrooms are marble. If you like using a fitness center, hotel guests can make complimentary use of the full service gym located next door.
