"Following a major renovation, this Back Bay hotel offers posh, chinoiserie-tinged rooms and some of the neighborhood’s largest suites, plus connecting-room and family packages (complete with in-room tents and games). The hotel’s 16,000-square-foot spa and wellness center features steam rooms, vitality pools, multi-day well-being retreats, sound bathing, sleep massages, and custom fitness programs ideal for marathon training, while a round-the-clock concierge can arrange VIP experiences like private Fenway tours, tall-ship sails, and brewery tastings." - Bailey Berg, Laura Dannen Redman
