The Revolution Hotel

Hotel · South End

@cntraveler

"The Revolution is the result of a to-the-studs renovation of a former historic YWCA and hostel in Boston's South End—so while the developers outfitted the building with utilitarian-chic rooms and art-filled community spaces, it’s clear from the smallest room categories with shared bathrooms that this building had a previous life. Young travelers flock to the property for competitively priced rooms: The Revolution does a great job of delivering serious, stylish value in the heart of a city where hotel rooms can easily cost twice as much as they do here. If you’re flying solo and cringe at the idea of shared bathrooms, there’s an en-suite, entry-level category so you can keep your privacy and stick to your budget; pairs may want to upgrade to the Studio Suites or newly-added Revolution Lofts, which are located next-door to the main hotel building. The Revolution sits at the confluence of Back Bay, the South End, and downtown Boston, in the heart of none of those neighborhoods but a two-minute walk to each of them; the property offers complimentary bike rentals so you can cruise around and explore, too." - Shannon McMahon, Todd Plummer
