The 21 Best Hotels in Boston

"There are few façades in Boston more iconic than the Fairmont, which has stood next to the Boston Public Library since 1912. Still, the hotel has managed to keep the guest rooms updated. There are the elegant fabrics and marble you'd expect, as well as some custom black-and-white sketches of Boston that add a modern touch. Make sure to ask for a room overlooking Copley Square so you can gaze out upon one of the best views in the city while enjoying one of the incredible breakfast options on the decadent room service menu." - Shannon McMahon, Todd Plummer
