The Parker House has many claims to fame, including when John F. Kennedy announced his candidacy for US Congress in 1946. Something to contemplate while eating the Boston Cream Pie invented in-house.
Had spontaneous dinner w/ a friend; great drinks, small, but good menu, I recommend the oysters. Very friendly , but unobtrusive service. Great atmosphere, must go & see.
Nothing beats a slice of Boston Cream Pie at Omni Parker House. This decadent dessert has two layers of sponge cake with a pastry cream in between, topped with a layer of chocolate ganache . Read more
The carrot cake is gluten free and it's to die for. The Boston creme pie is good but love the carrot cake . Reserve a spot at "the kennedy table," where JFK proposed to Jackie
boston cream pie takes you to dessert heaven. $10 a piece shareable for two, but if you love desserts don't share :)

Hit up The Last Hurrah in the lobby if you are staying here but don't want to venture too far out. It's a class establishment.
Had the lobster roll with baked beans , more like a lobster salad roll . Beans taste like regular canned sweet beans. The schrod was so so. The MA cream pie is good, it is more “cakey” than I expected.
A must when playing tourist in Boston. Feels like a throwback to another era plus the Boston cream pie is swoon worthy.
Great service from a friendly staff in an historic hotel . Excellent downtown location.
You have to order the Boston Cream Pie . It was invented at this historic place.
The Parker's Bar is a nice place to hang out; it features great drinks and a fireplace as well as stained-glass windows.
I recommend staying here. Quiet . Old hotels have thick walls! A bath! Great location. Good eats.
When visiting the Parker House Bar - ask for Joy. She is a peach !!! Don't forget to have the Boston Creme Pie !
Nice hotel ,the room we got was very small but other rooms mightn't be.but good hotel good location
