This is a 5-star hotel where guests are spoiled to their heart's content. This also has a perfect city location which will take you near key attractions like Newbury Street, a great place to shop.

Vanessa Borges

Luxury , classic and well maintained hotel . Well prepared staff and strategic located in front of the Boston Public Park . Looks like a 5 star. ????????

The old Ritz-Carlton is for the business traveler with a formidable expense account or the tourist going all out. Rates start at more than $200 and amp up quickly, with the Taj often sold out. Read more

The Taj used to be a Ritz, and it came with a traditional afternoon tea service, replete with live classical music . Go there to enjoy low tea à la aristocrats of the past.

The hotel lays on a beautiful location, very close to the main attractions in the city centre. The rooms are very clean and spacious . And the service is great indeed.

The brunch is amazing! Eggs Benedictine, oysters; sushi ; sirloin ; everything! It's pricey ...

Rob Carroll

Beautiful hotel , amazing staff and housekeepers. Perfect location along Boston Public Garden and Newbury St. Huge rooms!

Dianne Newman

The Taj never disappoints! The staff is friendly and welcoming ~ always. There is an elegant, old world charm. Be sure to book tea on the second floor.

Sofia Papastamelos

Check out the beautiful tea room for a classy afternoon tea with friends.

Drink your tea pinky out at the Taj Boston's rooftop champagne brunch buffet on the hotel 's 17th floor. The meal will cost you but the sweeping views of the city are free. Read more

Best little secret from brunch . If you want a good brunch and not have to wait. Go to the Taj.

Yuko

Certainly not going to complain about the Molton Brown products in the bathroom . If you get a room facing the park , enjoy the sun streaming in!

Alex Velo

It's a classic hotel . Not a big fan of its decoration. Rooms are big and the ones with views very luminous. The interior ones are dark.

STA Consignment

A hotel that is classic Boston, from the room decor to the food. Check out the buffet brunch if you ever get the chance!

Dustin Todd Rennells

Instead of lunch at the cafe , if you're there at 2 or 4 on a weekend, do tea in the upper lounge . The mini sandwiches and scones are insane! Or, if you opt for the bar , you get an awesome snack assor

Kaitlin

Good place for a quick bathroom break; public restrooms are right downstairs to the right of the checkin counter.

ToryBurch

Taj Boston has a plethora of luxe amenities , like butlers who will draw you a bath or build a wood-burning fire at any hour.

Christine Perkett

This used to be the original Ritz... I used to live one block down the street and we'd go here to the awesome men's-club-like bar for drinks, people watching and snacks . It's awesome - get the experie

Rex

Across the street from Boston Public Gardens/Boston Commons. Best place to go if nature is calling.

Heather Hale

Great people watching from the lovely, old school bar .

Nick Mancusi

The umbrella in your room comes in handy, but the fire place in the bar hits the spot on winter nights!

Rodrigo Davies

Sunday brunch on the rooftop = really incredible. A must do.
