"Shabby rooms, nice location"
My girlfriend and I stayed here for 4 nights, and had no major problems with this hotel. Pros: It's in the "shopping district" near Copley Square The hotel has the potential to be "classically classy" Affordable compared to other area hotels Friendly front desk Decent continental breakfast Free computer use Cons: Our room had scuffs on the walls, […] the headboard was separating from the wall, and the bathroom was pretty unexciting. In other words, the hotel rooms need a refresh. Weak wifi on our floor Poor signage on hotel makes it hard to tell it's a hotel Stairs-only entrance to the hotel, making it tricky to bring in large luggage Overall we enjoyed our stay, but yeah, you're a Boston Hotel in a prominent area- clean up and update the roms a bit!

"Great Price for a Great Location"
The hotel is perfectly located if you want to see Boston and catch a game at Fenway. You can walk to many great locations, no taxis needed. The rooms were on the smaller side, but typical for older hotels. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We rented a car for a few days to see sights outside of the city and were able to find street parking overnight […] to avoid the high priced garage across the street. Meters are free from 8pm until 8am. Overall a great place to stay! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"John Hancock Hotel in Back Bay, Boston"
This hotel had the best rate and location for this area of Boston! The T (subway) was a block away from the front door, plenty of restaurants were walking distance away, Newbury Street, a shopping and eating hot spot in Boston, was three blocks away, the Boston Public Library, which contains many art masterpieces, is two blocks away...I could go on […] and on. This was hands down the best visit to Boston I've experienced thanks to the convenience of this hotel! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Old Hotel, Small Rooms, Good location"
The hotel was just a couple of blocks from the Copley T station. It is also within short walking distance to Newbury St or the start of the Freedom Trail. There are lots of shops nearby. The hotel itself is really old and the inside looks like it was last updated in 1982. The room we had (booked through hotels.com) was small and had one double bed and […] a loveseat. We tried to request a room with two beds or a larger bed but were not able to switch. There is a continental breakfast but it was really only some bagels, a few muffins, bananas, and cereal. The coffee was decent and enough to get me going until we were able to stop and get some real breakfast. We chose this hotel for our quick Boston weekend trip for the price and location and didn't expect much else. So if you do the same you won't be dispointed. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

I guess you're paying for location not luxury. It's an old place but convenient for the Back Bay area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Travel with convenience"
The location is ideal. It is walking distance to the T. On the way back to the hotel, there is a CVS store for groceries and for cashback. The hotel may not be luxurious, but it is clean and quiet.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Bra läge"
Hotellet låg mycket bra placerat i Back Bay med många sköna restauranger och barer i närheten. Det låg också väldigt bra placerat för de olika tunnebanelinjerna. Hotellet var ganska så slitet och inte så välstädat, det var smutsigt på toagolvet i vårt rum, men trots detta så vill man ha billigt boende centralt så är detta ett bra alternativ.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Rigtig god beliggenhed !!"
Beliggenheden var rigtig fin. Gåafstand til centrum, og stadig til at komme til i bil. Morgenmaden var ganske ok. Ikke pralende, men helt fin for dem der lige skal ha fyldt maven, inden der tages hul på byens oplevelser :-) Værelserne var fine og rengøringen kan der ikke sættes en finger på. Kan helt klart anbefales!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Nur wenige Meter von 2 U-Bahn Stationen entfernt."
Das Hotel ist zwar nicht mehr das neuste (älterer Bau mit älteren Zimmern), jedoch hat es grosse Zimmer, freundliches Personal und sowohl Bad wie auch Zimmer sind sauber. Die Lage ist perfekt, nur 100m bis zur nächsten U-Bahn Station welche direkt ins Zentrum führt.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hotel John Hancock à Boston, USA"
Avis très favorable ,seul point négatif: la salle de bain très usagée, bouchon de baignoire ne fonctionnant pas, pas de possibilité de prendre un bain, déco ancienne; mais à part cela, le personnel est acceuillant et l'hôtel est très bien situé. Petit dej spartiate mais compris dans le prix de la chambre ,ce qui est rare aux USA.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
