"Amazing Time"
The staff was very informative of the area and super nice! I loved that we were right on Charles St. which took you to Beacon Hill and to the Freedom trail! I love how much history the hotel has! There are 3 bars and 2 restaurants that are awesome! The locals actually come to the hotel to hang out!! I would recommend anyone who comes to Boston to stay […] at the Liberty Hotel!!

"Great for drinks and bar scene"
I was thrilled with the hotel.....from the champagne at check in to the friendly staff, the great lobby and atrium for drinks. Not to mention it has so much history. On top of that the location is perfect to do a little shopping in the many quaint shops along Charles Street and grab a bite at any number of great restaurants. We chose Figs a Todd English […] restaurant which I would totally reccomend! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Our stay started out wonderful. Brent the day manager checked us in and was helpful and efficient. Our evening ended on a very bad note, however. At 11:30 at night after being in our room for just an half an hour, there was a very loud knock at our door. We asked who it was but they did not identify themselves but instead began opening the door with […] a key. My friends and I immediately used the dead bolt to stop them from entering and called the front desk and we were told to open the door because it was security. We did so only to have two very big men begin yelling at us for not opening the door for them when they were security (even though they did not identify themselves). They said we were being too loud and that next time we should open the door immediately. He was rude and scary. We closed the door and called the front desk and talked to Paul the night manager and he was also very rude and disrespectful. We had only been in the room for half an hour and were in bed watching a movie when all this nonsense started. As three 44 year old women visiting for a friends' get away we were very disappointed with the night time employees. We also found the hotel lobby lovely during the day but at night it turned into some crazy kind of disco with people every where and very loud music. I sure hope they fix things at the Liberty!

"I would stay again"
Easy to get to, friendly staff, parking included - what more do you need? Price was good, close to T, great bar and restaurant in house. The only downside was a false alarm emergency evacuation in the middle of the night. Quite loud, and fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how one looks at it) unnecessary. Because I assume this does not happen […] all the time, I give this hotel 4 1/2 STARS Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Get out of jail free, well not so free"
Really interesting place to stay. Well located for Cambridge, Harvard, MIT and BostonGenuine Hotels.com guest review
A very nice stay, but not perfect. Beautifully designed property (boutique hotel feel with great use of the original jailhouse building's architecture), polite staff, and lovely rooms with nice amenities (complimentary bottled water, lush bed linens, gorgeous bathroom) were the highlight. The tv wasn't working at night - was told by reception it was […] a hotel-wide issue. View of the hospital offices forced us to keep drapes closed the entire time. Bar menu and room service menus are unique but limited. Would stay again for sure! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"great for Charles Street shopping and dining"
Loved the location of hotel - convenient to the quaint section of Beacon Hill, Charles Street shops and dining and the Science Museum. Hotel was very interesting, both architecturally and historically - quite a happening place for young professionals to gather after work! We enjoyed the choices of restaurants and lounges, especially being outdoors in […] The Yard. Staff was very amiable and helpful and our room was very clean and comfortable! Will definitely return!

"Just wanted a beautiful place to stay!"
The entry way was stunning. From the moment we entered you wanted to take it all in because it was so unique. The lobby was fantastic with all the different levels. We were impressed by the friendliness of the staff and the champagne offered at check-in was a great touch. Every place you looked there were touches of historical significance - an ideal […] place for a history buff! The Clink, Alibi and the bar in the lobby were wonderful. Definitely not boring!!! It was overall a great exerience and we would not hesitate to stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Nice hotel but loud"
Because the hotel is also one of Boston's most popular bars, when the bar closes the hotel corridors tend to get very loud with drunks. Not what you want to be woken up by at 2AM.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is fabulous - very nicely renovated historic boston landmark - the Charles St Jail! The lobby is quite impressive and always has something going on - very fun for a special occasion. The guest services team was wonderful and the hotel staff was extremely friendly & accomodating to any request(s) we made. I will stay again without question...

"Plead Guilty"
Totally cool hotel. If you drive beware it's tricky with all the one ways around Beacon Hill. The lobby bar is fabulous and great for people watching, the rooms are modern and clean, one complaint we had no closet and no where to actually hang clothes. Location is great and the end of Charles Street, lots of great shops and little cafe style places […] ! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Perfect Birthday Mini-Vaca"
I stayed at the Liberty Hotel on my birthday with two close friends. From the moment we walked in, we were wow-ed. The interior is so different than any other hotel I've stayed in, as you can see aspects of the former jail. Since it was around 6pm on a Thursday when we checked in, the hotel restaurants/bars were lively with well-dressed people of all […] ages. The girl checking us in chatted with us about fun clubs to go to that night and gave us glasses of champagne. Nice! Our room was immaculate, our beds comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious - with a separate shower and tub. I only wish we had a view of the Charles River rather than into the offices of the hospital next door - but I reserved a basic room, so that was no fault of theirs. We ended up having dinner at one of the many restaurants along Charles St. and then going to a club called Down. The club was fine, but as it was tiny with no place to sit, we wanted to go elsewhere around midnight. A girl we met at the club suggested we go to Alibi...at The Liberty! Back to The Liberty we went. It was a gorgeous summer night out, and the patio was bustling with people mingling and relaxing around the couches and fire pits. We ended up having a fantastic night and wishing we had stayed at The Liberty the entire time! I will definitely return! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"very cool"

"Best Hotel in Boston"
Pretty simply the best hotel in Boston. Granted, I haven't stayed at the new-ish Manderin-O yet, nor have I stayed at XIV Beacon, but I've stayed in most every other place and I can assure you this hotel is fabulous. Though it's not the most convenient, it is gorgeous, the staff is spectacular, the rooms are amazing and the amentities are top notch. […] Enjoy! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Liberty Hotel in Boston--Great July 4th Weekend"
My husband and I booked this hotel in December of last year for this year's 4th of July. As infrequent visitors to Boston, we were unfamiliar with the Beacon Hill area. The Liberty gave us perfect access to the area, the T, and the Community Boathouse Party. We were impressed with the unique building, comfortable rooms and attentive staff. We arrived […] late with rain-soaked luggage, and housekeeping brought extra hangers right away. We needed to fly down to Washington DC for a day at the end of our stay, and they cheerfully stored our luggage and then the concierge suggested that they arrange our rental car for our drive through New England so that we could pick up both our luggage and the car at the hotel on our return from Washington. Wish we could have come a day earlier for the chef's Saturday culinary tour of Beacon Hill. We won't miss that one again! We're seriously considering returning for the next 4th of July.

"Very cool hotel!"
This is an awesome hotel!! The service I experienced was excellent! The atmosphere is very hip and cool in the bar areas. The lobby turns into a cool night spot and although I had read of others having noise issues in their room because of this, I did not experience any problem with noise at night. The only slight negative was that I had hoped for a […] room with a view and asked them at the front desk when I checked in, I was told I was being upgraded to a courtyard view but it was only on the 2nd floor. I got to my room and my 'courtyard view' was basically just a big tree view, so not a great view but the room was nice. It didn't matter, I wasn't in my room too much, but it would have been nice to get one of the great views! The one other thing is the hotel gym was actually pretty weak for a hotel of this caliber, I definitely would have expected a better gym and I also would have thought there would have been a pool. The hotel is right across the street to the subway, so it made it easy to get around, it's a short walk to the Beacon Hill area and then the Boston Common. It's also right across from The Charles River Esplanade, great running location! I had lunch in Clink and found it to be very good, wanted to try Scampo but never made it. Overall, I thought this was a great hotel, I got a great price on a last minute deal and will definitely stay here again on any trips back to Boston! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Liberty Hotel- what a scene"
We spent my husbands 40th birthday here, we had a room with a majestic view of the city and the river. We really wanted a night on the town away from the daily grind and we got it all in one place. Dinner at the CLINK was high end, delish and fun. Cocktails at the Alibi, a bar with a club atmosphere which was something we had not done in a very ling […] time... and we were out of there by 11pm which is when we were too old to be there anyway. The lobby was always full of people and fun, especially the Sunday morning bloody Mary bar. A great place to get away and have some fun... and the hotel and the rooms are beautiful.
