Great if you're going to an event at Boston Garden

Great hotel for events at Boston Garden. Very small eating area. Food OK but not great.

Great Staff

The hotel is funky and cool. I loved the contemporary decor. The bed was amazing. I got a great night's sleep. BUT the staff was terrific. Very helpful and courteous. They recommended a great restaurant for dinner and the wine reception is such a nice idea. Great opportunity for them to get to know their guests better.

Great Location, fine room

I have stayed here several times over the last 4 years. Generally, I like it. However the bedding leaves much to be desired. The mattresses are hard and the sheets are flimsy and appear worn out.

A Good Choice

Very contemporary lobby and rooms. No shuttle service, but only about $15 taxi ride to the airport. The location was great for me. A short walk to Quincy Hall, train station, TD Garden, Science Museum... Walked around North End from hotel...Good Italian dining. I would definitely stay at Onyx again!

Excellent Location Near Transit and the North End

We were very pleased with the service and location of this hotel. We easily located the hotel from the airport using the "T." We enjoyed the complimentary wine bar soon after our arrival. The hotel's neighborhood, although a little run down, had many interesting establishments. We most loved the 1/2 mile walk to Hanover Street with its fabulous Italian food. Overall, we found this hotel a good value.
