XV Beacon

A lovely modern hotel, centrally located in the historic Beacon Hill neighborhood, XV Beacon is a perfect place to stay while visiting Boston. The birthplace of the American Revolution, Boston is brimming with history—and the cobble-stone streets of the Beacon Hill neighborhood. Walking distance to numerous historical landmarks and museums, XV Beacon is right next to the Boston Commons and the Massachusetts statehouse and across the street from the Boston Atheneum. It’s also just down the street from the favorite as-seen-on-TV bar—Cheers! The rooms at XV Boston include elegant furnishings with dark wood accents that give the accommodations the stately feel of a guest room at an old Beacon Hill mansion. Each room includes a fireplace that adds to the ambience and warmth. One amenity that we particularly enjoyed was the selection of bath salts offered for a relaxing bathtub soak. The XV Beacon is distinguished by its exceptionally polite and helpful staff. We were greeted by friendly doormen and bellmen and assisted by the efficient front desk staff. The superstar concierge team led by David introduced us to the best nightlife spots in the South End, helped us find stores in the Back Bay for our shopping needs, and guided us to secret underground speakeasies. A standout for the hotel is the private driver service—Mark quickly and safely navigated the streets of Boston through rain and traffic to get us to everywhere we needed to go. The hotel is above a popular steakhouse Mooo…. where you can enjoy a wonderful dinner or a drink at the bar. There are plenty of restaurants and small shops within walking distance from XV Beacon that you can also enjoy. We highly recommend a stay at this gorgeous hotel and a visit to lovely Boston!

This is among the nicest hotels I've stayed in in the United States. Everything worked: the location is ideal and an easy walk to downtown and the public gardens; it is right in lovely Beacon Hill with its various shops and restaurants; it has a fine restaurant on site; and, most important, a friendly, professional, and courteous staff. I was upgraded to a studio, which was an unexpected surprise. Lovely, large space with a fireplace, comfortable king bed, and warm colors of brown and beige that I found soothing. Evening turn down service. Everything was tastefully decorated and spotless. Room service breakfast arrived on schedule. One of the nicest surprises was the complimentary car service that took me to South Station on the morning of my departure. Very friendly driver. XV Beacon Hotel is definitely a keeper.

It’s more than two weeks since we checked out of the hotel and we’re still waiting for the ‘extras’ deposit which was charged to our credit card to be refunded by the hotel. We have emailed. No response to the emails though . Poor customer service.

What a fabulous hotel. The staff could not have been more helpful. The house car was a gem. The staff really were fantastic and allowed us to keep our room till 4pm, no extra charge. Moo was delicious for breakfast and dinner. Highly recommend

Lovely hotel with lots of character. Hotel staff are very helpful and friendly. The room is spacious although a walk in shower would be preferred. The back of the hotel is noisy, there is some sort of machinery which drones on all night, with jet lag this is not great.
