I will never stay here again. The hotel was already overpriced, and on top of that, I was charged an additional $209 in “incidentals,” including parking and a $30-per-day fee that was never disclosed upfront. When I booked, it clearly stated that parking was included. We also had to carry all our luggage down from the 9th floor because luggage carts aren’t allowed to be used before 9 a.m. The “breakfast” was nothing more than a few snacks with water and coffee, and only one elevator was working during our stay. This was a terrible experience, especially for our first trip to Boston. We will not be returning and definitely won’t be recommending this hotel to anyone.

Our room was quiet, clean, and comfortable. Staff were friendly and enjoyed the service at the bar. The gym was good—had all the equipment we needed and was very clean. The only problem was the elevators were out of service our last evening and morning.

Would be full 5 stars but for attempt to extract more feed upon check in after paying in advance in Expedia. While they ultimately waived the added fees, it was a less than pleasant exchange when I checked in and they wanted to charge me a three night facility fee. When I explained that my reservation through Expedia was already paid for, they said it didn’t include the facility fees. I explained that my prepaid agreement with Expedia included all taxes AND fees but they disagreed. Either way, Expedia and Collonade need to get on the same page with the fees. Overall, Aidan, Juan, and Alexander took care of this issue. The room was nice, clean, and the gym was excellent.

Lobby and outside is tired. The room I had was updated but the fixtures in the bathroom were loose. Overall, the experience was better than I expected. I've stayed in the Sheraton and while a new property the staff doesn't compare to those at The Colonnade. Great location in the Back Bay.

Staff was great! Room was ok. Towels are scratchy. Bed is super uncomfortable. TV was awful....glitchy, no guide. Something in the hotel set off allergies. Heard other guests complaining of the same thing.
