My first time at Hotel Commonwealth. It is a nice facility with VERY FRIENDLY personnel. Room was excellent. Everyone was helpful - with restaurant reservations and anything else we needed. Doormen when out of their way to be helpful, I wanted to use Uber and the doorman gave me some tips to avoid surge pricing.

The only thing that wasn't great was the restaurant connected to the hotel. I don't know if it is part of the hotel or not. But our breakfast was not good and the service was worse. I'll eat somewhere else on my next stay.

So many thanks for your recent review, it's great to hear that your hotel experience was enjoyable and we are so grateful that you selected to stay with us. We are however surprised and sorry to hear that you did not have a good restaurant experience. While we share the same building we do not manage the restaurant operations here however we have always found that a dining experience in either Eastern Standard or Island Creek is typically a flawless one and feel certain that had the restaurant staff known you had not had a good experience they would have done whatever they could to rectify it for you immediately. We feel confident in assuring you that upon future visits to the hotel if you let us know you will be dining in Eastern Standard we will reach out to the management team who ensure you are most well taken care of.

What a wonderful experience to stay in the Commonwealth's Red Sox suite. The entire hotel and staff are outstanding, but the suite was so special with its luxury and wealth of baseball memorobilia.
The living room was classic with leather chairs and oak furniture and they even include selections of nearly every baseball movie and book written or made.

Thank you so much for selecting the stay in the Baseball Suite with us, this particular suite is one of our 5 special and unique "signature suites" all with very different themes and with ties to Boston and Kenmore Square. It's wonderful to hear that accommodations were exactly what you were looking for and you enjoyed the extensive baseball memorabilia and luxurious furnishings that this room offers.

We hope to welcome you back again soon and hope you can experience one of our other very special suites.

We had to stay here because it was the only affordable place next to the Hynes Convention Center. The rooms were huge (suite style) and the staff was exceptional. Valet parking, two restaurants attached to the hotel that were both outstanding. My colleague said he has the best French toast ever at the Eastern Standard Kitchen. Total bargain for Boston. They could charge more.

the junior suite was exquisitely appointed and had many modern amenities from the smart tv to the digital clock/music unit. I particularly enjoyed the toiletries they provided as well, especially the moisturizer. The hotel personnel were all professional, friendly, helpful and accommodating.

We were able to obtain Redsox / Yankees tickets early in the season for my son's 13th birthday on July 10th. I wanted to book a hotel close by so we would not have to drive home late after the game. It was not the first time we have stayed at the hotel as a family so it was an easy choice to make as we have always had a pleasant stay. As usual we were greated warmly at the valet and at the front desk. Our room was large, clean and modern. The view of Fenway always gets the kids excited.
We did not have an opportunity to dine at the commonwealth as both of the dining rooms were full after the game (not unexpected due to the location).
I would highly recommend the Commonwealth to anone visiting Boston.
