The above covers it all. Note that the ratings and comments above reflect the opinions also of my wife and daughter.Thanks for the opportunity to give feedback. We were particularly desirous of opining that its rating should be 2.5 or 3. As a trio we agreed on 3. There's no opinion for the restaurant simply because we did not use the facility.
Well located; room spacious (for old building) and charmingly decorated; staff (maids and front desk) friendly and helpful.
Lobby lame; no fitness room; hallways claustrophobic; not the 4-star level.

4.6

A.
This hotel is great for someone who is used to european hotel standards. i.e. the elevator is tiny and old (not a problem for fit people who can take the stairs, which are quite grande and nice) but it would not be ideal for a young mother with a stroller, etc. I very much enjoyed the location, the old grandeur of the historic hotel, and the lovely bathroom (which was better than a 3 star bathroom). The linens were not great, but for the price, a great deal.
My room was very spacious, a great deal of natural light, and the internet was free (for own laptop).
There is some substantial renovating that needs to take place (peeling wallpaper, cosmetic things, but also structural firming of floors, etc).
Located in the heart of Boston's Back Bay, the Copley Square Hotel provides a European ambiance in a New England location. The hotel is close to some of Boston's best attractions. You can walk to Newbury Street, enjoy a show in the theater district or relax in the park outside of Trinity Church.

Does HotelsByCity recommend this hotel?
If you are looking for a luxury hotel, you will not enjoy the Copley Square.
