The Intercontinental has all of the amenities of an upscale business hotel right on the waterfront, yet my family did not feel out of place. The hotel has an international flare and it felt like we were visiting a European city.
Positives: The rooms were phenomenal and room service was like eating a 5 star dinner in the comfort of your room.
Negatives: Nothing.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 01 Mar 2011 rated 10 out of 10.
We had an excellent experience. The room was very neat and had a great view of the city. It was located in a great area, close to all the attractions. The staff was very friendly and professional.
Positives: The atmosphere was glamorous.
Negatives: Parking was too expensive.

If you are looking for luxury and accessibility in Boston then we would recommend the Intercontinental Boston Hotel. We found the accommodations clean and the bathroom had all the amenities one could ask for. It was an easy walk to Fanueil Hall, Long Wharf and the North end and we couldn't have asked for more than that. Priceline allowed us to experience this 4+ star hotel at a very reasonable rate. We would definitely patronize this hotel again.
Positives: The decor and the accessibility to major attractions in Boston.
Negatives: I have nothing negative to say other than prices of mini bar, but that goes with the territory.
Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 28 Oct 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 03 Oct 2009 rated 5 out of 10.
first, I would like to say wow what a bathroom! we were given a city view as all the harbor view rooms were sold out due to convention so the view was not much to talk about. the bed was too hard for our taste and the pillows need replacing as they are like not even having one.
Positives: The front staff were very helpful as well as the valet.
Negatives: Some of the staff in the bar need more training related to customer service.
