A great place to stay, feels easier than walking into a huge hotel. Staff was great. Love the albums and turntables in the rooms.
Heated pool was wonderful, can swim outside even in the winter.

One of the best stays I’ve had yet. Love the location, the staff are amazing and the heated pool is immaculate. I’ve never swam in a heated pool outside and 30° weather before needless to say it was life-changing.

Fun hotel. Brings a Nashville vibe to Boston. On-site parking (xtra). Staff is super friendly & the restaurant is great…giving a quick alternative to searching for a place if you have an event planned & are low on time. Highly recommend The Verb & hope to stay there again.
