Boston
Contemporary luxury with New England residential elegance and subtle Oriental design touches. Dark limestone exterior, cozy lobby that feels more like a living room than a grand atrium. Polished but not stuffy.
Arrive at The Spa at least 45 minutes before your treatment — the Crystal Steam Room and Vitality Pool are only available pre-treatment, not for standalone drop-ins
Why It Matters
Awarded both Forbes Five-Stars and AAA Five-Diamonds. Claims the most spacious standard guestrooms in Back Bay — every room is at least 410 sq ft. The 16,000-sq-ft spa is the largest and most acclaimed in Boston. Gordon Ramsay's first Boston restaurant, Ramsay's Kitchen, is now the hotel's flagship dining outlet.
The Mandarin Oriental Boston sits on Boylston Street in Back Bay, holding down Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond ratings in one of Boston's most competitive luxury hotel markets. It opened in 2008 — a $300 million limestone-and-marble building — and completed a $15 million renovation in 2020 that replaced any lingering corporate stiffness with a residential, almost apartment-like feel. The 148 rooms are the largest standard luxury rooms in Back Bay, the spa is legitimately the best in the city at 16,000 sq ft, and the service detail is obsessive in a good way: staff present room keys with both hands, a butler arrives shortly after check-in.
