• Convenience.
• I thought the front desk should have been on the first level, not up an escalator.

“Excellent experience. Hope to stay there again!”

• The location to the waterfront was great.

“Great location. Our room was very comfortable and we could see the Aquarium and Marina right out our window. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet. The hotel is really beautiful and the staff always helpful and friendly.”

• The view, location, decor, and overall ambiance were outstanding.
• Nothing.

“The location is on the water, near the great "T" transportation, Harbor Tours, Trolley Tours, great restaurant all within walking distance. The room was absolutely gorgeous! It was truly one of the nicest hotels I've ever visited, and I have been around the world in all kinds of accommodations.”

• Beautiful water view from the deck, easy walk to everything downtown Boston has to offer.
• Nowhere to park except expensive garages or valet.

“Clean, modern hotel with good amenities. Located right next to the aquarium and several excellent restaurants, like Sel de la Terre. An easy walk to downtown Boston, the Freedom Trail, or delectable North End Italian restaurants.”

• Right next to the T station.
• Lobby architecture was a bit funky.

“Overall, the Marriott Long Wharf is a wonderful place to stay. It is next door to the Aquarium, and a T station is right outside the front door. There is plenty of parking in the public garage one block away, if the valet-only hotel parking is out of your price range.”

• Good location.

“My room had a tiny window that faced an interior atrium to the hotel, not an exterior wall. That was ridiculous!”

• Very nice, recenlty remodeled and ideal location to Quincy Market.
• The T stop in front of the hotel is Blue Line requiring transfers to most anywhere other than the airport.

“The Marriott Long Wharf is a wonderful upscale Boston hotel, directly across the street from Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall. It is also a short 2-3 blocks from Boston's Italian North End neighborhood. Almost all of the major Boston attractions are located within walking distance. If you purchase a 1-day T pass for $9 or a 7-day pass for $15 per person, you can go everywhere in Boston and Cambridge. The hotel itself has a nautical theme and is configured on the outside and inside like a luxury cruise liner. The view from the restaurant looking out on Boston Harbor is like the view off the stern of the ship. It's a perfect hotel for tourists as well as business visitors.”

• Great atmosphere and location on the Boston waterfront. Close to Fanueil Hall, Goverment Center and the North End.
• The high price of parking your car at the hotel or surrounding areas.

“We arrived early, check in is not until 4PM but they were able to accommodate us for a 2:30 check-in. We were given a nice room on the 5th floor overlooking the Boston Harbor, beautiful view! The room was clean and had many amenities. The staff was very efficient. The Marriott Long Wharf is very close to Faneuil Hall, the North End and Government Center, which made walking around easy. The only negative was the $42.00 to park overnight at the hotel and the prices at other garages were about the same.”

• Great location and view from hotel room.
• Hotel room was a little far away from elevator.

“This hotel is just steps from Quincy Market and the North End. Rooms are very nice with a great view of the harbor. Stay at this hotel if you want to be close to all the activities that Boston has to offer.”

• Beautiful water view.
• Very noisy outside and inside room. Something in the room kept bumping every 10 min at night. Maid vacuumed at 9 am outside my room.

“It is oddly set up. On the view side, you get the view and the street noise as well.”

• Awesome location, nice view, well appointed room and friendly staff.
• Room was extremely noisy as it had thin pass-through doors to neighboring rooms.

“The hotel was excellent in all respects except for one, noise levels. As each room has very thin pass-through doors between them, every conversation, laugh, etc., can be heard through them. As such, someone returning to their room at 3:00 am can easily wake up their neighbors. It's actually a shame as, besides that, we were very impressed by the hotel. It was in a great location, has nice views, and has nicely appointed rooms. If they can solve the noise issues, it would be perfect.”

• Excellent quality of linens, furniture, bathroom, TV, the room was amazing and perfectly comfortable- didn't want to leave.
• I was only there 1 night. I have nothing negative to share.

“Quality hotel- clean, views of harbor and walking distance to the Italian district- amazing resaturants. Good location to a lot of sights, but I was there on business. I'd definitely like to stay there for a leisure trip.”

• Convenience was a big plus.
• Food is pricy.

“Cannot beat the convenience of this hotel in Boston. Directly across the street from Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market and next door to the Aquarium. The T (subway) is literally at the front of the hotel. It is very convenient. On top of this, it is up to typical Marriott standards. Clean rooms, common areas and nice staff. As you can expect, food is expensive. This is not a problem, however. Due to the proximity of local restaurants, there are numerous less expensive options.”

• Comfortable bed.
• Too many tourists.

“Very nice hotel in convenient location. Rooms are state of the art-large, comfortable bed, LCD TV, lots of outlets for electronic devices. Good hotel for both vacation and business travelers (provided that you don't mind all the clueless tourists).

• Good views, convenient place, charming.
• Parking!

“This hotel overall is pretty nice. The parking cost, however, was a huge turnoff. There are plenty of other places in Boston to park for less overnight and they charged a lot considering that I was staying as a guest. I would recommend staying in the area to a friend. Shame on them for making someone like my family feel ridiculous after parking our car and not explaining the fees.”

• Location and comfort.
• Rack rates are too high.

“Everything you would expect in a major upscale hotel is available and whether traveling by foot, boat, public transport or taxi it is all nearby (instant access to attractions like: aquarium, harbor, freedom trail and north end). As a bene, it looks like views from most rooms provide active street or harbor life.”

• Parking fee of 42 dollars per night.

“You cannot get any closer to the water at Long Wharf in Boston. My room had a view of the harbor and the aquarium. Beautifully decorated rooms, the interior gives the appearance of a cruise ship. We did not eat here, but the hotel locale is steps away from the North End, known for its fine Italian flavor and food. I would stay here again in a minute. I did not like the $42.00 parking fee. Next time, I would park in the suburbs at a train station and take the T in. There is an Aquarium stop on the corner.”

• The location was perfect for sightseeing for my wife and daughter as well as convenient for my business meetings in Boston.
• The down escalator was out of service for 2 days.

“The Marriot Long Wharf is in a perfect location for those looking to take in the sights of Boston. It is in walking distance to some of Boston's top seafood and Italian restaurants as well as being across from the famous Quincy Market. Also, it is in the Financial District for those traveling on business. I would recommend this hotel for vacationing families as well as business travelers.”

“While staying at this hotel a very important bag I had was lost or stolen. When I checked out of the hotel I was told not to worry my items would be brought down and stored for the morning. I had a few things to take care of in the city and returned later for my bags at which time I noticed something missing. I spoke with several employees of the hotel and they promised to locate my bag and return it to me. Long story short, I never got my bag back or even a phone call from the hotel. I called the hotel several times and in the end they blamed it on another customer. I will never stay here again!”
