Harborside Inn Review
Whereas its sister property the Charlesmark is hip, the Harborside has an understated charm that is anchored throughout by a modern maritime theme that includes a generous use of teak and classic maps of the Boston waterfront. Rates are considerably lower than most Waterfront hotels—as low as $119 in the off season— making this an exceptional value. Many of the snug rooms have windows overlooking an interior atrium, which extends eight stories up to the roof. Some rooms and common spaces have exposed brick. Amenities include flat-screen TVs, surround-sound stereo, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Faneuil Hall, Quincy Market, and the North End are all short walks away. Existing rooms were renovated in January 2011; when the noisy downstairs nightclub closed that year, the hotel took over the space and planned to add 16 rooms, a bar, lounge and café as well as double the size of the lobby—in just a little over a year's time. For a great view, request a room overlooking the city; for a quieter stay, book a room that faces the interior atrium.
