Boston: Hotel Choices
I am trying to choose between the following hotels in downtown Boston (Financial District/Faneuil Hall area):
Hyatt
Harborside Inn
Millennium Bostonian
Omni Parker House
Wyndham Boston (on Broad Street)
Any thoughts on which is the best? They are all similarly priced at about $160 per night when I plan to visit.

You might want to check out priceline for some of those, I usually get the Hyatt Financial District for $40.00, and I know the Harborside routinely goes for $50.00 or so. Check out www.biddingfortravel.com

We stayed at the Millenium and loved it. It is more "boutique" and has less of a hotel feel.
We had a lovely corner room with a balcony overlooking Faneuil Hall. When we arrived in our room, the Bose radio had classical music playing and there were chocolate covered strawberries on a silver plate waiting for us!
The room was furnished in French Country antique style, and there was a huge jacuzzi tub in the bathroom.
The staff was very nice and helpful, and greeted us at check-in not at a typical hotel check-in counter, but at a French writing desk, and served us warm chocolate chip cookies while they took our information.
I think it's the small touches like that that make a place special. This is the only place we'd ever stay now in Boston, and we've stayed at most of the "big" hotels.
