Located in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood, the XV Beacon is a true taste of luxury in a boutique hotel. The 1903 Beaux Arts exterior is an architectural beauty, while the intimate lobby is all black mahogany with bold splashes of red.
If you're in town over the July 4 holiday, head to the hotel's roof deck (open from April through October) for an incredible view of the fireworks.

LOCATION
Getting Around
XV Beacon is located near several MBTA subway stations, however we guess you'll prefer the hotel's courtesy Lexus service.
Restaurants
Emmet's Irish Pub and Restaurant (1-minute walk) is just across the street, while Italian restaurant Grotto (5-minute walk) is just down the street.
WHY WE LIKE IT
The XV Beacon has amenities galore, ranging from complimentary overnight shoe shines to custom 400 thread count Frette linens. However, prices certainly do reflect the hotel's embrace of all things luxury.
