Not what we expected. Rooms had a worn dated feel, Staff ranged from very nice to incredibly unprofessional. Over-priced for the quality of the rooms. If you want to stray from the cookie cutter chain hotel experience, my advice is to pay a few bucks extra and stay at one of the more historic hotels in Boston.

Fantastic Service

If your going to the Garden and want to spend the night. STAY AT THE ONYX!!!! Freindly, Comfortable, Willing to Please, and close to everything. Yes, a little pricey, but worth every penny.... Hey, stay at Ho Jo's if you want cheap. If you want style, stay at the Onyx....
(I like that, maybe that should be there new slogan.)
I cannot say enough about the Onyx Hotel in Boston. I booked the hotel a few nights before the Dane Cook show on a whim and they still had rooms available and at a decent rate. I have never felt more taken care of at a hotel ever. Check in was easy, the valet parking is a little steep but worth it. We asked for a cab and we got a house town car ...
I can't even tell you how great this hotel is! When we checked in, the gentleman checking us in (Michael) found out it was our honeymoon and quickly grabbed us a bottle of wine to take up with us to our room. We had booked a penthouse suite ($250 a night!) on the 11th floor. As soon as we got to the room there was a knock at the door. It ...
The Onyx Hotel has EVERYTHING for a couple, kids, and more. This special hotel was designed and inspired from the Britney Spears' Tour "The Onyx Hotel". Ideally located in downtown Boston, the Onyx Hotel, a Kimpton Hotel, adds a touch of modern elegance to its historic neighborhood, an area that is central to both the past, present ...

Staying there again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/22/07
The Onyx has the personality, features, and luxury of its much more expensive sibling the 9Zero Hotel - which I also love. Its all about the BED, and this place has among the best anywhere. Staff are outstanding from the front desk to the valet car parker.
The location is a little off the track for me, but Boston is a small town (sorry, too ...

Trendy and hip.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/13/06
I stayed there for a couple of days while I had meetings in the very nearby Federal Courthouse and Federal Office Building. Location wise, it was convenient for my work, and was also very near the North End and other shopping/dining areas in Boston.
The rooms are very small. The bed in my room was huge, and almost took up too much space in the ...

Would definitely stay again!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/19/06
I stayed at this hotel for an event at the TD Banknorth Garden. The hotel practically right across from the Garden. The bed was AWESOME, like sleeping in clouds! There were some yellow stains on one of our towels and the hotel is not sound proof so you could hear traffic on the street below. The rooms are small but cozy and great if you're only ...

Such nice rooms
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/27/05
We loved the rooms- big soft beds, free internet access, all the amenities. The staff is very friendly.
They offer free car to the financial district in the mornings, otherwise you can walk about 1 block to the North Station on the T. It is pretty quick to spots such as government crossing or Coply, but the hotel is not in a ...

You could do worse...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/26/05
The rooms are small, but nicely furnished. When I say small, I mean small. The photos make the room look bigger than it is. The bed was very comfortable but took up 3 quarters of the room. The bathroom was elegant, but again... small. The water pressure was ok, but certainly not great. Maid service was exceptional.
