We are frequent travelers and use this site to do our research before we book our hotels. We stayed at XV Beacon over parent's weekend and were extremely disappointed in the rooms and the service. Our standard room was literally the smallest hotel room I have ever stayed in. At $575 a night, there was no dresser or even a... more

Just finished a two night stay with two rooms. Faciities are very nice, but the service was downright incompetent. Incoming calls to my son's room didn't work, despite pointing out the problem the first night. Never fixed. When checking out at 5am, requested a bellman who didn't show until we were carrying out bags out after waiting 10 minutes. Asked... more

We had a great "Girls Weekend" at XV Beacon. The service is wonderful, especially Mark who was our driver for the weekend. Our breakfast was delivered at the exact time we requested and was very good. My only complaint was with some of the room features. We loved the TV, fireplace and stereo system but the lighting was horrible, the... more

We chose this hotel to treat ourselves for our wedding anniversary after reading a Conde Nast review. The first thing that struck us was the smell of the grilled steaks from the restaurant which is in the same building. I really enjoy the smell of steaks but there was a serious ventilation problem going on and all the fumes were... more

We stayed at the XV Beacon in July. We were in a suit that cost over $500. The room upon first glance was really nice. Big windows, cool design, nice bathroom etc. However when we looked a littler closer there we things that were not so nice. The cover on the bed had a big stain on it, the light... more

We were a bit nervous after reading reviews on TA. We booked a basic room and were upgraded on arrival to a room with a fireplace. It was spacious, cosy, clean, well equipped and had an excellent bathroom (if anything the websites pictures dont do it justice). We also had an excellent dinner at the restaurant downstairs - (slightly against... more

My wife took me for a surprise night at the Beacon XV enroute to her college reunion (where we stayed at a chain hotel). From the moment we got there it was very clear that this was a different kind of hotel. From the valet at the front, to the woman who checked us in to Frank who brought up... more

This small boutique hotel is located next to the Mass. State House in a very good location to the Freedom Trail, etc. It is also part of the AmEx preferred hotel program, however, we were unable to recevive many of the benefits of this program during our stay. Part of the program is to receive an automatic room upgrade, if... more

I was excited to stay at XV Beacon, but that quickly dwindled once I settled in. Yes, the staff, except for one incident, was very pleasant and attentive, but my expectations were not met. The hotel is beautiful and in a great neighborhood, but here are my issues: I was told that, with the exception of two rooms, there are... more

Stayed at XV Beacon recently. Loved the style, location, service and amenities. Was upgraded to a Studio room which was a nice size although a bit odd that it has only a Queen bed. While we only ate breakfast and some appetizers in the hotel, it was a great looking room and the service and food was amazing. Went to... more
