Overview
Once the storied Charles Street Jail, The Liberty Hotel in Boston welcomes guests to Boston with the spirit of a landmark liberated following an extensive $150 million acquisition, renovation and construction process. Marrying historic architecture with the high standards of refined, modern travel, The Liberty Hotel is New England’s premier luxury hotel in Boston Massachusetts.
Commanding in scale, the original granite edifice was innovative for its day, comprising a beautiful cruciform-shaped structure complete with a 90-foot central rotunda and cupola built in 1851. Today, through meticulous planning reflective of the property’s colorful past, this strong and beautiful building is home to a variety of transcendent public spaces linked by historic catwalks – including lobby and reception areas, restaurant, bar, grand ballroom, and meeting rooms – as well as a limited number of guestrooms. Among the other dramatic features that have been preserved are vestiges of jail cells within the hotel lobby bar and magnificent, oversize windows. A new, adjoining 16-story tower houses the majority of guestrooms with every modern convenience.
The ultimate union of historic influence and contemporary design, The Liberty Hotel is a luxury hotel in Boston, inspired by a sophisticated interior decor that integrates with the architecture’s beautiful simplicity. Echoing the stone facade, reception desks are punctuated with a panel of granite warmed by a surrounding concentric panel of mahogany woods. Throughout the public areas, American colonial prints, enlarged and rendered in historic colors such as maroon, gray and purple, provide a fresh take on a traditional look, while bold geometric carpets in rich hues of purple and yellow are reminiscent of New England window panes and the friezes of traditional doors.
Captivating in every sense of the word, The Liberty Hotel is a Boston luxury hotel that promises an unforgettable guest experience in a unique setting second to none. There are many things to do in Boston. The Liberty Hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood and is just a few steps away from the Charles River and its Esplanade, The Liberty Hotel offers easy access to a wealth of outdoor recreation, unique shopping, entertainment and downtown Boston, MA.

Staff was excellent to work with. On arrival they offered champagne at check-in. It was my husband's birthday, they sent up a personalized card signed by the staff and a "delicious" decadent chocolate cupcake served on a chocolate decorated platter! Nice touch! Concierge set up our dinner reservations ahead of time. Hotel is within walking distance to Faneuil Hall, Government Center with great views of Charles River. Great experience!

Good Service, Beautiful Renovation, Mediocre Food
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Everything was great except food and beverage -- both quality and service. A place like this should be serving cocktails and food that are at a much higher level. Especially given price but really that aside.

The Liberty Hotel was so much fun and the price we got through Perfect Escapes was way less than other sites! Clean rooms, jail theme, great use of a historic space and very nice staff! My only complaint is that guests have to show their room key to the rude bouncer who stands at the door on weekends to determine who's trying to get into the hotel bar vs. the hotel. Otherwise it was all great!

Fabulous Hotel
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
We recently spent a lovely weekend in Boston at The Liberty Hotel. It's very trendy and within walking distance to Beacon Hill, Charles Street shopping as well as the Common and Public Gardens. We needed a taxi one evening and the valet offered us complementary transportation to dinner. We would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

This hotel was spectacular. It was clean, the bathroom was awesome. I am an interior designer and I was impressed - that's pretty hard to manage! The service was great, the staff friendly. I couldn't have asked for anything more! I hope they can keep it up!

Loved Liberty
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
We stayed only overnight as a trial and loved our room, the decor and theme, and the Sunday brunch. Only annoyance as mature adults was the wall-to-wall young people looking to hook up in the lobby on the weekend night we were there.

Wonderful Stay
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
We were supposed to have a room upgrade but to my surprise we were actually upgraded two levels to a Spectacular room. It was a corner room with floor to ceiling windows and a view of the Charles. The staff were extremely friendly and willing to please. We had a wonderful time.
