Friendly (on occasion slightly unctuous) service, nicely decorated but very small room. I didn't like the big pump containers of bath gel etc. screwed to the shower wall...that felt cheap and inappropriate given the prices. Pleasant breakfast at Clink; we did not sample the other bars/restaurants in the hotel. Business Center had no chairs at the computers with internet access, which seemed inhospitable.

This is a great hotel to stay in Boston, the whole design, service and athmosphere are very good. The restaurants are top cusinne, and its location is juste perfect.

The common areas are fantastic, and we loved the bar and restaurant. The room, however, while clean and sporting a very comfortable bed, was small and no different from your average mid-level chain hotel room. The bathroom was spacious, though the water pressure in the stand-alone shower was quite weak.

The Liberty Hotel was perfectly located and absolutely delightful to stay in. It is the rennovated "jail" but you are truly captured by the design, furnishings and ambience of the whole experience. It is plush, lush, and fun. The "T" was right across the street and easy to use. We walked the Freedom Trail, shopped on Newbury Street, toured Harvard and enjoyed great food in the evenings. The concierge was extremely helpful in getting us dinner reservations to the popular restaurants. The concierge assisted in renting us a car which was delivered directly to the hotel. Would definately stay at the Liberty our next time in Boston!***Next door at the Massachusetts Ear and Eye Infirmary there is a great cafe that has economical breakfasts and fresh fruit!

From the moment I gave the keys of the car to the hotel staff until I received them back again four days later, this hotel and its staff was the stuff of memories. Everyone was friendly, courteous, professional, and kind. The food at Clinks was excellent, the bar staff personable, the doormen respectful, the concierge knowledgeable. I didn't have to worry about a single thing, which meant that my time could be spent enjoying the people I was with and the activities were came to Boston to do.

We arrived for an early wedding on the afternoon of Oct. 20th. I had asked in advance to have our rooms (2) ready in advance of the usual check-in time, and this courtesy was extended to us without a problem. The rooms were lovely with a beautiful harbor view, which we requested. Our young granddaughters were inpressed with the lovely vew from their room and the well stocked bathroom amenities (hair blower, shampoo, shower cap, etc). It was a most pleasant experience for the five of us, and we would certainly return to the Seaport again if there was occasion to be in that area. We were treated to New England's finest scenery (trees and foliage turning color) so the drive up was wonderful. Traffic on the return trip was horrendous---no fault of the wonderful hotel!!!

We were greeted by [...] at the front desk. He offered us each a welcoming flute of champagne. (It was very nice.) When we got to our room we were blown away with the view, and the room! We had a tray of choclate covered strawberrys waiting on us. out the window we were looking at the skyline of Boston, and large part of the river, which was full of small sail boats at the time. We could see the train which offered transportation to anywhere we would have liked to go, but we chose to walk the city instead. The concierge was very helpfull with maps and suggestions of where to dine and checking prices and packages for the different things to do. We never once entered the front lobby, that we were not greeted by staff. If the had met us before they used our proper name, MR Pritzel, Mrs Pritzel. While I don't consider myself special they certainly made us feel like we were royalty. I would absolutly love to go to the Liberty again.

The Liberty had only been open 5 weeks when my friends and I stayed there....it is FABULOUS!! Very trendy and love that it has a JAIL theme. It use to be an old Jail and if you like a TRENDY place with GREAT service, BIG rooms and even BIGGER bathrooms you will love the LIBERTY!!! Alibi is the bar downstairs and it was the hot spot....if you are a guest you get right in or after a very short wait. The CLINK is the restaurant and it was VERY tasty!! It has a big lounge area to sit and have drinks outside of CLINK and the lobby....just a fun place to stay!! I WILL be staying there again very soon.

This hotel is absolutely wonderful. Every staff member we met was gracious and helpful. The room was comfortable and luxurious. The restaurant was amazing. The hotel was so great, we spent a fair amount of time in the room, just enjoying it!

I stayed here Sept. 27-30th for a buisness meeting on the 17th floor overlooking the Charles River. The hotel was open less than a month. The lobby and rooms are immaculate and beautiful. Comfortable beds and new flat screen tv's. The bathroom was well appointed with a separate shower and soaking tub. My only complaints were the dining options and restaurants. Don't bother eating at the hotel. The food was very expensive and VERY disappointing. Your best bet is to go across the street to Charles street and have breakfast and dinner in one of the small but quaint restaurants. We loved the concierge's recommendation of "Figs" on Charles street and the Paramount for breakfast. The hotel is also a bit of a distance from tourist attractions. A 15 minuete walk to Faniel Hall/Freedom trail or a 15 minuete walk through the Public Gardens to Newburry Street. We felt the need for taxi's at night and those were hard to come by. Parking was also expensive at */night. Overall, a very nice stay but I would consider staying in a more convenient location next time.

Elegant design and has all the extras you love to have at home. huge flat screen TV, comfy bath robes, integrated ip phones, and large take me away bathtubs... wireless Nice job, I'll be back for a longer stay next time.

The SOLE complaint is that the only soap whatsoever is in a wall-mounted dispenser in the shower. So to wash your face using the sink, or to use the bathtub, bring your own! Service was the best I have EVER seen.

This was hands down, the best hotel I've stayed in. The food was ridiculously good. The service 5+stars. The location across the street from metro stop and Beacon Hill. I won't stay anywhere else ever again while in Boston if given the choice. The hotel is the old "city jail". It is way cool. Attention to detail is above and beyond. In room ammenities were modern beyond most places.

Beautiful lobby, well appointed and comfortable rooms. Luxurious robes. Attentive, knowledgable and pleasant staff. My only complaint is the dining and food service. The restaurant's menu was very limited and unimaginative. The following night I chose room service. It took well over an hour for the food to arrive. The hot food was cold and the ice cream was melted. Mycriticism is tempered by knowing that the hotel has been open for less than one month. Presumably these dining disappointments will be quickly corrected. I would stay there again.

The Liberty Hotel is in a great location, walking distance to Boston Commons and other shopping areas. Views of the river are exceptional; staff were professional and friendly.

I spent two nights there right after they opened (1 week is what I found out) and I was very impressed! The rooms are spacious, nicely decorated and high definition flat screen TV's are a very nice touch. The hotel is located in Beacon Hill so very convenient to all of the sites I wanted top see with my wife. We had breakfast in Clink and it was a European style breakfast which we both loved. The lobby bar was the new hot spot in the city. We stopped down for a glass of wine before heading out to dinner and it was a fun atmosphere. We are looking forward to coming back. The service was excellent. The Concierge is very knowledgable and we enjoyed the dinner recommendation.

Very interesting place to stay. The lobby, restaurants and a few of the rooms of this hotel are built into the old Suffolk County jail, an historic stone building. Most of the guest rooms are in a separate tower but it is integrated well with the jail building so you don't feel as though you are leaving the main building. The interior of the lobby is very interesting. It hosts large groups on weekend nights as a local hot spot. The guest rooms are very nice. Many have a view over the Charles River. The hotel is right next to Mass General hospital but noise was minimal. The hotel is in the Beacon Hill neighborhood which has been nicely restored and has many interesting restaurants and shops and is a short walk to the Boston Common. A "T" stop is right in front of the hotel so local transportation is easy.

We found the Liberty Hotel to be a great place to stay for our recent trip to Boston. As the former Charles Street Jail, they kept the history and intrigue associated with the facility but modernized it in a hip and happening way. If you are looking for a quiet place to be, the Liberty Hotel may not be for you as the lobby and downstairs tends to have a nightclub-type atmosphere. We found it to be a lot of fun and a great place to meet locals. The hotel is located in a central part of Boston and it is very close to the Charles/MGH 'T' stop, which makes it very convenient to get around - either by walking or riding. The rooms have beautiful decor and amentities and are comfortable and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Liberty and were very sad to leave.

Gorgeous hotel with wonderful history. Location is excellent. We walked to the Public Gardens, the Boston Common, the Aquarium and the Science Museum. It's on the Red Line metro @ Charles Street / MGH and adjacent to a footbridge that takes you over Storrow Drive to the Charles River Esplanade. We took the metro to Fenway and it was smooth. The hotel itself is very clean, hospitable with a modern decor. The room was clean, quiet and well supplied with lush tolietries. The prison theme is comically carried throughout this most sophisticated hotel. The conceirge and doormen were outstanding as well. Parking was expensive but the going rate for the area. We dined in The Clink for breakfast, it was delicious but expensive. We dined in Scampo for dinner. The ambiance, the food, everything was tops. They also provide pet sitters and playdates for the dog. We were able to leave her in the room unattended for short periods of time as she is well behaved.
