The Lenox Hotel is a family owned hotel in an older building located in the Back Bay. I loved the location and loved the hotel. I enjoyed this hotel so much that when I come back to Boston I will only stay at the Lenox.
Unique Qualities: The rooms were extremely spacious. This photo shows the interior of the room we booked for our children. We booked it through the hotel's website and got it for an amazingly low price. The absolutely best feature of the hotel is the wonderful bellhop, Jimmy Fisher. He's the archetypal Irish-Bostonion. He is an icon at the hotel and has worked there for something like 50 years! As he helped us with our bags, he told us of the advice he gave to the hotel regarding design of the rooms when the hotel was last refurbished. A bellhop who helps design the rooms! That is a very unique bellhop indeed. He now works only on Fridays and Saturdays. If you are there on one of those days, you should meet him. We had such an amusing experience with our laundry. Jimmy Fisher, who delivered each installment was so entertaining! Jimmy, we loved you! You made staying in the Lenox so worth it!

Mikebb Sat Aug 4, 2007 09:22 UTC Hi Karen, Enjoyed your Boston page, we had 2 nights recently and I think it is my favourite USA city, not that I have seen many. | Nemorino Mon Jul 23, 2007 16:27 UTC Hi Karen, glad you enjoyed your visit to Boston and even found a good running route right away. I have relatives nearby, so I hope to visit Boston again sometime. | deecat Mon Dec 11, 2006 12:00 UTC Excellent, Karen. Ah, traveling with teens! Hey, Chicago did the cows years ago! What a hotel, what a staff! Love your easy-going, humorous style. | Bwana_Brown Tue Oct 31, 2006 00:14 UTC I've had a lot of meetings in Boston and I love this city! It so happens I am also a Red Sox fan, since it is still the closest pro ball team to my home. Great tip on the Lenox, my wife & I had a fantastic stay there a few years ago! |
