We had a pleasant stay at the Godfrey Hotel this past weekend. We arrived tired and late around 11pm and went right to bed. The next evening, we were back in the hotel by 9 and treated to headache-inducing thumping music that seemed to be coming from within the building. We had been told that the restaurant (coffee shop?) closed at 10:15 so when the music lasted till midnight, we made the best of it. Originally in room 216, I requested a room change for our final night. I requested this through the Airbnb app, and was surprised when a staff member called back to arrange the move. We were moved to the 6th floor. It was much quieter, though there were Halloween celebrations going on outside. We appreciated the hotel’s willingness to accommodate the request.
The hotel is very well located for exploring the Freedom Trail, Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Copley Hill, Long Wharf, And the North End. We did a Food and Freedom Trail walking tour and learned amazing details not previously known. There are a few restaurants located near the hotel, but many more are a short walk from the hotel.
