This Boston waterfront hotel will serve as a gateway to Seaport Square, just a block from the site of the Boston Tea Party and Boston Harbor. Located on a constrained site in a developing mixed-use neighborhood, the 136-key hotel features a ground floor restaurant and a rooftop bar with views of the city skyline. Because of its position along the harbor, rising water levels due to storm surge or climate change needed consideration; therefore, critical mechanical equipment was located on the ground floor, which is above the 100-year flood level, rather than the basement. Envoy’s guest rooms and suites are set behind an expansive glass curtainwall façade, which provides sprawling views of the city and harbor. Building components are detailed in shiplap wood in homage to sailing vessels, a gesture that also introduces warmth and texture to the modern volume. LOOKOUT (the rooftop bar), offers guests and visitors a new point of view for socialization and relaxation. At the heart of the hotel are the 136 guest rooms that provide breathtaking floor-to-ceiling windows with unparalleled views of the city. The hotel features a mix of 20 Double Queen rooms, 114 King rooms, and 2 Suites. Modern luxury bathrooms, custom crafted furnishings, and plush textures mix serenity with convenience, providing an escape for guests. Upgraded amenities and spa experiences add the final personal touch.
