The Envoy Hotel, Autograph Collection

Location was great.

Impromptu stay overnight in the city to attend to a late meeting and early morning session. Hotel is situated at the entrance to the newly developed Seaport area in Boston and is in good proximity to the many offerings in the area. Arrival and check-in was uneventful, efficient and professional. Perhaps because of the late booking and a rather large gathering in the convention conference center nearby, the rates were astronomically high (ridiculous). Assigned room, although nicely furnished with the expected amenities - is not commensurate with the high rates charged. Room is open plan, viz. no cupboards or doors to bathrooms but was largely functional. Assigned room has a view of the gym across the street that had a clear view into the room with the curtains open - not a desirable feature as this required I drew the curtains that made the room dark. I liked the availability of outlets next to the bed and in the working area but climate control was sluggish (did not cool) and the sink did not drain - which is a basic "no" for me. The bed, while comfortable, creaked (irritatingly loudly) with small movements and the room was not as sound-proof as it needs to be - as I could hear street noises. But the walk-in shower was in good working order and provided good service. I would rate this establishment higher if not for the rates levied and the few noted imperfections. Roof top venue is a thing - but over-rated in my opinion. The small lobby was chaotic and noisy with the many guests visiting the roof top restaurant-bar.

Over all an amazing time , celebrated my 5 year anniversary ! My fiance and I are very pleased with way our night ended, I surprised my lady with a fully decorated room over looking the water! We will be back this summer for more envoy💪🏽❤️

Staff was very nice and accommodating, trending decor, nice rooms, awesome water view, great rooftop bar, excellent location. Nice shower!!

The rooftop

There are pros and cons to this hotel.
Pros: excellent location in the Seaport, the restaurant and bar downstairs was great and the rooms are minimalist but cool.
Cons: the Rooftop bar is a great feature of this hotel but it’s over run with 20 somethings and influencers. It’s a total scene! To the point of getting back to your room is difficult. The lobby is filled with people waiting to get to the rooftop bar or waiting for Ubers to leave. The elevator situation needs a better plan for guests since I shouldn’t have to be squished into an overcrowded elevator with a gaggle of 20 year olds to get to my room and or wait several cycles of elevators to get back to my room. Also from a security point of view the number of random non guest in the elevator is concerning. At night you need a key to get to your floor but anyone not staying at hotel could get off the elevator on any floor if they were riding the elevator with a guest who swiped to go to their room. There should be a separate elevator for guest and more security in lobby etc due to mass number of non guests. The warmer weather makes this whole situation worse both during day and at night.
I do not think I’d stay here again based upon the security concerns.

Great hotel! The property is beautiful and centrally located. We were able to walk to many of the attractions and restaurants we wanted to check out. The room was cozy and clean with a great view. Even the bathroom rivaled that of a resort.

The staff was exceptional. RJ and Lonzo were very accommodating and helpful, very genuine when assisting us with whatever we needed. The hotel restaurant Para Maria was delicious! Get the burger, you won’t regret it. The bartender Brittany was so sweet and made the best old fashions.

The rooftop bar is a vibe. If you want to sit in the igloos be sure to make a reservation beforehand, especially on weekends. But the drinks at the downstairs bar were better in my opinion. Also, The Barking Crab is right next door, a must go for lobster rolls!

All in all great experience, We will definitely be back!

Rooftop bar was perfect on first warm day in a long time!

Quiet excellent room. Especially treasure the assistance of a staff member called Marty who extended great kindness in helping me with my Uber car as I was checking out of the hotel. He not only gave me my final receipt at the desk but escorted me to the car and rolled my bags out to it over the wet side walk. Over the top gesture was quickly putting the bags in the trunk of the car. Such courtesy, kindness greatly appreciated by this Envoy patron. Many of my family members stay at this Envoy as a relative lives nearby and all of us have been pleased with the service. Thank you. I have never met Marty before but the Envoy is fortunate to have such a gentleman on its staff. Few companies realize that it is the little gestures that win over customers.

What a great experience. Chris at front desk was very helpful and friendly. Every associate we encountered was super helpful and friendly. What a great staff and place to stay.

Donovan was the person who greeted us at reception and he was so friendly and even helped me with switching my room and made our stay at the envoy so incredible! We will definitely be back!!!

I had a great stay at the Envoy Hotel, and a big reason for that was the front desk staff. Donnovan and Hamza were exceptional—extremely professional, genuinely helpful, and just really nice guys to talk to.

From check-in onward, they went out of their way to make everything smooth and welcoming. Whether it was answering questions, offering recommendations, or just having a friendly conversation, they made the experience feel personal rather than transactional.

It’s rare to find front desk staff who strike the perfect balance between professionalism and approachability, but Donnovan and Hamza absolutely nailed it. They’re a huge asset to the hotel and a big reason I’d happily stay here again.

Highly recommend.

Perfect hotel for a business trip. Everything was spot on, from the spacious room, the heated floors in the bathroom, and the location. I also ate breakfast twice, and both times the food was good and the service was prompt.

I would definitely stay here again when traveling back for work.
