Why us?

From our stylish rooms and extraordinary suites to the coveted views of Fenway Park, every corner of our hotel radiates legendary urban charm. We invite you to share your love for Boston—its vibrancy, quirks, and endless energy—with our guests. Our team thrives on details, delights in exceeding expectations, and takes pride in being unmatched hosts to travelers from across the globe.
This is more than just a role—it’s a chance to bring fresh perspective, creative flair, and new ideas to an already celebrated hotel. Together, we create experiences guests will never forget, and moments we’ll be proud of long after they’ve checked out.
