Hotel Commonwealth is Anything But Commo

Always a Beatlefan Aug 7, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I booked the Hotel Commonwealth through Orbitz for one night to attend the Paul McCartney concert at Fenway Park, to meet ... with friends, and to shop on Newberry Street. The hotel is quite lovely with the friendliest staff and the most helpful people you can imagine. The room decor is lovely, and the rooms are secure and clean. The location of the hotel is fabulous -- around the corner from Fenway, several blocks from shopping on Newberry Street, and close to restaurants. The valet parking is affordable and professional.

If you are a knitter, be sure to check out Newberry Yarns at 164 Newberry Street which is about a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Both the owner and the yarns are super. Don't miss it!

My husband and I were going to a Red Sox game and Hotel Commonwealth is within walking distance to Fenway park. So we ... decided to stay there. From the minute we walked in the door to the minute we left the service was fantastic. Everyone was friendly, and said hello. They even upgraded us to a junior suite.
