Best thing about the hotel was that even though I checked in at 10.30 am, they had a room available for me. Clean room (though a bit small), excellent location and helpful stuff.

Beautiful Hotel in a perfect location
The location of the hotel is perfect. It is right on the freedom trail, within a few blocks from many of the major attractions including Boston Commons, Gardens, Old Town House, Church, marketplace. I would recommend this hotel to others and stay there again.

Wonderful Location
I read many of the other reviews, before deciding on this hotel. The Omni Parker was a great location. We were able to walk anywhere we wanted to go. The room was small but cozy. The room service was excellent also. The only problem was there was only a shower in the bathroom. This is well worth the price.

My stay here came at the end of a extensive traveling (November 2011 through July 2012). Needless to say, I spent three worry free days in Boston in the lap of luxury.

Perfect Location
My stay at the Omni Parker House could not have been any better. The location of the hotel makes it the perfect stay for anyone. Everything was in walking distance. The bed was very comfortable and the room was good size. The bathroom was a little tight but how much time do you really spend in there. Overall it was an excellent place to stay.

Location, Location, Location!!!
This hotel is perfectly located for those who enjoy walking! The Last Hurrah Bar has great bartenders to chat with to find out where the locals go to eat and drink, as well as advice on places to visit while you are there! Our room was always very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the free Boston Cream Pie push-pops throughout the month of July was a bonus! If you enjoy running, we recommend doing the Freedom Trail 5K. It takes place every Saturday and Sunday mornings. you can sign up online. The run gets you 16 stops full of historical information as well as a drink, ferry ride, and shirt to commemorate your run. It's not for time, it's for fun! We will definitely stay at this hotel again!

4th of July Week
Spending 4th of July week in Boston was perfect while staying at the Omni Parker House. The location was perfect and the staff was super nice (and this is coming from a Southerner who has high expectations of people). The hotel is grand and historical thus the rooms are smallish in size with high ceilings. I loved it but it may bother someone else. The Parker House is located on the Freedom Trail (a walking history lesson) and is surrounded by major historical buildings, sites, etc. And it's a quick and easy walk to other major sites. Restaurants - The Last Hurrah - Clam Chowder is the BEST. We thoroughly enjoyed everything there.
