This property blew us away! We a king suite with a pull out sofa for our 16 YO. We were there leading up to a conference my daughter was attending to shop and sightsee. This property sits at the end of a pier and we had amazing views from our 2nd floor corner suite. They leave a card each day for you to select your breakfast options and then they deliver it to your room each morning! The rooms had been remodeled and I LOVED the heated tiles in the bathroom areas! I let them know on our breakfast card that it was our daughter’s 16th birthday one morning and they went out of their way to bring a huge slice of strawberry cheesecake with a burning candle and our breakfast, which was really special. This hotel was totally walkable to shopping, dining, the aquarium and all the historic sights, but it’s a LOT of walking! Driving is really confusing in Boston and I do not recommend it! The lounge is nice and we enjoyed some games of pool. Each day and night they leave little snacks in the hallway for guests, and the chocolate chip cookies each night were delicious! Bed was comfy, the room was amazing and service was excellent. I would definitely stay here again and HIGHLY recommend this property, a nice mix of historic character and new renovation.

This small hotel set on the water is the hidden gem of Boston. Set on the water just a stones throw the the north end and the TD Garden. Whether you are going out to a nice dinner or to the game, if you are on this side of town it’s the place to stay. The staff is amazing, captains longe is relaxing, rooms are spacious and clean. We will definitely be back!!

It was a nice small hotel. Staff were nice too but car entrance and parking is inconvenient. Our Uber couldn't get in, so we had to walk to parking entrance to the hotel entrance during raining. Also I've heard their elevator broke forever... It's ok only second floor is hotel rooms.

We loved everything about our stay at the Boston Yacht Haven Inn. The moment we walked through the front door, we received a kind, hearty greeting from Maureen, and she proceeded to make the check-in process smooth, easy and quick. We found our guest room to be beautiful and spotlessly clean -- kudos to the housekeeping staff! The common areas downstairs were spacious, airy and comfortable. The inn is located very near the wonderful Italian restaurants in Boston's North End, yet isolated at the tranquil end of a wharf which allowed us to feel removed from the urban hustle and bustle. If it had been a bit warmer, we surely would have walked to dinner, which is a huge advantage when you have been in a car for a good part of the day. Most importantly, the staff at the inn were friendly, solicitous and helpful -- everything you could ask for as a traveler. We heartily recommend the Boston Yacht Haven Inn to anyone and everyone!!!

We stayed at Yacht Haven in March of 2022. The room and property were clean and updated. We enjoyed the daily breakfast (quiche, fresh fruit, French toast, bacon, etc.) in our room overlooking Boston Harbor. The hotel is easy walking distance to everything in the North End and beyond. There is a common area lounge that has coffee, tea, sometimes snacks, TVs and a pool table overlooking the harbor. If we ever have the opportunity, we will definitely stay at the Yacht Haven again.

This was such a nice surprise. Never been to Boston prior to this trip, but staying at Boston Yacht Haven Inn was such a bright spot for my family. It’s just as nice as the pictures online. The room was easily 2-3x as large as the nicer big named hotels at the same price or cheaper. It’s a short walk to the Aquarian blue line station for the subway. There are restaurants a very short walk away, and a little farther gets to as many Italian restaurants as you could ever want. You are on the water, so the views are really nice. The main floor of the hotel has an area that looks out on the water with several comfy sofas, a large TV, pool table, and coffee machine with several flavors to choose. We made use of that area in the evenings. The room service breakfast was also very nice, an added price, but extremely convenient and decent food options. I would highly recommend this to anyone, especially a family looking for a place that isn’t such tight quarters, like the other hotels. I’d book here again without question.

The room was lovely and very clean. Breakfast to my room was an added treat. I will stay here every time I'm in Boston if they have availability.

The hotel room was beautiful and within walking distance of many points of interest. The shower was a little tricky to figure out, at first, and the toilet was very loud. However, the bathroom and the rest of the area was clean and modern. The furniture was comfortable, too. A personalized breakfast was brought to the room each morning at our own designated time. The gentleman who delivered our breakfast even came to see us off when we checked out.

We were very impressed with the view from our balcony and took so many wonderful pictures to share with friends and family. The extras like bathrobes, slippers and bottle of wine upon arrival made us feel like special guests and I especially enjoyed the beautiful fresh flower that was on our breakfast trays each morning. A special thank you to the front desk manager that gave me suggestions on the best pizza in town and for the little goodie bag he gave to me. You provided us with such a special stay and we will definitely be returning!

The staff especially Joe was accommodating and very friendly. The property overall was super clean and a relaxing retreat.

It was an amazing hotel. Enjoyed every bit of it. My only issue is the front desk desk closes in the evening and not open until 8am or something - the cell number listed never worked. Front desk number from room after 8am didn’t work. That was the only frustrating part. I just couldn’t reach anyone.

The atmosphere was serene—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The staff delivered exceptional service, consistently going above and beyond to make our stay seamless and enjoyable. From check-in to check-out, every detail was handled with care and professionalism. The location, while central, remained peaceful, offering a rare combination of convenience and quiet. The spacious penthouse, complete with luxurious amenities, was immaculate and comfortable. This hidden gem is the ideal escape for anyone seeking luxury, relaxation, and attentive service.

A bottle of wine & biscotti waiting in our room, breakfast delivered to your room... we felt very welcome! It was our first visit to Boston and this location perfect. We walked to the "North End" and enjoyed a wonderful Italian meal, just a short uber drive to Fenway and the Boston Commons. Boston has become one of our favorite cities... and will definitely book Boston Yacht Haven when we return!
