We stayed at the Clarendon for three nights in mid May, arriving in a thunderous downpour of rain around 6pm. Maia, the innkeeper, was just about to get off work but graciously stayed to show us around. She took the time to tell us all about the inn, the surrounding area, give us advice for restaurants within walking distance, etc.... More

We stayed in the Luxury Suite April 25-28 and we found not one thing about this place that we didn't enjoy! I have held off on this review for a few weeks just thinking back on everything I wanted to mention about our stay. Starting with the website and the pre-booking process, the staff was very polite and professional answering... More

My husband and I travelled overseas for the first time and one of our stops was Boston. We stayed at the Clarendon Inn and were very excited with our choice of accommodation. Our host Maia was very friendly and helpful with directions and advice on attractions and dinner suggestions. The Inn was immaculate and our room was very spacious, clean... More

We have stayed in the Clarendon Square Inn from 17 April to 20 April. We chose Clarendon square inn because of the enormous positive reviews on tripadvisor and we had very high expectation.  The contemporary design of this inn built in a historical building had gave us a very good first impression. The rooms were well appointed with a cozy... More

We were in for the Boston Marathon and wanted to be walking distance from the finish. The location is easily with in walking distance from most sites and wonderful restaurants! The meticulous attention to detail in the renovation of this historic brownstone is evident in every corner. It is lovely without being over done. We stayed in the master suite... More

My husband and I have traveled l over the world from Paris to Bangkok to Sydney, and I dare say this was our favorite place we have stayed. We stayed in the smallest room on the property, but it was romantic and cozy. Location is beautiful with the whole city at your fingertips. Hosts were very friendly, knowledgable and helpful....

My girlfriend and I were looking for a romantic place to get away from day to day life. We choose the Clarendon Square B&B and couldn't have been happier about that choice. The warm and hospitable service we received right from the start of our getaway was exceptional. The entrance way was equipped with complimentary espresso and warm cookies. The... More

My boyfriend and I wanted to get away on a recent college grad budget and we couldn't have picked a better place. My favorite part about the Clarendon Square Inn was its authentic Boston feel. It has always been a dream of mine to live in the city and for a night it became a reality. The best restaurants, bars,... More

We visited Clarendon Square from 10th to 14th February, straight after what was definitely the most impressive blizzard we have ever seen. Before our arrival we spoke to Stephen (the owner) about our concerns that we may not arrive on time or even the right day and he was incredibly helpful, informing us that our room would be ready whenever...

My Fiance' and I just stayed at this place and we were very impressed. I never review places, but felt like this place deserves recognition. First, it had a very cool design on the inside and when I think of "bed and breakfast" places I think of them being a little ghetto. This place blew me away with its style,... More
