Our group had a great week at the Charlesmark! The location right in the heart of Boston is ideal, we were steps away from great shopping and charming historic landmarks. The rooms were cozy, clean, and hip. The staff was courteous and very helpful - they extendes us every courtesy. The hotel was accommodating, helping us with a last minute... More

My husband and I stayed at the Charlesmark during the perfect storm time period for getting a hotel room in Boston....Spring and multiple college and university graduations. We were in town for one such graduation. I picked the Charlesmark for location. It is in the perfect spot... Copley Square and just steps from the "Green line T" (Boston's mass transit... More

My wife and I stayed here last summer on the tail end of a road trip from NY through ME and MA. Reception was very pleasant and quick. Upon entering out room we were greeted by the sound of classical music playing lightly in the background, the room was clean and modern. Our room was small but comfortable, the bathroom... More

The location is fantastic. We bar hopped our way to Fenway park. The hotel is small and eclectic, very contemporary. It was clean and the rooms made the most of the space they had. Dan and Curt at the front desk were cheerful and helpful offering tips on bars as well as loaning a forgotten phone charger. Breakfast was very... More

After reading the reviews for this hotel we felt sure it was a good find. It is in a great location as mentioned in other reviews. It also lived up to the modern & trendy decor and vibe but I wasn't quite prepared for how small the rooms and bed in a standard room are! I don't really mind a... More

My wife and I just returned from Boston where we stayed at the Charlesmark. Sadly I became sick shortly after arriving so I spent more time in the room then expected but this was the place to do it. While small the rooms were not cramped though I wouldn't want more then two people. There was an older style tv... More

Stayed in a standard room which was compact but adequate for a single occupant. Very clean room and bathroom. They had copy of Boston Top 10 for guest use which was a nice touch. The only complaint about the room from me is that I could hear creaking noises (presumably from the occupant above) sometimes at night, otherwise a very... More

this property has possibly 35 rooms, Very small rooms. Everything you need and nothing extra. the a breakfast is marginal. We sampled 3 of the smallest rooms, the first two were problematic -- needed maintenance. The third room works beautifully.

The Charlesmark is right in the middle of the Boston shopping and business district, and only a 30 mins walk to the university campuses at Longwood. Location-wise it couldn't be better. While the rooms are rather small they have comfortable beds, free wifi and great showers. The free 24/7 coffee and tea, plus complimentary breakfast (bagels, pastries and OJ) are... More

Hotels in the US just now always seem rather pricey! However, on a recent visit to Boston I was pleased to find excellent value for money, pleasant staff and comfortable accommodation well within budget. Will certainly stay again.......,
