I love this place!

CitizenM in Back Bay is not only beautiful and looks like what you see in their pictures, it's clean and spacious in the common areas near the restaurant. I really enjoyed the room as well. It's not a large room, but it's great for a solo traveler and I had the most restful sleep there. This was such a great experience and the hotel's location is not far from restaurants and cafes. I am looking forward to staying there again soon.

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights for a reset weekend. The check-in was super easy, the room was cozy and clean. The staff was friendly and super helpful. The view from the room was excellent. The area has a lot of shops that are in walking distance. We will return.

Me and my fiancé stayed for the weekend and we loved it! 10/10 absolutely recommend. Jenna and Niya genuinely made our trips to the CanteenM amazing <3 As well as Jenna being super helpful and quick when we hit a snag while checking out! the food was amazing and way more affordable than any other hotel food I’ve ever tried, no complaints at all for the CanteenM (The nachos, hot chocolate and breakfast were spectacular) We found the lobby to be beautiful, and the rooms to be clean and the perfect intimate size for a quick get away. They provided a lot of tools and technology to make sure you enjoyed your stay and were comfortable, The bed was one of the comfiest beds I ever slept on and the view was amazing! Very well thought out hotel, if you’re ever visiting Boston for a quick trip I recommend!
