Beacon Hill Hotel and Bistro

The restaurant is really enough to recommend this boutique hotel that's situated on a quaint, old-world style commercial street north of the Boston Common and Public Garden. The food is delicious from appetizer to dessert, with fresh ingredients used in inventive and tantalizing ways. The reception staff is friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for exploring the historic sights, shopping and other dining options in Downtown Boston (if you can tear yourself away from the hotel's restaurant!) Free wireless Internet throughout is a great perk.
