A waterfront hotel in Boston is not solely the best in the metropolis, it’s also amongst the top motels in the world.
The InterContinental Boston was acknowledged as the No. 1 hotel in Boston and the 24th best hotel in the world in Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Awards 2025.
The annual awards have been the results of greater than 750,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers, who submitted their journey experiences from throughout the globe.
“We are deeply honored to have been selected as the number one hotel in Boston,” General Manager Bradford Rice mentioned in a press launch.
“This award is a true testament to the dedication to hospitality that our team strives for every day, and we are immensely grateful to all of our guests, clients and supporters,” Rice mentioned. “We take great pride in cultivating exceptional, inspiring experiences for all that walk through our doors.”
Originally opened in 2006, the InterContinental Boston is a 424-room hotel situated alongside Boston’s historic waterfront. The hotel was constructed on the website of the Boston Tea Party and designed to evoke the picture of sails blowing in the wind.
The InterContinental underwent a number of renovations that included a redesigned foyer and new eating idea known as Matria, which opened in summer 2024. The hotel’s different eating ideas are cocktail lounge Bar Fellini and speakeasy Loyall Counting Room.
“Newly renovated rooms and suites range from 420-square-foot rooms overlooking the verdant Rose Kennedy Greenway to a 2,100-square-foot corner Royal Ambassador suite — complete with two bedrooms, a service kitchen, plush living room, and a full office perched above the Fort Point Channel,” Condé Nast Traveler wrote of the InterContinental.
“If it’s a suite you’re here for, the property has plenty with corner views of the water so you can feel like you live in one of Boston’s most luxe real-estate corners,” the outlet continued. “But rooms are well-appointed, too — there’s barely a bad view from this property — with workspaces, velvet banquette chairs, plush linens, and roomy standalone tubs with handy sliding-door windows that open into the room so you can doubly enjoy that waterfront view.”
Another notable accommodation is the Spa InterContinental that features a state-of-the-art fitness center, one of Boston’s only indoor pools and revitalizing body and facial treatments.
The InterContinental Hotel is situated at 510 Atlantic Ave. Prospective visitors can verify the hotel’s website for extra info, together with room charges and availability.
