List Price: $324 per nightLocation: Back Bay

Bought from the Ritz-Carlton in 2007, the Taj Boston holds on to the Ritz’ elegant look, but also offers some superb perks, like chenille bathrobes and free rides in the house Jaguar. Given its free business center, well-equipped gym, and ideal location bordering the Public Garden and the swank boutiques along Newbury Street, it’s an excellent luxury pick.

List Price: $318 per nightLocation: Downtown and Waterfront

A former Federal Reserve bank turned luxury hotel in the grey, sterile Financial District, the Langham boasts immaculate, distinctively Bostonian rooms, spot-on service, and a stellar spa, but a lack of modern features like flat-screen TVs and Wi-Fi, plus significant street noise, keep it from attaining perfection.

Just around the corner from Newbury Street, this French-inspired, 95-unit Back Bay boutique offers mostly spacious, elegant suites with (smallish) marble bathrooms, a well-regarded French restaurant and sashimi bar, free passes to Boston Sports Club, and in-room touch-screens through which guests can make lots of service requests.

With large, stylish rooms, a Jean-Georges restaurant, a happening bar, and a Bliss spa on the way, the brand-new, 235-room outpost of the trendy brand offers a striking, modern alternative to Boston’s historic hotels and traditional chains. Too bad it lacks the unique charms of smaller boutique properties. Read the full W Boston hotel review.
