Press Quotes

“The Mandarin Oriental, Boston offers guests such luxuries as 400-count Frette bed linens, duvets by Ploh and oversized soaking tubs. It takes more than fluffy pillows and room service to have scored that fifth star.”

Boston Herald, November 17, 2011

“I love everything about this hotel – from the warm and friendly welcome I received and the courtesy Mercedes guest car on hand, to the luxurious rooms and lovely spa.”

WendyFurrer.com, October 29, 2011

“Even the most basic guest rooms at this Back Bay behemoth overflow with amenities. But what stands out is the way staffers treat you: like a frequent, honored guest, even if it’s the only time you’ll ever visit.”

Boston Magazine, August 1, 2011

“Whether choosing the Mandarin Oriental, Boston as a meeting place, for pleasure or for a special event, every need will be seamlessly anticipated and met without hesitation.”

Frontiers in LA, May 18, 2011

“Kudos to the Mandarin for showing that edginess and sophistication can go hand in hand. From the moment you enter, floor-to-ceiling art and Asian minimalist design combine to create a sexy, modern vibe.”

New England Travel, April 28, 2011

“The Mandarin is located in the fashionable Back Bay neighborhood and makes it the perfect starting point to explore Boston…but that’s only if you can convince yourself to leave the luxury of your room!”

LuxBoston.com, March 23, 2011

“The Mandarin Oriental is contemporary and uncluttered and its highly rated spa’s as much an attraction as the Frette robes, towels and linens.”
