There's a particular kind of property that travellers keep coming back to in Boston: Pennyweight Hotel Boston, Curio Collection by Hilton, a four-star in Downtown Boston, fits that bill. Geographically speaking it's within an easy walk of the city centre, and the strong location rating in guest reviews backs that up. Inside, the rooms are well-appointed, and guests pick out on-site parking, an in-house restaurant and reliable wi-fi as the small things that add up over a stay. It feels lived-in rather than staged, which tends to be the difference between a stay you remember and one you don't. With around 750 reviews on the books and a solid average, the reception from guests does most of the talking here. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Recent rates have been hovering around €262 a night, which lands as a middle-of-the-road option for the city. The honest read on Pennyweight Hotel Boston, Curio Collection by Hilton is that it deserves a side-by-side look against the bigger Boston names rather than a headline of its own.
