Newbury Guest House earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment for its prime Newbury Street location, warm and attentive staff, and cozy boutique atmosphere in a classic Boston brownstone. The most consistent gripe is the absence of breakfast, though the complimentary lobby coffee station and abundance of nearby eateries soften the blow; a handful of guests also flagged a broken elevator and minor room maintenance issues. Travellers seeking a characterful, well-located base rather than a full-service hotel will find it hard to fault.
- No breakfast offered (multiple guests wished it was available)
- Elevator was out of service during some stays, problematic for upper-floor guests
- Rooms lack modern tech: no smart TV / streaming apps, limited charging outlets
- Minor maintenance issues noted (loose electrical sockets, sticking bathroom door, low shower pressure)
- Some rooms described as small
“The guesthouse is super cozy and comfy, and beautifully decorated. Cannot be happier with the guesthouse.”
“The staff are exceptionally kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we slept wonderfully.”
“The elevator wasn't working, but the staff did everything possible to make it comfortable.”
“No breakfast but coffee and tea were included and in free service all day in the lobby. I will come back!”
“I loved that it was in one of those brownstones rather than a huge hotel. It felt more quaint. I would definitely stay there again.”
