We have stayed at this hotel a handful of times now and it never disappoints. Excellent from the moment you arrive to the second you depart. We appreciate this hotel especially at the moment due to its close proximity to Mass General Hospital.

My wife and I loved everything at the Liberty Hotel, location, view, Hotel is the best we’ve ever stayed in, restaurant and food very good as well. We will be back.
It was a little chilly in the restaurant. We’re in the heating business and understand why, the Scampo.

The location, fantastically comfortable bedding, and a sense of difference
Our room didn’t seem well maintained - needed a refresh, the handle for the shower fell off, the flow was very poor, the scales didn’t work, staff didn’t offer papers tell us about breakfast - and others were getting Prosecco and I had to ask - but I was a member and genius booking.com member??

About
Overview
Housed in an iconic Boston landmark and originally built as a prison in 1851, the Liberty Hotel is a unique luxury property with a fun, modern atmosphere and design that honors the building’s rich history.
Liberty Hotel underwent a restoration in 2007 and in 2016; an $11 million dollar investment pushed the hotel into luxury. The 298 rooms at the hotel are stylish and elegant, with interesting decorative elements that incorporate the incarceration theme, and upscale bathrooms with separate rain showers and soaking tubs. Details such as framed skeleton keys, heavy vaults for bedside tables, and earth tones make the rooms classy while giving praise to history. Amenities include quality Luxury Collection beds topped with Frette linens, large flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and minibars.
The Liberty features three restaurants and two bars, each with a distinct dining option. Multiple dining options combined with a fitness center, 24-hour business center, indoor and outdoor event space, and pet-friendly accommodations all make this hotel one of the best values in Boston. The intriguing back story and architectural grace make it one of the most attractive hotels in the area.
Located in Boston’s Beacon Hill community and two blocks from the Charles River, the Liberty is just a short walk to lots of shopping, dining, and tourist sites such as the Charles River Esplanade, the Museum of Science, and the Boston Common. The hotel is also a 10-minute drive from Fenway Park, Harvard Square, Harvard University and Faneuil Hall.
The Liberty is popular with couples and business travelers but is also a great choice for visitors interested in history.
