Royal Sonesta Resort Boston

Thinking about organizing a business meeting or just hanging out in Boston in a sophisticated very green oriented hotel, that gives one a good feeling, knowing that you can enjoy some of the finer things in life without detriment to society? This is a new concept that is rapidly taking hold in the U.S. and globally.

This is what one will experience as they sip a glass of wine on the partially shaded patio of the Royal Sonesta Resort Boston , overlooking the Charles River which separates Boston from Cambridge.

Entering the Hotel one is greeted with friendly and helpful faces, not just well trained but sincerity that shows management takes an active part in hiring people that appropriately fit their respective positions.

The rooms are very comfortable and well laid out for the allotted space. Bathrooms are large with high counter tops and excellent assortment of amenities. Furniture is modern Danish, comfortable and efficient with firm king size beds sporting comforters beckoning one to resist early morning rising. Virtually every room has a view of the Charles River and its sporting events and weekend mariners.

Downstairs is the ArtBar, one finds world-class art surrounding you in a cozy and intimate retreat, providing refined organically seasonal American cuisine with an impressive wine list and specialty cocktails. If one decides to hold the cocktails, a short ten minute walk and you’re at the Museum of Science, where both adult and child can spend endless hours in a fascinating learning environment. Courtesy Van Service can whisk you to shopping areas and historic sites both in Boston and Cambridge on a daily schedule.

Special programs during the year offer added services and discounts as seen with their Summer Fest, where complimentary bicycles and ice cream, free van service and scenic boat rides, kids under 18 (20) staying free and under 12 eating free (up to 4) with purchase of an adult entrée, are just some of the specials offered.

This AAA 4-diamond 400-room hotel is totally dedicated to going “green,” as witnessed by their extensive recycling program, low-flow water accessories, organic and local produce utilization and their commitment to donating all leftover perishable foods to Second Helping at the Greater Boston Food Bank. This is an entity which gives back to the system and one that will hopefully be emulated by others for the betterment of all.
