About

The Godfrey Hotel Boston is a 242-room boutique hotel in Downtown Crossing, set inside the Amory and Blake buildings, built in 1904 and 1908 and restored before the hotel opened in 2016, at the corner of Washington Street and Temple Place. The rooms are modern and calm, with a neutral palette, and the ground floor holds a coffee bar and a Peruvian-Japanese restaurant.

It suits theater-goers, shoppers and dog owners. Downtown Crossing station (Orange and Red Lines) is steps away, Boston Common is a block west, and Temple Place, one of downtown's busiest little streets for drinks, starts at the hotel with jm Curley, The Wig Shop and Democracy Brewing.

Rooms

Categories include King and Double Queen rooms, the Executive King, accessible rooms and a compact room the hotel calls The Cozy, which suits solo travelers on a budget.

Coffee and dinner

RUKA Restobar serves Nikkei food, the Peruvian-Japanese cuisine of Lima, with ceviche, maki and cocktails in a dramatic dining room.

George Howell Coffee runs the lobby café, one of Boston's best-known roasters. Room service and a paid continental breakfast are also available.

Traveling with dogs

The Godfrey welcomes up to two dogs of any size in designated pet-friendly rooms, and it does not charge a pet fee. Cats are not accepted.

The neighborhood

Downtown Crossing is Boston's pedestrian shopping district, with department stores, the Brattle Book Shop and food halls a short walk away. The Boston Opera House and the Paramount Center are a block or two south, and Chinatown begins a few minutes beyond. Ladder District bars along Temple Place and West Street stay busy late into the evening.

Getting there

Downtown Crossing station on the Red and Orange Lines is steps away, and Park Street is a five-minute walk. From Logan Airport, the free Silver Line SL1 bus runs from the terminals to South Station, and a taxi or ride-share takes about 15 to 25 minutes outside rush hour.

Before you book

Check-in is at 3 p.m. and checkout at noon. Valet parking is about $52 a night with unlimited in-and-out access, which is low for downtown Boston.
