About

The Newbury Boston stands at the corner of Newbury and Arlington Streets, where Back Bay's main shopping street begins and the Boston Public Garden lies directly across the road. The building has been a hotel for nearly a century, and after a full restoration it now operates under its own name, with 286 rooms and suites, guest rooms designed by Alexandra Champalimaud and original artwork by the illustrator Veronica Lawlor throughout.

It suits a couple's weekend, a special-occasion night, or a first visit that wants Back Bay shopping and the Public Garden on the doorstep without a car. Arlington station on the Green Line is one block away, and Park Street on the Red Line and Back Bay station on the Orange Line are the other stations the hotel points guests to.

Rooms and views

Several room categories look over the Public Garden or down Commonwealth Avenue, while others face the city, so the outlook is worth specifying when you book. Fireplace Suites add a hearth for the colder months, and the Collection Suites run up to The Mansion, the Presidential Suite on the 15th floor. Rooms are furnished in handcrafted woods and marble, and each has a Nespresso Vertuo machine.

The Library and fitness

The Library is a salon reserved for hotel guests, with books curated by the Boston Public Library and a discreet connection to The Street Bar. Coffee and freshly baked pastries are set out in the morning, and a chef-curated selection of sweet and savory bites follows in the afternoon and evening. The 24-hour fitness center on the third floor was designed by Jay Wright. Both come with the nightly residential fee described in the FAQ.

Traveling with a dog

Dogs are welcome, up to two per room, and the hotel sells a dedicated package for four-legged guests. The 10th floor is kept pet-free for travelers with allergies, which is worth requesting at booking if that matters to you.

Recognition

The MICHELIN Guide awards The Newbury Two MICHELIN Keys, its distinction for an exceptional stay.

Restaurants and bars

Both venues are run with Major Food Group, the restaurant company behind the hotel's food and drink.

Contessa is the rooftop restaurant, a glass-enclosed, four-season room designed by Ken Fulk with views across Back Bay. The menu is Italian, inspired by the grand villas of Northern Italy. It serves breakfast and lunch on weekdays, a daytime menu on weekends and holiday Mondays, and dinner every night, later on Thursday to Saturday.

The Street Bar is the hotel's wood-paneled bar, with fireplaces and windows onto Newbury Street. It serves cocktails, wine and bar food such as oysters, a lobster roll and a Wagyu burger from late morning until after midnight, and hosts afternoon tea.
