Yelp Review 2026 #183:…read more Staying here for the World Cup has been quite convenient. It's walking distance from public transportation such as the bus stop and train station. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, bars, things to do and landmark nearby. My red-eye flight arrived at 5am and check-in time is at 4pm. I wasn't really able to sleep on the plane. They allow early check-in for a price. I rested in the room for an hour before waking around Boston. Currently, they have world flags all over the entrance and the lobby. They have a restaurant with a World Cup menu. The lobby is on the third floor and you'd have to hand an elevator. From the lobby, there's another set of elevators that go to each room floor. The room is clean, quiet and spacious. My naps and sleep have been relaxing deep as the bed is comfy. The bathroom is a decent size. The toiletries smell nice and so far, my skin hasn't reacted to the products. The front desk staff is alright.

Stayed here for a few nights in a double bed room, and it was such a comfortable stay. The room was…read morenice and spacious which felt amazing after coming from a much smaller hotel in nyc. The location was solid right in the middle of downtown. There were tons of shops, restaurants, and attractions within a short walk. The staff were friendly and welcoming during check in. Overall a great experience and a hotel I'd definitely stay at again on my next trip to Boston.

While in Boston a family friend took us here. Two kids altogether had real fun, a pleasant place to…read morehangout with or without kids. Huge space with the swings (the ultimate thing in this park), ping pongs, corn holes, big screen... It was free admission when we were here and a lot of people were there on the swing, we had to wait for sometime for our turns, but it was fun. If your around this park, just stop by for a while and enjoy the swing. Parking was on street!

First time here and all I can say is WOW!! Beautiful space! They've done a really amazing job with…read morethe renovations to this space! From the green 'grass' to the swings to the greenery and the lighting and the huge stage with an awesome sound system - really great! We went here for live band karaoke with our favorite band called Five Minutes of Fame - they're playing every Thursday night from 7-10 pm. So if you're into singing with a live band go on over and live out your rockstar dreams! They had the food truck called The Grove which I think has a very limiting menu - in terms of healthy and tasty - which is my requirement. I got the grove salad with chicken and it was just ok - nothing to write home about. The hubs had the BLT sandwich which he liked but also found it quite greasy. There are restrooms which are these portable ones in these trailers and they're very nice and clean but the individual ones on the opposite end of the stage was very smelly. The ones behind the stage were better. Running water, flush everything- like a proper restroom. So that is good. We got parking through SpotHero at a nearby parking lot - it was $26 but we didn't want to take chance looking around for parking that is why. But our friends said they found street parking so it's possible to find free parking too. Overall we had a great time, the weather was perfect beautiful summer evening - and great music! We'll be back for more live band karaoke!

The place is lovely. Sits only 50 people, 5 round tables,…read moreno kitchen, just a sink and a fridge. Caterers aren't even to cater properly with the back room provided. Decorations are at a minimum. No leeway for any kind of customization there. No guest can hang outside the venue. But the management is horrible. When you call them they pick up the phone with no greeting or anything. They pick up and say "AHLO?" And sometimes I begin to question if it's franchescas on waterplace that I'm calling. I've scheduled to see the venue after putting my deposit down. Once I got there nobody was there. I called in the rain and nobody picked up. Nobody got back to me in 3 days. Save everyone time and their deposit money. It's $2500. If you pay upfront (which you have to) they reserve the right to keep it regardless of cancellations due to covid or anything else. Was a head ache the whole time. Place is pretty, but unprofessional to work with.

Venue is beautiful, perfect for the shower/exactly what we were looking for aesthetically. CAUTION:…read moreDocument everything discussed with Franchesca and proceed with caution when communicating. For some strange reason she always "means something else." It seems that Franchesca's preference is to talk over the phone rather than providing written responses to emails. During several conversations with myself, mom to be, and mother of the mom to be (all separate conversations), Franchesca gave favorable responses then changed her response about capacity, parking, ADA access, clean up, rentals, etc. (I believe she just needed a booking so she said yes to all of my questions). Franchesca never updated the contract, did not send a fully executed contract, was misleading about parking and ADA access, didn't know how to work her own speaker, told us that the shelves in the fridge couldn't be removed to put the cake inside, and the list goes on. Franchesca also told me that she would not be present during the event but would be in reach if I needed her because she doesn't have an office on-site, which was fine. During set up, her husband introduced himself and said that if I needed anything, his number was on the wall. He didn't leave, in fact, he babysat our event, walking in and out as he pleased. Several people asked who he was because he was very much out of place. At one point I came out of the kitchen and he had a plate of food. Another time, I came out of the kitchen and he was eating a slice of cake. He certainly wasn't there to help because we did absolutely everything (set up, trash, dismantle, speaker, etc.). After we paid in full, Franchesca became difficult to talk to. She kept cutting us (mom to be, myself) off during conversations before we could complete a thought. She also told us that she would clean everything, then decided that she didn't clean and we had to remove our own trash unless we paid her $150 additional for trash removal because she didn't have access to a dumpster. The time allotted wasn't worth the price, especially when her husband lingered like we were in his way (very tacky). Wasn't a comfortable feeling as we felt we were being watched throughout our rental. The shower was gorgeous and all the guests were pleased. My overall experience for the price I paid is about a 4 (1-10 scale).

I was very surprised that there was no Valet, they expect guests to walk all that way and especially women in formal gowns and heels? I deducted half a star for the parking situation. It's a beautiful location with great staff and food! Although they served crab as an app, they were not opened and they only provided folks- how are we suppose to open the crab to eat it?? Also, steak with no steak knife- even the most tender of fillets needs a steak knife! Deducted another half star for this. This is a lovely event facility, beautifully decorated and they used the space well for a good size wedding event. Just some small issues that could easily be ironed out to make this a 5 star venue!

I had my wedding reception at The View in September and it was absolutely perfect! I planned the…read moreevent on a short timeline and Donna was great to work with throughout the process - very responsive and accommodating. Of course the view of Pepperrell Cove is breathtaking, but the real star of the show here is the food. We were able to custom tailor the menu to be exactly what we wanted to serve, and it was all made on-site from fresh ingredients - something that is not easy to find at event venues. My family is Italian, from New York and hard to please when it comes to food, and they were all raving about every single dish that was served. Donna's assistance leading up to the event in coordinating with vendors and her hands-on presence during event night made the process seamless. I didn't have a wedding planner / day-of coordinator, and ended up not needing one - she made everything happen perfectly, even making sure our elderly guests had easy access to their seats. I couldn't recommend The View more for a wedding!

Where to begin, The View is Amazing! Our wedding was on May 1st 2021 and was truly a magical day. I…read moreplanned our wedding from across the country during the pandemic and couldn't have done it without Donna's help, she really does make you feel like family & wants the best for your special day. Being a NH local, as soon as we toured The View we knew it was the venue for us. Donna & team made every step of the process exceed expectations - from our tasting to the wedding day it was everything we could have hoped for and more. The food was incredible, thank you Chef Eides! We had people complementing it for weeks after the wedding (the house made lemon cheesecake, wow). We wish we could go back and re-live our day over and over again because it was that good. The service and execution that Donna, Eides, and the entire Pepperrell Cove staff offer is next level. We can't recommend this venue enough. Thank you SO MUCH for making it the best day of our lives. Taylor & Justin Jones

Our waitress was super friendly and perfectly attentive and best of all - she didn't rush us even though it was clearly turning into the night scene around us! Cornbread - yum!!

After a kinda meh first experience last year for Providence Restaurant Week, we decided to give it another try. And we were glad we did! It was a Friday night & pretty busy for 5:30pm. I'm glad I made a reservation! Our server, Ayden, made the whole experience very special! He was personable, available & fun to chat with as he is also a semi-professional wrestler. We were there to try the nachos as they looked delicious when other diners ordered them. WOW! It is a HUGE platter of chips topped with shredded monterey jack, homemade black bean corn salsa, beer cheese queso & a drizzle of guacamole & sour cream. I asked for extra queso because I like everything to be smothered & that it was! Two people could easily make a meal of this platter alone. And we didn't even add any protein (pulled pork, grilled or crispy chicken option)! Not knowing the size of the nachos, we wanted to try something else. I asked Ayden: quesadilla or Nashville naan. He said for former but we felt that we were already doing a Tex-Mex inspired dish so we opted for the latter. On top of naan, crispy chicken with mozzarella, smoked bacon, scallions & house-infused hot honey drizzle. A good amount of toppings & the naan was delightfully chewy. I thought it was going to be Nashville hot spicy given the name but you have to order Nashville hot or buffalo chicken for an additional charge. We added a good amount of Cholula to kick it up a notch! Definitely a good return visit. Thanks Ayden for making us feel special & being such a fun person. We'll be dreaming about those nachos until the next visit! NOM NOM NOM #YUM

I've been a regular at Venezia for many years. As someone who has lived in the neighborhood most of…read moremy life, Venezia has always felt like more than just a restaurant--it's a place run by genuinely caring people who make you feel like family. The Bruno family, managers, and staff have always been welcoming, often taking a few moments to stop by and chat. Their hospitality is one of the many reasons we frequent there. Last Wednesday, following my father's funeral, our family held a gathering at Venezia in the back room overlooking the water and Boston. The view was wonderful, the food was excellent, and the staff worked incredibly hard to ensure that every guest was taken care of throughout the afternoon. A special thank you to Laurie, who helped coordinate everything from the beginning. She went above and beyond, frequently checking in to make sure everything was running smoothly and that our family had everything we needed during a very difficult time. On behalf of my entire family, I want to sincerely thank Laurie, the staff, and the Bruno family for their kindness, professionalism, and support. Your efforts meant more to us than you know, and you helped make a difficult day a little easier. We are truly grateful.

Luckily, it must have been quiet in there because at least 30 of us came to the establishment and were served. Some people ordered food, but we did not. The staff was super helpful and kind. The bartender was quick to take our order, even though most of us showed up at the same time. I ordered a moscow mule, which was crisp and delicious. My husband ordered an espresso martini that was, unfortunately, spilled by his cousin. The staff was quick to come clean it up for us as we felt horrible about it happening. The views the establishment had of the Boston Harbor were absolutely stunning at night. We went outside and checked out some jelly-fish in the marina attached to it, too. I would love to come back and try their food!
