Calamari appetizer in hotel bar/restaurant
CJ M.

Surprised to see so many poor reviews on this hotel. We stayed for one night and had a great experience. The hotel seems recently renovated. Had a nice, fresh, clean smell (but not overpowering) throughout. Besides the lighting in the room (dim - only small lamps in room), not being able to adjust the air lower than 65 degrees), & weaker water pressure in the shower, the room was a decent size, had nice neutral color palette, and was obviously super convenient to Gillette and/or all of the restaurants/shops. And they carry all Aveda products (score!) in the bathroom. The bar was nice - good selection of craft beers and friendly staff. The Caesar salad was delicious. The calamari, while not fried , like I was expecting, wasn't terrible. Just not very appetizing looking (see pic). Would definitely recommend this hotel if staying near Gillette is important.

The hotel rooms were nice. But the hotel lobby, hallways, and functions halls were hot AF... The food at my friend's wedding was horrible. The chef should be ashamed of the food they served. The chicken breast was the size of a small chicken wing matched with 3 potatoes . The fish

We normally like Marriott hotels, however this one did not live up to Renaissance standards. First the positive notes or should I say note: the staff was very talented and nice, especially the front desk. Now to the negative observations. First, while the design of the rooms had a functional twist, that vision fell extremely short when installing the bathroom plugs. I suppose if you just need to plug in one item at a time, then you wouldn't notice the disaster; however, when you need your watch to charge or your curling iron to get hot as well as wanting the hair dryer to blow, you are just plainly SOL. See picture for details. Next, you want ice! Well, they have a machine on each floor, however floor 5, 4 and 3 do not work (we gave up going floor to floor by this time). We informed the front staff and while they were helpful in getting us ice from the bar, mentioned that those ice machines haven't worked in a while and they thought the second-floor machine still worked... Really, it's turned into a guessing game... if only someone could fix or get them replaced??? The last issue that I wanted to bring up was the water pressure... It was like playing the lottery, you may win today or not! May the pressure odds be ever in your favor.

View from our room of the stadium!

My husband and I stayed here for one night last weekend to see Taylor Swift the Eras Tour. We splurged on this hotel due to the proximity to Gillette Stadium (peep our view of the stadium from our bedroom window!) and ease for him to relax while I attended the concert. As I was attending the show alone, we felt comfortable about me walking to and from the concert solo and getting a good night of sleep after the concert. The "event rate" was close to $2600 after taxes for ONE night and I say that to explain how I sum up the experience: it was the most expensive, worst night of sleep I've ever had!! While I was at the concert, the AC broke in our hotel room while my husband slept. He woke up and it was over 90 degrees in our room. He attempted to call the front desk but apparently the phone in our room didn't work. He finally got ahold of someone around midnight. The hotel was responsive with sending a tech up immediately, and when I returned around 12:30am there were two men in our room working on the AC. The temp fluctuated from 78-95 degrees over the next hour. After having attended a long (fantastic!) concert, the last thing I wanted was to sit in our hotel room wearing my sweaty clothes with two strange men in the room. Around 1:30am the general manager came into our room, remarked on how hot it was, and said that he would move us to another room. We had to quickly pack our things and traipse up two floors to a new room. After a shower and settling in, it was 3am and we were talking about how we should have saved our $2600 and just gone back to our other lodging option! We were not offered late checkout -- in fact, the maid walked in at 10am expecting to clean an empty room (though checkout was supposed to be at 11)-- nor were we offered any compensation for our poor night's sleep. We were charged the full amount and when I messaged Marriott about our experience, were offered bonus points that wouldn't even cover another night's stay at the Renaissance during their regular rate (which is ~$150-200 per night). I gave the hotel 2 stars because the receptionist at checkin was fantastic, the hotel was clean, the techs were responsive and attempted to fix the AC in the middle of the night, we appreciated that the GM came up to help, and the location was perfect. I took 3 stars away because it was the worst night I've ever had in a hotel, no attempt was made to make up for the poor night of sleep, and the event rate was exorbitant. For what we paid, I expected a good night's sleep, not having strangers in my room for 90 mins in the middle of the night, having to pack up and move at 2am, and not getting any extra time in the morning or offer of something to repair the situation.

Poor poor lighting in the room. Taking a shower was a hassle. Hot water running and you could hear the pipes rattling and squeaking. Hotel staff was great and no complaints there but the rooms are essentially a high end motel 6 room. Air conditioning wouldn't get cold, room was just too uncomfortable to sleep in.Could've gotten a cheaper room at Encore in Boston . Been to worse but this isn't also the best place I've stayed.

This one is tough- I think it's more of a 2.5. It was $200 on a Monday night, which I didn't think was bad, but I guess is pretty pricey for the area. You're paying to be in Patriots place, though that isn't why we came. The young woman who checked us in was extremely friendly and professional. The lobby gave us a great first impression- modern and clean. The room was also nice and clean and the beds were comfy. The hotel is newer so no issues with the thermostat etc. It's a smart tv and I was able to log into Netflix. WiFi is also free. Now for the cons- Lighting: There is very little lighting, so if you need to do any work at night expect to have your eyes strained. Don't waste your hard earned money on room service, it's a joke: I took my mom here as a little treat while I was visiting MA. This looked like the nicest hotel in the immediate area so we booked a room with two queens. My Mom wanted to get room service. I looked high and low in the room for a welcome binder with local info and the room service menu but there was none to be found- just the book of Morman and a bible. When I called the front desk she said they didn't have a welcome binder and that we needed to get the menu and any info off the television. Ooook....that's a first. The print on the tv was hard to read and a pain to navigate, definitely not great if you are older, have vision issues, or are just tech impaired. We ordered three beverages and an order of fries. 30 minutes later there was a knock on the door. I've had room service at dozen of hotels and this is the first time I've ever had room service delivered in a brown paper bag. There was no tray, no plate with a nice metal cover, no tiny glass heins ketchup bottle, no cloth napkin etc...Just a sad plastic bag with a plastic food container with two frosty glasses sitting on top of it and icy drinks on each side ensuring that the fries were properly cooled. Really?My first thought was that I should have just called Uber eats. It would have been cheaper. Maybe I'm crazy, but for me part of the allure of room service is the presentation. I tipped $10 on a $30 bill (on top of a $5 room service charge so $15 total) so this was extremely dissapointing. When I asked about it the response was "sorry, we were so busy and I packaged it myself"....the woman who made the delivery was very nice and sheepish about the whole thing. I'm sure she thought I was a jerk for expressing my dissapointment. It's definitely not her fault that the hotel she works in has low standards so I didn't take it out on her by tipping poorly. I did however ask for a real plate to be brought up and ketchup for the frenchfries (usually not things you have to ask for with room service) 10-15 minutes later she returned with a coffee cup saucer and another cocktail plate of the same size. (4 inches across) Apparently they don't have full size plates? If your hotel is too busy to offer room service, then choose to not offer it instead of giving subpar service. I can't believe some people end up paying $1,000 a night here when there is a game in the stadium. (Two nights before that was literally the rate we were quoted for the exact same room pictured, I kid you not friends) If they are understaffed on a quiet Monday night I can only imagine what a mess they must be on the weekend when they are price gouging and charging such a RIDICULOUS ritz Carlton rate.

We needed to stay closer to the city during a move and that hasn't been easy during COVID. The rates were very manageable and they did have several places to eat very close by for delivery. The room was spacious and clean and has all updated amenities. My family were very happy to stay here and will definitely come again.

I spent a few nights here during the football season and the hotel is great. The rooms are crisp and clean. The hotel itself is modern and has a very urban feel with a nice restaurant and bar on the first level. They off a room with a view of the stadium but the best view is from the upper floor room facing south. The south facing rooms give you all the nice afternoon sunsets. The pool is small but large enough for a early morning dip to get ready for your day. If you place to stay there for a football game day plan to get there early because the hotel parking is limited and some people valet their cars for the game.

The room was spotless, modern, and had a sleek, comfortable vibe. I deducted a star because we purchased a room with stadium view and had a view of the roof and the parking lot. The bed was cozy, but the pillows deserve their own shoutout, they were unbelievably comfortable, the kind you actually miss once you get home. Down at the bar, Tom made the experience even better. He mixed up one of the best mules I've ever had and was genuinely great to talk with...friendly, and welcoming. Definitely a place I'd stay again, both for the comfort and the hospitality.

I noticed that, as a Diamond member, they still wanted me to pay for breakfast! It utterly astonishes me the low end places like this still try to charge for breakfast, when so many cheaper places than this, many of them other Hilton Garden Inns, offer free breakfast! Also, they only give Diamond members a $10 food and beverage credit, so it won't even completely cover it if you have more than one guest and get two totaling $20. Don't go anywhere near the concession area there! Yeah sure they have lots of garbage for sale, but when I wanted a single small pizza and a small box of stuffed pizza rolls, plus a water, the bill was $25 for THAT! And the way they try to absolve them selves to blame it on the third party they use to provide the stuff! FYI, my fridge was broken and completely frosted over, so it wouldn't even cool my waters. There was a pizza box with a partially consumed pizza in it too! Yuck! And now my favorite part of the visit, the parking scam they pull there! Because there was a Patriots game happening the night I was there, they tried to hit me with a $60 parking fee too! Upon check in, I discovered this hustle and rebelled against it as soon as I was given a free spot in the retail area in the bigger parking area, due to my disabled placard. Guess what?! Despite telling everyone, from the valet staff, to the manager of the front desk that I had removed my vehicle from the hotel's parking lot, they left it on my bill anyway! When I approached the front desk manager, she told me "it was no problem and would be removed as soon as she spoke to the valet staff to make sure that my car hadn't spent the night in their lot." Then, when they realized that I had outsmarted them and parked in Gillette Stadium's lot, which gives free parking to retail customers at their public restaurants and especially disabled people, moved the goalpost and tried to charge me ANYWAY! What a professional! They stood their ground! I left furious and complained to Hilton Diamond and they told me someone had removed the charge after I left. I'm assuming the GM overruled her robbery of me! Needless to say, anything you do in this hotel is ala cart and they have the excuse of a third party to justify every scam! You have to demand your folio upon check in to see what games they're playing and don't bring a car on the property, event just to unload. The valet guys insist on asking your name and room number before you check in and automatically throw a valet ticket in your car to begin the scam so your car is already theirs, even if you tell them you're not parking with them in the valley service. It's a gang of thieves between the front desk staff and the valet, so beware.

Let's begin with the obvious, it's America's Best Value Inn. VALUE. This is not the Ritz Carlton,…read moreit is not the Four Seasons. If you have fair and reasonable expectations for what this chain is, they you probably won't be disappointed. Now, I will say that we have never stayed at any one of this chain's locations as it is generally not they level of accommodations that we would entertain as an option. Now, despite some of it's shortcomings, we did not have any issues, as a whole, with the grounds, the facility, or even the room. Again, have fair and reasonable expectations. Start from the beginning. Upon entry into the building it looks old and baron and had a slight funk in the air. The gentleman at the counter was polite, courteous, and respectful and handled our check-in efficiently. It was easy. As we made our way to our assigned room, was walked by the lounge/bar/restaurant? area and the funk in the air got stronger and my wife identified this funk as smoke. Maybe the bar/lounge/restaurant has smoking?? I don't know. But as we continues down the hallway to our room, the farther from the bar/lounge/restaurant we got and the closer we got to our room the more that smokey, funky smell dissipated. We entered our room and was pleasantly surprised. Again, for what it is, it was a nice room. It was very obvious they they are making an effort to clean the place up with some renovations. The room appeared "new" as though it had been recently renovated. It was clean, nice, decent television, larger than average fridge, power outlets and USB ports on each tide of the bed. The floors were clean, the best was clean, bathroom also clean and renovations almost complete. The room as a whole was clean and nice. The sofa (sleep sofa?) did have some stains on the cushions and the bathroom ceiling was still a work in progress. One thing the room did have, that we don't usually get in rooms at twice this price but do se in rooms at triple the price, were some complementary bottle water and a few snacks (bags of chips, pretzels, etc.). Now, let me offer a few words about the complimentary breakfast. While it was not vast or abundant, it was a full hot breakfast. A few fruit, cereal, and bread options, eggs, sausage, French toast, etc. Quality... it was okay. They drawback for me on breakfast was it was in the poorly lit, dark, low ceiling, funky lounge/bar/restaurant. But again, managing your expectations and it wasn't bad. Overall, it was NOT A BAD EXPERIENCE. Would we stay here again? Maybe. If we were in this price point, we probably would.

While walking to my room someone in an employee laundry room area was getting high and ran when I walked by. The weed smell didn't stop there. It smelled like someone had just gotten high in my room, wall paper was peeling and was just gross. I almost packed up and left then but called the front desk and asked to move. I told her the issues and I don't think she cared. She at least put me on the second floor a few halls away from my co-worker. It was slightly better I thought. We went to dinner and came back. I walked her to her room because she's younger and pregnant. The halls were filled with pot smell and we are pretty sure a section was dedicated to people living there. I get to my room and when I pulled back the covers the one bed was heavily stained. I thought gross but there's two beds. Well the second one was stained and the pillows too. It was too late to leave so we stayed. Her room was bad but not that bad. I don't believe my room was cleaned/changed after the last stay. Hair was everywhere in the bathroom. Just awful!

With traffic, we managed to get there at 3. Then we arrived, checked into our room, and the AC wasn't working, and there was a large brown spot on the bed. I called three times over the course of two hours. I asked if they could send a repairman, give us an upgrade, or just a different room, to which they responded that there were no other rooms available and that there was nothing they could do. I think the whole situation could have been improved if the staff had given us a realistic timeline for when our room might be ready, or at least offered alternatives to make us more comfortable, such as cold drinks, or letting us wait in a cooler area. Even just checking in on us with updates would have helped so we felt less ignored. I finally walked up to the desk when nobody was sent, and a very kind manager said she would check it out. When the repairman left our room, we were still stuck without an answer, and returned to the front desk. We said, "We're not picky; we just want an air-conditioned room. We're so hot." The woman at the front desk said, "We feel the same up here with no AC." Finally, we were able to get another room and dropped off our stuff, arriving at the concert just in time. The second room had working AC and looked a bit nicer, but it still wasn't clean. There was mold in the bathroom, another stain on the bed, and we caught about ten bugs that night. The lack of cleanliness made it impossible to relax or feel comfortable. It felt like basic sanitation and upkeep were not a priority here. There are employees here who I can tell are really wonderful and want the place to succeed; it's just getting through 4 or 5 other employees who don't care that makes it impossible. My friend and I planned for this concert for ages and almost missed the beginning after asking for the basics, and then "upgraded" to a room that was less than acceptable. Overall, a very disappointing experience. I would very much like to be refunded for my stay, at the least.

The actual convention room for the dance competition is also beautiful and well maintained. The reason for the three star review is because I had to balance out the entrance area with the actual hotel rooms. The hotel rooms are slightly dated and in desperate need of maintenance. There are stains on the ceiling, on the walls, missing blinds, no vent in the bathroom, the toilet is super tall, and there are bleach spots and marks on the ceilings, walls and floor of the hallway. The hallway has a musty, moldy smell as many other Yelpers have pointed out. The room also has a musty smell however we are using the dehumidifier that was already in the room, in addition to plug-ins, deodorizing spray, and Lysol spray. Overall: 5/5 on the entrance/atrium/convention rooms 1.5/5 on the hotel rooms
