Super cool concept and great place for a team event. Was essentially a pool hall but with ping…read morepong. Tons of ping pong tables and balls that they come clean up.

We ended up in Boston randomly and were looking for a place to hangout that would be fun for adults…read moreand a tween. Loved all the games on the tables to play while waiting for our ping pong table to be ready. We ordered drinks at the bar and I loved my Curious George! So good! We got some snacks at the ping pong table and they were good too. The fries were cooked perfectly but the pepper ketchup wasn't my favorite. We ended up ordering 2 fries so I must not have minded the ketchup too much. We got the hop pop chicken tenders and found them to be ok. They were a bit overcooked, so they probably would be better less crisped. The place is huge! The employees were continually walking around scooping up all the ping pong palls and making sure everyone was taken care of. I love the net tool they had for collecting the balls. My niece loved the ping pong ball bath. She jumped in it about a dozen times. I wish we had something like this near me, it was great family fun and could turn into adult fun in the evening with lots of amazing drinks.

There were several different games to play while competing with the people in your lane and comfy seating to rest and socialize in when it wasn't your turn. One of the highlights for me was the food. The buffalo chicken sliders were SO good. They had perfectly cooked and tender chicken meat paired with delicious sauces. It was by far the most popular item we got and lots of people went back for seconds. I'm personally not the biggest fan of darts, but it was also an enjoyable experience to just chat while watching the ongoing games and trying the food.

I can't recommend The College Club of Boston enough. It's a beautiful victorian style building. Old…read morefashioned, but truly iconic. I was staying for 2 nights, my first time in the city. I was very unsure which area to stay in, but I'm so happy I chose CCB because the location is absolutely perfect. Back Bay is very nice and safe. You even have a wonderful park just outside the doorstep to walk around, and the lovely Boston Commons only two blocks away. Check-in/out was one of the most seamless experiences I've had with hotels/airbnbs. I didn't have to check in with anyone, and I received the door code a few days before. They have a lovely dining room for guests with homemade cookies, fruit, coffee and tea. Unfortunately I didn't take advantage of the breakfast, but I'm sure it's great too. CCB is really the perfect mix of a hotel and bed/breakfast. I was unsure about doing the solo room with a shared bathroom, but other than having to wait for the other guest to finish his shower so I could take an urgent bio break, it was no issue at all and I would hands down do it again. I'm pretty sure the other floors have a bathroom if you absolutely need it though. For the location, price, comfort, and amenities, College Club of Boston is a no brainer. I got the please to quickly meet the GM on my way out, and she is super sweet. I even left my airpods in the room, and without hesitation they are shipping them back to me. 5 starts forsure.

The venue itself was breathtakingly beautiful, clean, and presentable. We requested a charcuterie board, champagne, and fruit platter, and it was stunningly displayed and high quality.

I stay in hotels the majority of the year for work. This hotel was one that I will remember…read more First, yes - the rooms are small, but....they do small well. The rooms are uniquely decorated and offer some great views. My room overlooked the water. So, cool view. Amenity-wise, I usually put significant weight of my hotel opinions based on the fitness center, concierge lounge, and restaurants. While this location didn't have a concierge lounge, it did have a really good restaurant. I had some amazing breakfast. Fitness-center-wise, they had enough options and equipment to offer a good full body workout for a hotel. Overall, I was happy with the property and will look to stay at the same place during future visits.

Not even worth the free credit.

She made the night happen seamlessly. East meets west owns the facility and does the catering. Usually at big events with lots of people to feed, the dinner ends up kind of blah. Not this evening. From the tasting dinner to the wedding food, it was beautifully served and absolutely delish! We had so many guests call us afterwards to tell us how much they enjoyed the dinner. The staff at the Exchange was gracious, friendly and efficiently professional. I can't think of one criticism or recommendation. The whole event was beautiful and perfect. Get Alyson on your team and you'll thank your lucky stars!

Definitely a must to experience panoramic views of Boston.

They have such an amazing mission, and I highly recommend people look into this nonprofit to learn more on how to support! This review is for their Boston store--an open, spacious thrift and book store. They have a great selection, from affordable everyday pieces to higher-end clothing (for both women and men), plus old-timey knickknacks, home goods, shoes, costume jewelry, toys, and new packaged gifts. There's so much to rummage through, and it doesn't have that musty thrift store feel--it's very well kept. We bought a bunch of things: glass cake display I had as a kid (that doubles as a fruit trifle dish), an abstract dress that was basically new (originally over $200, I snagged for $40), a metal dragon bracelet, and more. The staff is fun--they seem like friends with each other, and a few even made me feel like we were becoming friends too, loll. It's a very cool atmosphere and well staffed. If no one's at the register, there's a bell you can ring and they'll be right there. I love this place--it is one of my highlights of the South End area!
