The Best Boutique Hotels (2023)

Why We Like It: The Eliot is a wonderfully old-style boutique hotel right next to The Harvard Club on Boston’s Commonwealth Ave. Built in Neo-Georgian style in 1925, it retains a huge amount of old European style elegance and charm. Rooms: The Eliot has a total of 95 rooms, with 79 suites and 16 guest rooms. Each accommodation is decorated in a plush European style – French toile prints, beautiful fabrics, and stately furnishings. Serta mattresses are topped with down duvets, large goose-down pillows, and thick Anichini cotton throws. The elegant marble bathrooms may be compact, but they are well-appointed with fragrant Essential Elements toiletries and plush monogrammed terry bathrobes. Some bathrooms even feature renovated walk-in showers for added convenience. Modern facilities across the board include minibars, flat-screen TVs, free HBO and HD channels, pay-per-view movies, and kids’ programming like Disney Channel on demand, high-speed Wi-Fi, iHome clock radios, and noise-insulated windows. Measuring between 200 to 250 square feet, their entry-level Deluxe Guestrooms are slightly smaller than the average standard room in the city. However, they are cozy and nicely presented, furnished with either a single queen bed or two double beds. The one-bedroom suites at the Eliot Boston are generously sized, ranging from 420 to 480 square feet. These suites feature a bedroom with a queen, king, or two double beds, as well as a separate living room with an additional flat-screen TV and a queen-size sleeper sofa. The living area can be closed off with French doors making them useful for families or groups. More useful again for groups are their Two-Bedroom Suites. These accommodations span 650 square feet with two en-suite rooms and a large living space. Prices & Availability: Enter your dates and check prices at Expedia.com here.

Why We Like It: The 4-Star Morgan Hotel offers surprisingly good value accommodation in the heart of Temple Bar, Dublin’s heavily touristed entertainment quarter. It’s a sleek, modern place with spacious rooms, excellent food and drink, and though this part of the city can get quite wild at night The Morgan somehow keeps it calm and classy. With 168 rooms, The Morgan may be on the large side for a boutique hotel but the atmosphere is warm and personable. Rooms: Their rooms are spacious, airy, and modern. They are the rooms of a confident luxury hotel though they don’t have much in the way of radical design flair. Their junior suites are their most impressive, and most spacious, and have a romantic in-room soaking tub. All the rooms come with mod-cons such as Nespresso machines, minibars, trays of snacks, air-con, and safes, as standard. The bathrooms have top-of-the-range showers, and The White Company from London supplies all the toiletries. The Morgan is, as mentioned above, in a very lively part of town but the soundproofing in the rooms does an impressive job. Check out all your room options, and check prices here at Booking.com. Food, Drink & Facilities: The Morgan overlooks one of the busiest streets in Temple Bar – Fleet Street – so their ’10 Fleet Street Restaurant & Bar’ can be quite busy. Despite the location, it’s not a place for drunken revelry though – most people are there for food and drink and conversation and will tend to move on to more lively spots as the evening wears on. There’s a lovely outdoor courtyard at The Morgan too with seating for drinking and dining al fresco. The menu isn’t groundbreaking – they serve Irish and International classics mostly – but the quality is excellent, and they have an extensive cocktail and wine menu. In terms of facilities at The Morgan, they have meeting facilities and there is secure parking (independent from the hotel) across the road. There is no gym or spa here though but guests are free to use the Westwood Gym on Aston Quay, right around the corner which also has sauna and steam rooms. READ MORE

Why We Like It: The Heywood is a small, stylish, boutique hotel hidden away in the hip Eastside of Austin. The house, an original Craftsman bungalow, dates back to 1925 and has been thoughtfully restored and modernized. With just seven rooms it is cozy and personable, and the staff helpful and friendly. With it being so small, there is a cozy, friendly vibe. Though, for the same reason, there is no breakfast or, beyond snacks, any other meals provided. Rooms: The seven bespoke rooms are comfortable and stylish. They differ in some features – some have bathtubs, some have outside space – balcony or patio for example but everything is quality here, across the board, from the original longleaf pinewood floors to handmade beds and Stearns & Foster luxury mattresses. Mod-cons include a minifridge and minibar, smart, cable TV, white noise machines, Squeezebox Internet jukeboxes with free streaming, iPod/iPhone docks, and ‘digital concierge’ tablets to help guide guests around the local area. Check out your room choices by following the prices & availability link below. Prices & Availability: Enter your dates and check prices at Expedia.com here. Food and Facilities: There is no restaurant onsite and breakfast is not provided, though you have some snacks in your minibar, and there’s a coffee and tea station in the common area. Upon check-in, guests are offered a box of locally hand-crafted chocolates and complimentary beers from a local craft brewer. The Heywood offers free bicycles and it can organize various tour packages such as bicycle brewery tours, sunset lake paddles, food experiences, and arts & crafts making excursions. In-room massage and salon services are also available. Location: The Heywood is in East Cesar Chavez, East Austin, a newly trendy neighborhood with a hip, independent vibe. You’ll find many food outlets, cafes, bars, and interesting shops within walking distance of the hotel. Downtown Austin is about a mile away.

I would absolutely book the Heywood again…..” “Loved the complete setup of the hotel. I especially enjoyed the outside patio area. Additionally, READ MORE

Why We Like It: The Wilder is a cozy boutique hotel in a classic Georgian-era redbrick that has elegance and charm. It is also on a beautifully peaceful, tree-lined street that feels almost suburban but is yet just a short walk from Dublin city center. Rooms: There are just 42 rooms and suites in total, all of which are comfortable and stylish, though their entry-level rooms are not spacious by any means. They all are though beautifully presented, and display plenty of historical character. Period fixtures abound, including some lovely old fireplaces, alongside more contemporary art pieces and luxury hotel mod-cons. Check out all your room options, and check prices here at Booking.com. Food, Drink & Facilities: Their fine breakfasts are served in the Garden Room, which also if the weather allows, has outdoor seating in the garden. A la carte options include the full Irish, buttermilk pancakes, and a range of egg dishes, alongside a buffet of fresh homemade breads, muffins, granola, juices, yogurts, and fresh fruits. They also serve small dishes throughout the day (until 10pm) at The Wilder – sandwiches, soups and charcuterie plates, plus a range of drinks in the Gin & Tea Rooms. Only guests have access to these spaces so the atmosphere is generally familiar and warm. Not surprisingly due to its size, the hotel doesn’t have much in the way of facilities – no gym or spa for example, though they do have on-site parking. Reception is open 24 hours and the staff are helpful and friendly. Location: The Wilder is on Adelaide Road, near the Grand Canal and about a ten-minute, pleasant, walk to Grafton Street, or a couple of minutes on the LUAS tram system which has a stop nearby. Two of Dublin’s nicest parks, Iveagh Gardens and St Stephen’s Green, are also nearby, as are the many lively bars of Camden Street and Harcourt Street. Some Guest Reviews: “Liked · Absolutely fantastic staff at the place from the folks working the front desk to the bar. Cian, Rocio, Becca and co, we had a great and fun time. Amenities provided were on point, rooms were clean and divine. There was READ MORE

Why We Like It: Hotel Clermont, in the heart of Atlanta’s trendy Poncey-Highland neighborhood, is a celebration of the city’s eclectic history. The hotel has a storied past, having once been a somewhat disreputable 1920s-era hot spot before it fell into disrepair. In recent years, it has been lovingly restored to its former glory, with both vintage-inspired decor and amenities that are thoroughly modern. Playful design details abound – like the goldfish bowl in the lobby and the neon pink sign on the rooftop bar that reads, “We are not a hotel, we are a refuge.” Rooms: Hotel Clermont’s 94 rooms are divided into several categories. Double rooms are cozy, yet stylishly appointed with a queen bed and whimsical touches like retro rotary phones. The Deluxe Double rooms are outfitted with two queen beds. Their King rooms then are a step ahead in size and with king beds instead of queen. Their top-of-the-range is the Clermont Suite, the hotel’s largest accommodation, with separate living and sleeping areas, a king bed, and a large balcony with sweeping views of Atlanta. Most economical, if you’re with a group are the bunk rooms which can sleep up to four on bunk beds. Check out all your room options here at Expedia.com Food, Drink & Facilities: Hotel Clermont has several dining and drinking options on-site. Tiny Lou’s is a chic French-American brasserie that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with dishes like lobster eggs Benedict, steak frites, and a rotating selection of house-made charcuterie. The restaurant’s intimate bar is a great spot for a pre-dinner cocktail or nightcap. For a more casual vibe, head to the Lobby Bar, which serves up creative cocktails and light bites. And, of course, there’s the rooftop bar, which is a destination in and of itself. It boasts stunning views of the Atlanta skyline, a pool, and an outdoor fireplace. Hotel Clermont also has a fitness center and a bike rental program. Location: Located on Ponce de Leon Avenue, one of Atlanta’s main thoroughfares, Hotel Clermont is surrounded by some of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Poncey-Highland is known for its indie shops, restaurants, and galleries, and it’s just a READ MORE

Why We Like It: In the vibrant South Congress neighborhood of Austin, Texas, Hotel Saint Cecilia is a luxury boutique hotel very much in tune with the city’s bohemian side. Its eclectic decor, vintage furnishings, and laid-back vibe make it a favorite among passing creatives, artists, and musicians. It occupies a beautifully renovated 1880s Victorian mansion, and with it having a mere 14 guest rooms, the atmosphere is personable and intimate. Rooms: Hotel Saint Cecilia’s guest rooms are distinctively, beautifully, decorated and you can expect antique rugs, Victorian and other vintage furniture, and original artwork.  All also feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows. There are five suites, three studios, and six cozy poolside bungalows.

It has a cozy indoor seating area, an outdoor patio overlooking the hotel’s pool, and a poolside bar.

Why We Like It: Only open since 2018 the Angad is a bright and bold new addition to the hotel scene in St. Louis, Missouri. It has, as the name suggests, a strong emphasis on art and is a veritable showcase for local talent. Throughout the building, you can admire curated sculpture pieces, paintings, video art, and photographs from local artists, most of which are also available to buy. Color is also a strong theme at Angad with most of its 146 rooms having an exact equivalent in a different color. On the understanding that color affects mood, you can choose between green for rejuvenation, yellow for curiosity, red for empowerment, and blue for freedom. Its location right in the heart of St. Louis’ Grand Center Arts District is fitting and here you are within walking distance of some of the city’s best restaurants, cafes, bars, theaters, and galleries. Rooms: All 146 rooms have a different single color scheme – red, blue, green, and yellow. You don’t get to choose your room before booking, but only after contacting the hotel once you get the confirmation e-mail or at your check-in. The rooms range from entry-level singles to 410 square feet rooms with two queen size beds to sleep four, 505 square feet suites which have a double bedroom, a separate lounge area, and a kitchenette, and then their top-of-the-range, 1,400 square feet, Double King Suites which have two double bedrooms with king size beds, and a lounge area. Check out all the details at Booking.com here. Be prepared for some low-level shock on getting acquainted with your room for the first time: except for the floors they are almost entirely monochrome. The idea is that such an immersion in a specific color can encourage certain moods. In this case that is either red for empowerment, blue for freedom, yellow for curiosity, or green for rejuvenation. Prices & Availability: Enter your dates and check prices at Booking.com here. Food & Facilities: There are two food venues onsite the most prominent being the Commonwealth Restaurant which does a fresh take on modern European cuisine with a seasonal menu and locally sourced ingredients.

Why We Like It: The Burgess Hotel is Atlanta’s upscale Buckhead neighborhood’s only independent boutique hotel. It has a pleasantly refined atmosphere and, by all accounts, one of the city’s very best restaurants. It also has a bold, modern, international feel, with more than a touch of Asia – from its Hong Kong origin owners – the large dragon sculpture in the lobby for example, along with many oriental prints on the walls. Rooms: Your choices are as simple as it gets at the Burgess – you have either a room with a king bed or a room with two queen beds. All are spacious, clean, and modern, they are minimalist in design but with bold bursts of color here and there. Nothing out of the ordinary for a luxury hotel is here but they are unmistakably chic and extremely comfortable. Check out all your room options here at Booking.com. Food, Drink & Facilities: The Burgess’ signature restaurant Fia, which creates wood-fired Western Mediterranean fare, is one of Atlanta’s most highly rated restaurants, while Mr. B, the hotel’s cozy library lounge, creates unique, highly inventive craft cocktails. The hotel’s pool sits in a lovely, green lush courtyard. It has its own outdoor bar and is a relaxing oasis for many guests when the weather is kind. The hotel’s state-of-the-art fitness center is a step above the vast majority of hotel gyms. Equipment includes Peloton bikes and Lateral X Ellipticals with adjustable 3D motion. Location: The Burgess is in Buckhead, near the PATH400 trail and surrounded by some of Atlanta’s swankiest businesses and most impressive-looking homes. Hal’s the Steakhouse, a veritable Atlanta institution, is nearby and some of the city’s best shopping can be found at Phipps Plaza and the Shops, Buckhead Atlanta. The hotel offers a complimentary transportation service for all guests within a two-mile radius. Some Guest Reviews: “We absolutely LOVE this property and the STAFF all around was AMAZING. Mark Hull was an incredible host/ bartender and a fantastic individual all around. Jacob at the front desk was a gem, as well as his colleague and the manager. A service on all levels. I wish I knew everyone’s name READ MORE

Why We Like It: The Bowery’s 17 floors tower over New York’s buzzy East Village allowing its rooms some of the very best views around. The hotel has a buzz all of its own too and is something of an A-list hangout. Photos are strictly prohibited in the lobby bar for example and its upper level suites are not available to be booked online, just to give you an idea. It’s not cheap by any means, and some guests do complain about the size of the rooms, but The Bowery has such an uber-cool reputation that it doesn’t really need to care. The location is very convenient: you’re a short walk away from East Village, Greenwich Village, Chinatown, Little Italy, Nolita, SoHo, NoHo, and the Lower East Side. Rooms: The Bowery has 110 rooms and 25 suites, with all but one type of suite – the 400 square feet studio suite – being unavailable to book online. Check out all your room options here at Booking.com. The rooms range in size from 250 to 350 square feet and are certainly comfortable, if not very decorative. They have something of a vintage feel too, and lots of dark woods combined with brightly colored upholstery and linens. The marble bathrooms are particularly vintage in style. Entry-level rooms have walk-in rainfall showers while higher up the chain you will also find bathtubs. All are supplied with luxury C.O. Bigelow or Lingua Franca bath amenities and terry robes. The views, as mentioned are a real highlight, from pretty much any floor. The floor-to-ceiling, warehouse-style windows can also take much of the credit. Prices & Availability: Enter your dates and check prices at Booking.com here. Food & Facilities: The Bowery’s signature restaurant is Gemma – a well-known celebrity hangout. It is a rustic, trattoria-style Italian located on the ground floor. The food is mainly traditional Italian with a seasonal menu and an extensive Italian wine list, but the menu is varied and doesn’t shy away from giant burgers, fries, strip steaks and the like. Its pizzas too are legendary. Guests of the hotel can happily order from the menu 24 hours via room service. Breakfast, READ MORE

Why We Like It: Home to perhaps Denver’s coolest bar, Death & Co, The Ramble is an uber-stylish, 4-star boutique hotel in RiNo (River North) Arts District. The interiors are inspired by 17th-century Paris it is said, but it is also unmistakably hip and modern. It has an unmistakable New York vibe too. Their bar can take some of the blame. It was the highly regarded Death & Co Cocktail Bar’s first branch outside Manhattan. Rooms: The hotel’s 50 rooms vary in size, though none are really large it must be said, and the entry-level rooms are quite small. They are though lavishly dressed with antique Persian rugs, art deco chandeliers, hand-crafted furniture, quality linens and super comfortable beds. Mod cons include an iPad with a Bluetooth gramophone speaker, air-con, mini-bar, cable TV and insulated walls. Prices & Availability: Enter your dates and check prices at Expedia.com here. Food and Facilities: Death & Co’s palace-like lobby bar and restaurant, open til 1:30 am is the centerpiece at The Ramble, but they also have a nice outdoor dining space, The Garden, which closes a few hours earlier. The food and drink are superb in both, and Death & Co particularly has a strong following among fashionable locals. It is generally lively and fun. Attached to the hotel is the almost as lovely Vauxhall Theater, which hosts a great range of events – plays, film screenings, concerts etc. The Ramble also has a small, functional fitness center open around the clock. Location: The hotel is bang in the middle of Denver’s new coolest neighborhood, RiNo, with some of the city’s best bars and restaurants minutes away. Right next door in fact is Dana Rodriguez’s highly regarded Supa Mega Bien. Denver’s downtown, and of course LoDo (Lower downtown), are less than a mile away. Some Guest Reviews: “The rooms are beautifully designed – the bed extremely comfy! We had a corner room which was great! The cocktail bar is dangerously good 😊 And the neighborhood very walkable- we will be back!…..” “The Ramble Hotel is truly one of those hidden gems. From its beautiful ambiance to the friendly staff it did not disappoint. READ MORE

Why We Like It: The Kimber Modern is another suave boutique hotel in Austin’s vibrant South Congress neighborhood. The design is sleek, colorful, and modern. The hotel has just 9 rooms in total and, with no staff for most of the day (though they are just a phone call away), it can feel more like a very upscale Airbnb than a hotel, though there is a great breakfast and an honor bar where you can socialize with fellow guests. Rooms: The Kimber Modern offers 9 unique guest rooms, each spacious and beautifully decorated in a relatively modern style.
