The Ever-Evolving Legacy Of The Copley Square Hotel.

Experience the enduring legend of the Copley Square Hotel - a local landmark that initially opened to acclaim on July 4, 1891, as the first hotel to appear in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood. Designed and built by architect Fred Pope, this handsome, seven-story structure boasted a unique presence among the neighboring buildings, with its solid foundation and prominent grand entrance.

The Proprietors F.S. Risteen & Co. emphasized the comfort and convenience of the new upscale guesthouse, which provided patrons with 300 fully-accommodated spacious rooms - both single and en-suite - with private parlors and bath. The stylish and sophisticated interior provided old-world charm and a distinctly European feel, while offering all of the most modern amenities available at the time.

Notable Guests Have Included

  • William McKinley. U.S. President.
  • Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Duke Ellington.
  • Babe Ruth. Baseball legend.

A Storied History For The Copley Square Hotel. An Enduring Landmark.

Experience the ever-present legacy of this notable landmark. On January 24, 2008, the Copley Square Boston, MA hotel closed for an $18-million property-wide renovation, re-emerging later that year as a four-star boutique property. The extensive project included thorough remodeling of all public spaces and guest rooms.
Yet perhaps most striking of the recent enhancements is the new, high-touch guest-service philosophy - "Intuitively Yours" - which emphasizes a uniquely personal approach for every guest.
