Boston
At a glance
At 154 Berkeley Street in Boston's Back Bay, Hotel AKA Back Bay combines historic character with a contemporary hotel setting. The property occupies a building with a connection to the former Boston Police Department Headquarters, while its current design pairs timeless architecture with refined, modern interiors. The setting places the hotel near Newbury Street, the Prudential Center, and Boston's education and business districts.
Guestrooms and suites have been redesigned with an understated style that balances warm, residential touches and sleek contemporary details. The accommodation is intended as a calm retreat within an active urban neighborhood, with modern comfort and a polished, restrained atmosphere. The range of guestrooms and suites gives the property appeal for both shorter city stays and visits that benefit from a more residential feel.
Shared spaces are designed for both relaxation and connection. The a.lounge+library provides an inviting setting for conversation, informal work, or time away from the guestroom. Its library-inspired character adds a quieter counterpoint to the hotel's more social areas. A Technogym fitness center provides a dedicated space for exercise during a stay.
The Berkeley is the hotel's dining venue, offering French-inspired cuisine in an indoor/outdoor bistro setting. The restaurant adds a more formal food and drink option within the property while retaining the approachable character associated with a neighborhood bistro. Its dining room and outdoor component make it suitable for a meal, a gathering, or a pause between activities in Back Bay.
Hotel AKA Back Bay also accommodates corporate meetings, celebrations, and social events. The combination of event facilities, a lounge-library, dining, and guest accommodation makes the property suited to visitors looking for a design-conscious base with on-site amenities. Its location supports access to shopping, landmarks, education, and business destinations without taking the hotel away from the distinctive architectural character of Berkeley Street.
