    Great memories!

    rating30 Apr 2026

    Staying at AKA Back Bay made our time in Boston very enjoyable. The hotel itself, has an interesting history and is located in a very convenient part of the City. The Hotel resturaunt, located on the bottom floor, exceeded our expectations, and we wish we'd discovered it sooner. Phong, our server, treated us to an amazing breakfast, on the day of our departure. We'll be back! akahotels reviews, Owner at Hotel AKA Back Bay, responded to this review Dear HarborViewPlace,Thank you for choosing us and for sharing your experience with us.
