The 9 Most Beautiful Boutique Hotels to Book in Massachusetts

A former Federal Reserve Bank situated in the heart of the Boston Financial District, the Langham property is a landmark Renaissance revival-style building of the 1920s. The building was converted into a luxury hotel in 1981 yet retains an admirable balance between historic, old-world charm and modern sophistication. Historical exhibits celebrating the building’s former purpose are displayed throughout the elegant property, including photographs, paintings and and two works by legendary artist NC Wyeth, which were commissioned by the Federal Reserve.

Kemble Inn is a 125-year-old Gilded-Age mansion located in the heart of the Berkshires in Lenox, the quintessential New England town. Tradition meets the 21st century inside, as authentic architecture is sensitively balanced with contemporary interior design and large-scale modern artworks. With a views-for-miles terrace outside and each room a spectacle of sophistication and luxury, Kemble Inn exudes elegance from every corner.

Porches Inn is a unique converted row of late 19th-century houses just a stone’s throw from one of America’s largest contemporary art museums, the MASS MoCA. The chic guest rooms at this Massachusetts inn feature color-block decor enlivened by injections of retro design. Naturally, being but a stone’s throw from the visionary gallery, Porches has collaborated with MASS MoCA to establish an artist-in-residence program, and features installations by Nina Katchadourian (2008) and Mike Glier (2004) on the premises.
