In with the New out with the Old....
After reading reviews me and my girlfriends were beyond hesitant about staying here. Especially it being our first time in the city, but the minute I heard their lounge was designed after the wizard of oz i was set. But then on my plane over I was reading the reviews - vomit carpets, failing elevators, imcompetent staff, poor service.... I don't know where they stayed but this wasn't the hotel experience I encountered. 
Boston has always bored me. Rich in american history blah blah blah.... but the hip and chic Revere is what this city needs. The lobby is state of the art and beautiful - though I got more of a gotham city feel than a Boston feel - I was impressed. The staff is all young - attractive - and knowledgable. Whenever I go to a hotel be it the Inn of the Anazi or the Ritz I find a point of contact and keep them the entire time - at the Revere that was CJ and Charlotte. I had some issues checking in and gettign information on my first night - the kid seemed like he was a deer in the headlights, couldn't find my reservation - and everytime I hit 0 the kid transferred me immediately each time without listening to me- but the next afternoon there was a new staff and they were on top of their stuff, friendly, professional - plus i love beautiful people. 
The concierge Richard might be my new best friend and I'd like to take him home with me. Found us a swanky place to go out dancing, a fine restaurant (Grill 23) for dinner - and pointed us in the right direction for lobster omlettes. The rustic kitchen is so so I'd advise eating elsewhere during your stay - Boston offers a plethora of fine dining that the hotel just doesnt offer yet. 
The Emerald Lounge was almost a dissapointment - the bouncers were rude and almost didn't let one of my friends in until I stated we were hotel staff (Really? this isnt NYC or Paris there is not a vip clique nightlife in Boston) but the drinks were spectacular and overpriced and the bartenders gorgeous and flirty. 
The pool needs to be redone and they need a spa... NEED. The carpets didn't smell like vomit, the elevators worked fine, and the staff (after the first night) was spectacular. Thank you Richard CJ Kylee and Charlotte in particular for making me and my girlfriends stay worth while. If I ever return to Boston this is where I or ANYONE should stay.
