The Boston Harbor Hotel Prepares To Unveil Boston’s Most Expensive And Luxurious Presidential Suite

We are just a few weeks away from the unveiling of Boston’s most expensive and luxurious presidential suite, which will be found at the Boston Harbor Hotel. The waterfront hotel is preparing to reveal its ultra luxe 3,800 square-foot suite located inside the rotunda. When it opens in mid- to late June, the spacious suite will be the most expensive presidential suite in Boston – setting you back a cool $10,000 per night.

Here’s a sneak peek inside this private residential suite that will be located just above the hotel’s archway (often referred to as the Gateway to the City). Overlooking Boston’s waterfront, the new four-bedroom, Carrera marble bath suite will offer some of the best living space the city has to offer, along with a 1,000 square foot terrace overlooking the harbor. There is a stone-inlaid foyer that leads guests into the suite where they are greeted with floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic harbor views. One of the most impressive features is the dramatically high 20-foot glass-domed ceiling offering exclusive views of the archway’s unique architectural design, adorned with a striking crystal chandelier. The suite, which was designed by Smith Firestone Associates, a luxury interior design firm with offices in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and New York City, also features a state-of-the-art media room, spacious living area, dining room, modern kitchen, and did we mention the private elevator?

We caught up recently with Boston Harbor Hotel‘s General Manager Stephen Johnston to discuss if Boston was ready for a suite of this magnitude and what he foresees for Boston’s luxury market.

Tell us about the presidential suite and what makes it so unique to the Boston market.

The presidential suite is going to be complete in about three weeks. We are converting a public function space on the ninth floor into the suite. It will have a magnificent balcony overlooking the ocean that is 1,000 square feet. There are sound and heating on the balcony as well. The fact that it is ocean facing is unique and the suite has a private, exclusive, dedicated elevator designed for just for guests. Some guests like to be prominent while others prefer to be more discrete, so we are able to accommodate both.

Who are you targeting as a client?

We have a range of different clients. Some travel for business and others leisure. We have a lot of Middle Eastern families who like to take a large number of rooms. They come for leisure to shop, while others come for our great doctors and medical visits. It’s a niche market for the city. We also have a lot of high net worth individuals with a celebrity status from America, Asia and Europe.
