The view from our room presented an industrial / parking lot area, but rest assured the hip scene is not far.
What I loved:
That Kitchen! The earth-toned glass backsplash literally saves the day. It is awesome to know that a fully equipped kitchen exists here even though we didn't put it to use. There's a full size refrigerator, dishwasher, range top and microwave. It is stocked with cookware, dishware and utensils so you could easily prepare a meal or heat up leftovers.
The Bathroom - so much room to spread out in this spa inspired space with a rainfall shower head and Phamacopia Natural products. The one thing missing?! Bathrobes! I love when hotels give them, and most mornings at home I always cozy up in my bathrobe first thing.
Complimentary Breakfast Bar - That egg sandwich was so key and took the standard breakfast buffet up a notch in my book. I also treated myself to a bowl of Lucky Charms from the cereal bar. Bob had scrambled eggs, bacon + a waffle.
Additional Features (we didn't have enough time to take advantage of): indoor pool, fitness center, a grill on the patio + bikes to borrow. If we didn't have a somewhere to be the next morning I would have loved to hit up the pool and gym.
I'm now thinking more staycations are in order. Boston has so much to explore and I really enjoy being in-the-know about all the hotels be them new or old and what they have to offer. Thanks so much to element by Westin for the inspiring and restful Seaport staycation!
The rooms are sharp + spacious. Our one bedroom suite was sparse on décor with just a few pieces of abstract wall art and muted gray tones throughout.

Our stay was complimentary, all opinions are my own

Ooh I didn't realize Element was an extended stay, nor did I realize it was a Westin. Loving that kitchen! And I love your shirt, too :)

Scout and I were able to stay at Aloft (across the driveway) last summer and we also got a tour of Element during our visit, which I loved. As a frequent business traveler, I know what a luxury it is to have a full kitchen and a couch!
ReplyDeleteI need to do more staycations :) I'm starting to research where we can stay for NYE, but I also want a room with a kitchen so we can make some apps. Definitely looking into this!
ReplyDeletethat looks so fun!! we have done a few staycations in boston lately and it's so fun to play tourist for a bit. love that that hotel has a grill area to use, too!
