  If your date is open, book immediately!

  5 stars doesn't even seem to do the Bostonian justice. TL;DR: If you're looking for a fantastic venue with an even better value and want to work with best of the best, book the Bostonian immediately!
  
  The Bostonian was the first venue we saw and knew that it was likely to be the one. We knew that we wanted to be in the city, but didn't want a stuffy hotel ballroom. Although it is a hotel, The Bostonian was far from a standard ballroom. We immediately fell in love with the amazing giant windows, incredible staff and the location. We did our due diligence and saw countless other options, but in the end, The Bostonian offered everything we were looking for and more for way less than the competitors. Not to mention, Nicole is a goddess among mortals and I wasn't going to pass on the opportunity to work with her!
  
  Before booking, we had decided to have dinner at North 26 to get a sense of the food. The food was very important to us and while they are different menus, the same head chef handles both their restaurant and events menus. During our dinner they managed to give us a sampling of appetizers from the catering menu, which blew my mind! Everything we tasted, at that dinner and at our official tasting dinner, was incredible. Not a single person at our wedding had a bad thing to say about the food.
  
  While the space and food was key for us, it was the people who really made The Bostonian stand out. Everyone we came in contact with from the door man to the front desk manager to our event manager, Nicole Shapiro, were outstanding! They went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and supported. Nicole answered my countless ridiculous questions - trust me there were a lot of them - quickly and without hesitation. If she ever once thought I was insane, she certainly didn't show it! She even helped us unload the uHaul of supplies we dropped off before the wedding and assemble our welcome bags.
  
  As an event planner myself, I knew that the hardest part of my wedding was going to be letting myself enjoy the day and not focusing on running the event. With Nicole at the helm, I didn't worry for a single second that day or the two years we worked together leading up to it. She is a DREAM to work with and I can't recommend her enough!
  
  If we were to do it all over again, we would 100% book the Bostonian again!
  
  ps. You can see the fireworks from the balconies on New Year's Eve. Just saying ;)

  Incredible

  If you want to feel like King and Queen on your wedding day then you should have The Bostonian to be your venue. Not only this place is affordable, their packages are incredible and its in a great location but their service and attention that you will get throughout your planning, during the wedding and even the next day is INCREDIBLE.
  When I say that my wedding went without a glitch I mean it. It's been over a month and we still can't believe how perfect everything went.
  
  We had Nicole as our event coordinator, she was there with us all the way, and understood exactly what we were looking for. Nicole was on top of everything
  OH! and the food?? also INCREDIBLE
  Stop thinking about it and reach out to them and have your perfect big day at the Bostonian

  If you plan on getting married in Boston you HAVE to check out the Bostonian. The venue is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff are AMAZING! Rachel pulled our wedding together PERFECTLY.

  Gorgeous venue, amazing staff, perfect day!

  When looking at venues, my husband and I knew we wanted something in downtown Boston, but didn't have a major budget. When we found the Bostonian, the choice was clear. The venue is a lovely glass atrium, in an amazing location right next to Faneuil Hall. The best part is the amazing package deal at a variety of price points depending on your budget and each package is fully customizable. Nicole Shapiro was so helpful in coordinating everything and making us feel secure in our decisions and plan for day-of; we didn't even need to hire a coordinator because she handled everything from helping us select the menu to telling us when it was time to cut the cake. She's also a delight to work with and superstar at her job -- even while she was planning her own wedding! When it came to day of, the entire staff was super attentive and all of the guests raved about how caring everyone was. When I walked in to the cocktail hour, one staff member immediately offered me some of the passed hors d'oeuvres and made sure to check in on me and offer more food! The food was AWESOME and they were very flexible when it came to the menu, so I was able to tailor the menu and even add a completely custom salmon option. The package is unbeatable - you'll have a place to get ready with your ladies (with salon chairs and breakfast and mimosas!), and all of the tiny details are taken care of -- no need to worry about insane rental upgrades and Nicole handled working with all of our vendors to make sure everything ran smoothly. I could not be more thrilled with how our special day worked out and I would absolutely choose the Bostonian if I had to do it all over again. Your day will be amazing here and it won't break the bank to have an absolutely stunning wedding!

  The perfect place for our wedding!

  As soon as we saw the Bostonian, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. My husband and I wanted a city wedding with skyline views. The Bostonian has such a prime location, right across from Faneuil Hall. You can walk to so many beautiful places for photos from here. I truly don’t think you can beat the location. The Seasons Ballroom has a unique vantage point of the city. You get skyline views without being 50+ stories high. Right out the window is Faneuil Hall & Quincy Marketplace, the clock tower, and some other beauties! We had our ceremony and reception in the ballroom and the setting couldn’t have bene more dreamy.
  
  The Seasons Ballroom has modern and clean feel, perfect for any decor you want to add. Most hotel ballrooms have bold and busy rugs, dated light fixtures, and feel overly stuffy, but this space is so modern and fresh. We worked closely with Nicole (and Rachel was great too, who we talked to a few times!) and she guided us through the whole process. The pricing was very fair, especially for a Boston wedding. Nicole worked with us on ironing out our day of schedule, made vendor recommendations, and was very responsive. The day of our wedding, she coordinated everything. I didn’t have to worry about talking to any vendors or worrying about anything at all. She handled everything. The staff at the Bostonian, especially Nelson, the head waiter was great. He took care of our sweetheart table and our parents tables and was so warm, friendly, and provided such a high level of service.
  
  The food was wonderful. The options at the Bostonian were so hard to choose between since they have such a generous menu. People complimented the food and desert (we had the North End desert platter which was DELICIOUS!).
  
  I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day. Thank you to Nicole & the Bostonian for the big part you played in our day! :)

  Amazing Venue and Coordinator

  I could not recommend The Bostonian or Nicole enough to other couples. The location was simply perfect and they really made the entire experience feel special and enjoyable. Nicole was so responsive and amazing, it was such a comfort to have her handling everything and doing an amazing job. Compared to other venues we initially looked at, the Bostonian seemed to go above and beyond to include everything that we may need. Can't wait to visit again!

  Beautiful venue and wonderful planner!

  We are so happy that we chose the Bostonian for our wedding! We had both the ceremony and the reception there, and Nicole was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process. She was incredibly responsive to questions and helped us with all the planning. The location is perfect, and allowed us to take really great photos on the Greenway and in Fanueil Hall prior to the wedding, all within an easy walk. The Seasons Ballroom is a beautiful glassed-in space (not your typical hotel ballroom at all, which we were thrilled to find!). The food was delicious, people were complementing us on the appetizers and dinner the whole evening. Nicole dealt with all the little details for us on the wedding day, the service staff provided wonderful service, and overall we were just thrilled with how everything came together. We would highly recommend the Bostonian to anyone else looking for a beautiful wedding venue in Boston!

  Hi Heather-
  
  Thank you so much for the 5-star review! I loved getting to know you and Owen over the year and I had so much fun working together on creating your special day.
  
  Hope to see you at the Hotel soon!

  I can't thank The Bostonian staff enough for the wedding of my dreams. I was convinced I had a venue picked out but my mom forced me to look at another for comparison. I picked the Bostonian because it was closest to my office, so easy to go tour but the second I met the staff and saw the space I fell in love - not to mention how reasonably priced the packages are compared to anything else in the city. Our whole theme was downtown Boston, and this is as downtown as it gets. I was very anti-hotel ballroom, but The Bostonian's ballroom is anything but traditional, with the floor to mid-ceiling windows and balconies. Plus they included space for the after party and the brunch. The only hiccup we had was staff turnover - my hotel planner left about 3 weeks before the wedding. I was petrified at first, as we had many non-traditional elements that we had very carefully choreographed with her over the past 10 months - our ceremony was in the ballroom, we were the largest wedding they had ever done (plus had a 7 piece band), we had the cocktail hour outside in the courtyard, we had a non-traditional "cheese" cake that the staff had to put together and decorate, some very specific food allergies, and more. Steven, the sales manager, went out of his way to make my mom and I certain that the transition would be fine, and generously comped some upcharges to make up for the last minute stress. A whole team seamlessly covered for my planner's absence, and Nicole went above and beyond to understand the plan and quickly answer my questions and make me comfortable once she took over - she is the best! Our guests told us it was the best food they ever had at a wedding; it's now 2.5 months later and people are still talking about what they ate. There were never lines at the bar, the servers were outstanding, and all of our small touches were setup perfectly - they even had champagne and our leftover dinners in our room after the after-party. I highly recommend The Bostonian.

  Our wedding reception at the Bostonian was so incredibly wonderful and the staff was simply the best! All I can do is sing their praising, especially Nicole, the catering sales manager that we worked closely with leading up to our wedding and on the day of the reception. Every time we met with the Bostonian, they treated us like family and showed genuine interest and passion in making our wedding day perfect. Nicole would respond to all of my questions and requests within a day, if not within an hour. I was planning form halfway across the country and the Bostonian made that seamless and easy. I did not have a wedding planner, but the Bostonian staff made it so easy that I wouldn't have ever thought of needing one. The food was also delicious and the location is absolutely ideal - it felt like we got such a good value for everything. It was truly an exceptional experience having our wedding with the Bostonian and I would whole-heatedly recommend the venue and their staff to any bride!

  Truly a hidden gem in downtown Boston. We wanted a wedding that encapsulated the city we love and the Bostonian hit the nail on the head. Everything was easy and accommodating from the first visit, all the planning, to the day of execution. The weekend of the wedding we were treated like a kind and queen by every hotel employee and our coordinator Ashley was amazing! She helped us every step of the way and allowed us to enjoy the day since we were confident she would execute everything perfectly. Our guests are still telling us about the amazing views, food and service. I would recommend this venue to anyone and every one looking for a Boston wedding venue. Hands down amazing!

  I don't think I could say enough good things about our wedding at the Bostonian! The venue is visually stunning - the backdrop of the statehouse was gorgeous for our ceremony. The food was absolutely delicious as well! The whole staff was so accommodating, but especially the wedding coordinator Lindsay who was absolutely wonderful to work with.
  
  Also, our guests staying at the hotel loved how it was in the center of Boston. And we all went out after the reception - it was very cool to be so close to so many great bars. Everyone had a blast!!

The food was absolutely delicious as well! The whole staff was so accommodating, but especially the wedding coordinator Lindsay who was absolutely wonderful to work with.

  We had a truly wonderful experience with the Millennium for our May 2015 wedding of about 80 guests. The view from the ballroom, the fantastic food, and the downtown location are all amazing and we continue to receive compliments from our guests. One of the things we really liked about the Millennium is that it's a great venue for not-too-big not-too-small weddings: many of the other venues we looked at had ballrooms that were just too big for our size. The Millennium venue offers a great combination of old Boston (without being stuffy) charm and an urban, modern feel. But the best thing by far about our wedding was the SERVICE. Every staff member from the doormen to the catering team was superb. Anne and Lindsey, the wedding coordinators, went far above and beyond (and even that seems like an understatement). For any bride considering the Millennium, rest assured you will be in exceptional hands with Anne and Lindsey. We are so, so thrilled that we held our big day there.

  Our experience with The Millennium Bostonian Hotel was nothing short of amazing.
  Staff: We worked with 2 wedding coordinators during our planning and both were incredible and very experienced in the wedding industry. Our day-of coordinator, Anne Wilkes, did everything to make the day perfect.
  Service: The catering staff for the reception was first class.
  Food: We are still getting compliments on the food! Great variety of appetizer and entree options and they were able to accommodate a few special meals (gluten free, vegan, etc).
  Venue: Can't beat the view from the Seasons Ballroom! Looking over Faneuil hall all lit up at night was the perfect backdrop for our city wedding. The hotel is in a great location for out of town guests to enjoy Boston.
  Hotel Rooms: all recently renovated and very nice.
  
  I highly recommend the Millennium for a great city wedding!

  Eleni and her team were amazing! Eleni came in during the middle of our wedding planning, and exceeded all of our expectations. She was professional and quickly caught up on all of our details. It was clear throughout that she loves her job and was working very hard to make this our dream wedding. She was incredibly responsive and coordinated all of our vendors which took a lot of pressure off of us in the days leading up to the wedding. The hotel and event staff were equally professional, friendly, and efficient. We had an amazing day and can't say enough how much we recommend having your wedding at the Millennium!

  We were so happy to have chosen the Millennium Bostonian Hotel as the location for our wedding reception! We really felt like the entire staff knew who we and our guests were the entire weekend and felt like they were attentive to all of our needs from start to finish. The entire day of our wedding was exactly as we had hoped for as well. The hotel was extremely accommodating by setting aside two rooms for us the day of our wedding; one that was used for me, my mom, and bridesmaids to get ready in the morning before heading off to our ceremony, and another room that we used with our photographers to take a family group shot of 30 people - this was really important to my side of the family!
  
  Additionally, we couldn't have been happier with Eleni Granas, the catering manager/wedding coordinator at the hotel. We only worked with her for a short time, as she was recently hired, but she is really friendly and professional, making it easy to work with her and giving you the confidence that the wedding is going to go extremely well, which it did! I only wish we worked with her longer, as she was wonderful! She made sure to make sure everything was perfect from the time she started with us. She went over all details with us for the day and coordinated with vendors beforehand, ensuring everything was as we wanted. Eleni also checked in periodically with us and the bridal party throughout the actual wedding day to see if there was anything we needed. She is very professional and has a great personality!
  
  In addition, the whole reception was set up beautifully. It was the perfect downtown wedding location, and all of our guests enjoyed the views from the ballroom, which overlooks Faneuil Hall. The space itself was also perfect for our 110 guests; enough space for dining and dancing!

  We are so thrilled that we had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Millennium Bostonian Hotel. Melissa and team provided the exact elegance, service and worry free experience we were looking for. Everything was taken care of exactly as we had asked and they even suggested additional ideas that added to the top rate wedding we had.
  It was very important to tell them our wishes and from that point on, they got it. Stayed on track and delivered. The fact that Boston was the backdrop to our wedding made this the perfect setting. We loved everything about this hotel And everyone there was just so amazing that we felt like we were the only wedding they had ever celebrated. We felt so special.
  Thank you again Melissa and team!

  The best, most unique venue in Boston! I worked with Kim Earnheardt and Michelle Micozzi as wedding coordinators and they were both amazing. Michelle was so patient and kind and on top of everything. She makes a bride calm...a very unique quality. I had trust in everything. The Food and Beverage manager was so accommodating at the wedding, making sure everything was ok. Michelle seemed to be over my shoulder whenever I needed her. It was the truly remarkable and I could not have asked for a better new years eve wedding!! The reservations staff was accommodating to all my out of state guests as well! Thank yOU!

  This venue was absolutely beautiful! They have a ballroom on their top floor with a view of the entire city. I could not have asked for a better place. The catering sales manager, Ashely, was so helpful and professional. I had to plan my wedding from Michigan, and I needed to ask her for help ALOT. She was there whenever I needed her. The food was also fantastic! I got so much good feedback from my guests about how amazing the food was. I was really pleased to hear that. This venue also had good prices compared to many other high end hotels in the city. I LOVED IT!

  We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Millennium Hotel. The wedding ran so smoothly and we had so much fun. Everything was arranged beautifully and exactly how we wanted. The staff all went above and beyond our expectations and we were more than pleased. Personally, I was very happy with the dessert table that I ordered (their Kids at Heart display)- the whoopie pies were way bigger than I expected! Overall, the serving staff and bartenders were so nice, the service was great, the venue was beautiful, our catering sales managers were awesome in dealing with us, and we couldn't have asked for a better night. I was very happy with our experience at the Millennium Hotel.

  My husband and I were recently married here and I honestly do not think it could have been any better from day one !
  
  I worked with Ashley who was hands down one of the most professional, accomodating, responsive, customer service oriented people I have ever worked with. She literally would respond to my emails within minutes, and some days I'm sure I sent more than my fair share of emails but there was never a delay in her response timing.
  
  The entire night went off without a hitch, completely seamless, from the moment I arrived. All night long our guests were coming up to us to let us know how great something was whether it was the food, the service or the view!
  
  I had a lot of DYI at my wedding and the Millennium was there with open arms to my crafts and Ashley was more than ready to assist in organizing and arranging.
  
  I could go on and on about how absolutely fabulous everything was but in summary, do not miss your chance to work with unbelievable team at an equal as incredible venue space!

  One of the reasons my wedding exceeded my (and my guests) expectations was my venue. Let me first say that working with Millennium was a pleasure. The coordinators were always really responsive, and super reasonable. I know I always had a ton of questions and changed things around a lot and they were always really accommodating. It offered everything I was looking for: 1. We were the only event for the day 2. Fantastic food (EVERYONE told us how GREAT the food was, but I had already known that from the tastings *smile*) 3. A post reception area to continue partying (they will block off a portion of the restaurant for your guests) 4. High quality service (the room set-up was gorgeous, and the service was perfect. An example was that I didn't have time to eat my dinner, so the staff asked if I wanted them to bring to back to the kitchen to keep it warm, I said no so instead they wrapped it up and set it up in my room so I could eat it after the wedding (like I asked)).
  
  Depending on your budget the venue wasn't a little pricey, but it was worth EVERY penny. Not to mention their open bar is really cheap (one of the many reasons we choose this venue). I got SO many compliments from my guests saying how perfect everything was, and how it was the best wedding they had ever gone to. I want to also take the the time to say how with the new rennovations, Millenium doesn't have the blah hotel feel. It has a gorgeous view of the city with and entire wall of Juliet balconies and a glass. It looks SUPER modern even the cocktail tables are fantastic looking.
