Boston’s Seaport Hotel Completes Renovation

The Seaport Hotel, located on the waterfront in Boston’s Seaport District, has completed major renovations transforming it into an entirely new hotel offering. All of the Seaport’s 428 guest rooms have been completely updated with luxurious amenities, adding many new features that modern business and leisure travelers prefer. In addition to the guest rooms, the renovation also encompasses the newly expanded and reinvented Tamo Restaurant & Bar.

The Seaport’s sustainability-related improvements include all new energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling system and in-room recycling. Each room now includes a Telkonet energy management solution, which allows for better control of the room lighting and temperature. Guests can leave and enter their room several times a day and the Telkonet system will turn off heating and lights to conserve energy and will automatically reset all systems exactly to what they were as guests approach their room.

The guest rooms have been completely modernized with new wall coverings, carpeting and new furniture designed for maximum mobility for work and leisure including triple-sheeted pillowtop mattresses, topped with luxurious Frette linens and fluffy pillows. Each room also has an edge-lit, 46-inch LED high-definition television and a laptop-sized safe with interior lighting. Redesigned bathrooms have added space and include enhanced lighting, walk-in showers in many rooms, fog-free mirrors, and Gilchrest and Soames bath amenities. Suites include televisions built into the bathroom mirrors, walk-in rain showers and radiant heated floors. The hotel’s standard room feature complimentary wireless Internet access, Keurig coffee and tea service and mini-fridges.

For the newly expanded and redesigned Tamo, Chef Robert Tobin has created a new menu reflecting “contemporary cuisine with a Boston accent.” The new space features two-story windows, a fireplace and comfortable lounge and traditional seating. Tamo’s popular bar has harbor and streetscape views in an updated, social setting, and Tamo Loft has more seating and space for private parties.

Seaport’s groundbreaking environmental program called Seaport Saves encompasses a variety of initiatives including more than 500,000 bees that call the Seaport home and provide the hotel’s restaurants with honey; the city’s first in-room recycling program, electric vehicle charging stations, complimentary use of bicycles for hotel guests and chemical-free cleaning products. Seaport was named one of “North America’s Five Greenest Hotels” by Fodor’s.
