The heart and spirit of this dynamic metropolitan hub is Kenmore Square, where Hotel Commonwealth is located. Kenmore Square is the ultimate all-access point for the plethora of urban experiences that make up Boston, since it is located at the intersection (both physically and figuratively) of the best of Boston's academic, business, and entertainment neighborhoods. The nexus is the Hotel Commonwealth. Our hotel is part neighborhood hub — the place to meet, greet, and eat in Kenmore Square – and part entryway to anyplace a city day might take you.
