I was there somewhat recently...if your travelling for business its a solid hotel. Easy to find Excellent gym for a hotel Free Breakfast Free Wi-Fi Free Parking Room I had was good and thats about it. |
Was there last weekend and will echo the comments above, along with the following.
No Exec floor, but free buffet breakfast offered to Golds/Diamonds. No upgrade to suite as gold, but then not expected either. Avoid rooms that overlook the lobby area, as noise levels can get high if there is a party in one of the ball rooms. Free shuttle to Amtrak Route 128 station, shuttle or short walk (3 blocks) to the MBTA Dedham Corporate Park station for commuter train into Boston proper. Decent restaurant. |

Hotel needs renovation. |
Hilton Boston/Dedham - Anyone been?
Good morning!
Just wondering if anyone has stayed at the Hilton Boston/Dedham (3 Miles from Hyde Park). If so, do they do gold upgrades? Please advise if you get a moment! :) Thank you! Holly |

I am at the Hilton Dedham right now, so I'll update the thread with my experience.
Pros:
Cons:
I could have stayed at the HI in Braintree and gotten better service than this (although the rooms here are physically nicer.) I'm not likely to stay here again. |

Boston is just far enough away to make it inconvenient for that. If I can avoid it, I will not stay at this property again, though. The only reason I stay here because my business is in Dedham....There really is nothing else around except a horrible Holiday Inn. |

Stayed there 4/28. Got an upgrade to a suite with a nice terrace deck looking over the wetlands and jogging trail behind the hotel. You could almost ignore how close Rt 128 was.
Echoing a prior poster's comment about an unusually good gym for a hotel. Almost a real health club, albeit a small one. WiFi is not free, it's a T-Mobile roaming partner location if I recall. However since I arrived early and needed to use the wifi before checking in to attend a meeting, the manager on duty said just to buy the day pass for the current day, and then he'd take the day of the stay's wifi off my bill. Since I already have a T-Mobile account my day pass on their roaming partner was 1/2 the price that the manager took off my bill, so I came out ahead on the deal. If you need to be in the western suburbs of Boston, along the Rt 128 corridor (ok, now it's called I-95 but we all know it as 128), it's not a bad choice at all. I wouldn't stay there for working in downtown Boston unless none of the other more convenient and reasonably priced Hilton Family properties were available. But supposedly they do shuttle you to the T commuter rail station if you need to get downtown. |

Thanks for the shuttle info. I may end up staying there on an upcoming BOS trip then if I can't get a cheap rate at something downtown. My client is near South Station so the Franklin line probably works ok for me.
