Raffles Boston rolls out major offer for the ultraluxe hotel’s first birthday
Boston's newest ultraluxury hotel gem is having a birthday party, and there are deals to be had if you book soon.
Raffles Boston is celebrating its one-year anniversary this weekend and has a limited-time offer for those who book a stay between now and the end of Monday. The elegant hotel in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood typically sees nightly rates starting at over $1,000, but the Raffles Boston one-year celebration offer will have you luxuriating in the sky-high hotel for quite the steal.
The $915 (in honor of Raffles Boston's Sept. 15 opening date last year) one-year anniversary offer includes a two-night stay in a Deluxe room along with a welcome drink and the signature butler service associated with the Raffles brand. Stays must be completed by April 17 of next year, and the offer is subject to availability. Click here to book your stay, and note that a full, nonrefundable deposit is required.
This is an excellent way, especially in a pricey hotel market like Boston, to experience one of the most buzzed-about hotels in the U.S. Raffles got its start in Singapore, where it continues to reign as a global crown jewel for hospitality.
Raffles Boston is the Accor-affiliated brand's first mixed-use development in the U.S. and features highly popular bars and restaurants like Long Bar & Terrace (a glammed-up version of its peanut-shells-on-floor sibling in Singapore), the picturesque Amar, La Padrona (a new Italian restaurant at the hotel) and the Blind Duck speak-easy.
Raffles Boston quite literally stands out among other luxury hotels in the city, as guests check in on the hotel's 17th-floor sky lobby before their butler whisks them to one of the property's residential-style guest rooms or suites. Since TPG checked out the property last fall, the hotel's amenities have expanded to include more restaurants, the ground-floor Cafe Pastel for coffee and pastries, and the decadent Guerlain Spa.
You'll want to consider using some of those nightly rate savings on a spa splurge (the Royal Honey Repair & Renew facial is a particular favorite) or drinks and dinner at Amar, La Padrona or Blind Duck.
This is a birthday celebration, after all. Treat yourself.
