Encore Boston Harbor - Everett

Wonderful Boston hotel but when we checked out at 12:00 pm on Saturday, August 19 the valet service was zero stars. Even though the station was not particularly busy the wait for our car to come up from the garage was over 25 minutes. When bringing this to the attention of the people in the little ticket office we were told that our car was brought up long ago and was sitting just beyond the porte cochere. This was not true and after another 10 minutes of waiting our car was finally brought up from the garage. Very frustrating since we had a plane to catch, and not at all understandable since, again, the station was definitely not busy. A very poor way to end what was otherwise a delightful five star experience at Encore.

Very unsafe for solo Black travelers. Drunk white men picked a fight with me and another white male mocked my accent on the elevator. A random white male continued to try to poke and shove me while his girlfriend gave me dirty looks. Then got in my face when I addressed the issue. There was more than enough space around us so I'm sure it was intentional. Security came but no one came to my defense. What I realize about Boston is that this is normal here. Not where I'm from. I won't accept it, and I won't be back.

Encore Boston Harbor is very similar to Wynn in Las Vegas, right down to the layout of the room bathroom. I felt very much at home here since I've stayed at Wynn a number of times. In fact, I chose this hotel because it is part of the Wynn family. Very clean and modern. Excellent restaurants on site. Friendly front desk staff. Beautiful flowers in the main lobby.

This hotel is wonderful. IMMACULATE. The cleanliness was off the charts. The grounds are vast, the gardens lush, and the park is a great place to decompress. Casino typical, nothing noteworthy. Shake shack was a disaster, disorganized and slooooow. The room, we had a suite, was glorious, spacious and filled with amenities. To the reason they got 4 out of 5 stars, beds were wicked uncomfortable, talk of the morning at our meeting. Otherwise a terrific experience a

The Encore Boston has one of the nicest room we have stayed in. at 650sq ft of luxury, we did not want to leave. For a video review of this room, head over to You.Tube and search for 'Tim and Matt Travel ' for this and many others! This place really felt like they had taken a bit of Vegas, shrunk it right down and plonked it down in Boston. The room was luxurious with a fabulous view across the harbor, and the casino offered a huge floor with plenty of games to choose from. We are already working out how to get back to Boston to visit again.
