Review
The 2007 opening of the Liberty Hotel brought luxury living to the renovated Charles Street Jail, most of which was restored along historical lines. The designers preserved the original catwalks and spectacular windows, and the atmosphere is hip and lounge-y. In a playful nod to the building’s notorious past, the restaurant is named Clink and the do-not-disturb signs read SOLITARY.
The 298 guest rooms, located in either renovated cell blocks or the 16-story tower, are serene and elegant and have rich mahogany furniture, soft linens and Molton Brown bath products. Modern touches include flat-screen televisions and wireless access. The Liberty is central to public transportation, Massachusetts General Hospital, the Museum of Science and the Charles River; many rooms overlook the latter. Be sure to have a meal at the CLINK, the hotel’s hip seafood-focused restaurant, as well.
