Overview

The Whitney Hotel Boston might be a youngling by Beacon Hill’s standards, but it captures the city’s spirit with its red-brick top coat and townhouse-esque interiors. A stone's throw from the river on historic Charles Street, the hotel is in the part of the city that calls to mind the Founding Fathers: iron gas lamps and Federal-style homes line the cobbled streets, and the words ‘oldest’ and ‘first’ crop up a lot. In the lounge, the high ceilings, open fire and French-oak floors mimic the neighbouring townhouses – but in the rooms, the design has a more modern lean. Restaurant Peregrine evokes the city’s Italian connections with a menu that tours Sicily and Sardinia, pandering to the Bostonian appetite for pesce e pasta.

Dining information

Restaurant:

Peregrine whisks diners to sun-bleached Sicily and Sardinia, both favourite hunting grounds of the namesake falcons. The influence of Corsica and Catalonia is also apparent, with breakfast having a particularly Spanish lean. Of course, the ocean-crossing menu also tells a story about Boston, which has more than its fair share of delis, trattorias and brasseries, many of them family-owned and in business for several generations. Start with a spread of antipasti – try the pickled Gulf shrimp, serrano ham and herb and garlic baked oysters. For main, go for the hake or the wild mussels and local clams, served with tomato, olive oil and mint.

Top Table:

Request a seat next to the windows that look into the garden.

Hotel Bar:
