Concierge.com's insider take:
This 193-room Ritz-Carlton was brand-new in fall 2001—and it shows. All is crisp and clean and right-angled, with floor-to-ceiling windows. A $11 million upgrade in early 2008 replaced the guest rooms' sober all-beige color scheme with cheerier hues of apricot, blue, and yellow (flat-screen high-definition TVs and hardwood furniture are new as well), expanded the Club Lounge, and refreshed the lobby. The place also is a veritable museum of contemporary New England art, complete with self-guided exhibition brochures in the rooms. And it's in the arty Ladder District, thick with theaters, including the Opera House (reopened in July 2004), and a 19-screen Loews multiplex connected to the hotel. Also connected, by hotel elevator, though at extra charge (when are top-rate hotels going to quit charging for their gyms?) is the vast Sports Club/LA, complete with junior Olympic pool, spa, and beauty salon. The restaurant, bizarrely named JER-NE (pronounced "journey") is a likeable romp through glammed-up retro Americana that serves seafood and steaks.
