Nice = Jurys
154 Berkeley St, in the Back Bay. One of Boston’s finest Italian Renaissance Revival buildings. It was built in 1926 and served as the headquarters of the Boston Police Department.
Today this handsome building is home to Jurys, one of Boston’s nicest hotels, operated by Jurys Doyle, Ireland’s premier hotel group. If you are visiting Boston, this is a nice place to stay.
Cuffs, the hotel’s bar, has a neat sunken patio that’s quite lovely for a tranquil mid-morning snack.
I just checked the hotel’s site, their internet promo rates are very reasonable. Click the photo below for details (no, this is not a paid plug; I just happen to like this hotel).
