Design Aesthetic:
- Drawing inspiration from the elegant homes of the neighbouring Beacon Hill and Back Bay, Ken Fulk's lobby and porte cochere design blends the timelessness of the Hotel with the splendour of its Public Garden setting; grand but residential in scale, the interior's series of spaces welcome guests with a sense of intimacy that has been masterfully designed to evoke the character and rich history of the destination
- Built around the luxury of space, the guest rooms are tranquil and open, emphasising the gorgeous views through carefully refreshed window treatments and streamlined furnishings; from the new Four Seasons beds to the prominent headboard of white washed oak and upholstered inset panels, the sleek accommodations give new meaning to Four Seasons “Sleep Temple” concept, offering guests a space that is light and fresh with a modern outlook defined by comfort, calm, and relaxation
