This upscale European-style inn blends into the neighborhood without flashiness or fanfare. Carved out of former residential buildings typical of Beacon Hill, the hotel has 12 very small but stylish rooms decorated with contemporary furniture, louvered shutters and a designer’s soothing palette of paint choices. Added perks include the exclusive roof deck, and complimentary breakfast at the urbane, on-site bistro.
