We celebrated my daughter's 21st birthday in Boston, staying at Encore. It was the perfect location to explore some of the most attractive areas of the city -- the Museum of Fine Arts, the Newbury shopping district, the Theatre District, and many, many wonderful restaurants and shops. Reinhold's dining suggestions were spot on, and next time we stay in Boston... More

This B & B has one thing that no other B & B in Boston has and that is owner/host, Reinhold. When speaking with Reinhold, it is clear why he and Encore are so successful. His kind personality and soft demeanor translate directly into the overall beauty, feel and service found at Encore. The breakfasts are light, tasty, and fresh.... More

We had the pleasure of spending the Christmas holidays at Encore and our eight night stay could not have been better. A perfect location in the South End just where West Newton Street meets Tremont Street, so an easy walk to great places to eat and drink and also a short walk to the "T" at Prudential and Back Bay...

We enjoyed our second stay at Encore a few weeks ago. We did look forward to another visit and it was great to see Reinhold again. The breakfasts are delicious and one can customize according to your appetite which is a very nice touch. The rooms are beautifully decorated with modern furnishings and the beds are very comfortable. It's within... More

We spent a long weekend in Boston and really loved staying at Encore B&B in the 'Jerome Robbins' room. The house and room were beautifully decorated, with Aveda products in the bathroom and a delicious breakfast every morning. Reinhold even shared his grandmother's recipe for making perfect soft boiled eggs! The South End neighborhood is walking distance to restaurants, theater... More

I enjoyed my stay Encore. The location was excellent, lovely street. The room was clean, spacious, nicely furnished, had a comfortable bed. My only suggestion to improve it is to provide additional lighting inside the wardrobe. The breakfasts were excellent, especially enjoyed the scones and brioche. The hosts, Reinhold and David were very nice and they obviously know the area... More

Dear Maria. First thank you for a great review; of course we love to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We are allways happy to share the Haloween experience especially in our neighborhood with our guests, because it is the least thing somebody from abroad expects to happen in this country. More

We recently spent a week in Boston at 'Encore'. The room was comfortable and very clean with a private bathroom. Reinhold was a great host and most helpful. Encore is conveniently located to Back Bay Station and the restaurants on Tremont and Newberry Streets. We would reccomend Encore to our friends and family and would not hesitate to at Encore...

My partner and I stayed at the Encore B&B this past weekend to celebrate her 36th birthday. We stayed in the Albee room which was trendy, well appointed, & clean, it also had a balcony which added to the charm of the location. Reinhold was a pleasure and he bent over backwards to assure that our stay was a pleasant... More

Sorry, it took me so long to respond to your great post. I am more then sorry if I overlooked that it actually was your partner's 36th birthday, but I was researching our correspondence and couldn't find any indication of it. Happy belated Birthday to your partner. I am happy you enjoyed your choice for a get-away! More
