The Colonnade Hotel Unveils $20 Million Reinvention

The Colonnade Boston Hotel, located in Boston’s fashionable Back Bay and Copley neighborhood, has completed a comprehensive $20 million dollar enhancement program that includes renovation of all guestrooms, public areas and corridors and installation of state-of-the-art technology and other amenities throughout the hotel.

The Colonnade is home to the city’s only roof top pool and to a host of recently remodeled function rooms and the hotel’s grand ballroom, providing the setting for many of the city’s memorable business and social events. The Colonnade is within walking distance of many of Boston’s finest shops, museums, galleries, and landmarks including Symphony Hall and Fenway Park and is located just minutes from Logan International Airport.

The Colonnade Boston Hotel is also home to Brasserie JO, Chef Jean Joho's classic Alsatian restaurant, which has won numerous local awards for Best After-Theater Dining, Best Business Lunch, and Best Breakfast.

"Whoa. Did the stylists at Saks Fifth Avenue, across the street at the Pru, sneak in and give the Colonnade an extreme make-over? The hotel has gone from so-over 80's brass-and-mahogany to a clean, modern look with tones of espresso, khaki, chocolate, and chrome. All this would be mere window dressing if it weren't for new, guest friendly touches like flat-panel TVs, DVD players, and alarm clock/MP3 players, plus extendable reading lights and fab high-tech coffee makers..."

"Out went fuddy-duddy floral decor and in came sleek, modern elegance; the genteel Colonnade Hotel's renovations are boutique hip, but with a smart, individual edge to the design. Rooms are a blend of geometric patterns, blonde woods, chrome and soothing chocolate browns with purple accents. A shimmering rooftop pool, 11 stories above the city streets, is another enticement to check in. The art deco-inspired bar offers great cocktails and happy hour deals, and the excellent ground floor restaurant, Brasserie Jo..., was well ahead of Boston's current taste for authentic French brasseries. If its coq au vin and steak frites don't appeal, the South End's myriad eateries and bars are close at hand."   TIME OUT Guide Boston 2007)
