So many delicious choices. Everything was great and met each of our dietary needs. Our servers were great, making sure the mimosa was flowing, getting coffee, etc. Lovely setting overlooking the harbor, nice music group and very well paced so it wasn't crowded.

The food was good but not exceptional in any way... A little less of an array that one would expect for $250/person... The room was absolutely freezing... I couldn't take my coat off.. I got 1 mimosa... was never asked again for a drink... or for anything for that matter.. had to steal napkins from another table...... Not worth the price by a long shot.

The brunch was outstanding. however, I was not apprised of the price anywhere, so I was a little shocked when I got the bill and I wasn't sure what was and wasn't included up front. As this was a combination Graduation/Mother's day celebration, I was happy to pay, but I wish there had been more transparency for us out of towners up front.

We celebrated Christmas at the Boston Harbor Hotel Holiday Brunch, and it was excellent! It was a beautiful day looking out at the harbor, and the selection of foods was outstanding. The vegetarian guests found many items to chose from, as did everyone else. Santa made the rounds, and patiently posed for photos with everyone who wanted one. Only suggestion is that one has to pace oneself, otherwise one will be too full to fully enjoy the room just with desserts!

Brilliant Christmas Day buffet. Plenty of options for everyone to have what they wanted for Christmas dinner. All the food was well presented and tasty. Yes it is expensive, but we knew this beforehand and are paying for the overall experience not just the food. We spent a few hours there enjoying the atmosphere and exchanging gifts. Service was great too. Highly recommend.

This was the worst brunch we have ever been to. The food was horrible and the service was even worse. They didn’t replenish food and never returned with drinks. It was ridiculously expensive for a brunch that I wouldn’t even spend $20 per person for. Very disappointed.

This was our 2nd time doing a Thanksgiving Brunch at the Boston Harbor Hotel. We were disappointed and would not be doing this again, The place lacked management and the overall experience was less than optimal. When we arrived, we got escorted into the dining room and the person taking us to our table abrupted departed and left us standing in the middle of the dining room. One of the waiters tried to find a table for us and we got seated. Nobody came to greet us. We just decided to go to the buffet and get some food. The food quality was pretty good - especially the turkey. Many of the items were finished and there was no replacement. The dessert section was unimpressive. I think the Boston Harbor needs better management. This used to be a great experience. It is not anymore.
