“Clarendon Square feels like a personal discovery, tucked away on a quiet South End street near Back Bay station. The blend of a brownstone's charm with luxurious updates, like the rooftop hot tub and designer rooms, creates a distinctive experience; I particularly appreciate the walkable access to Boston Common and local dining. It stands out as an intimate, adults-only retreat with a uniquely attentive touch.”
