Hotel 140

Next door to John Hancock and Copley Plaza in the heart of Back Bay, Hotel 140 has boutique rooms and suites.

Understated exclusitivity. In the shadow of the towering John Hancock building, Hotel 140 stands as an historic icon and beacon of warmth and hospitality in the center of Boston. Constructed as the first YWCA in the country, Hotel 140 does not need flashy signs and waving banners. Travelers "in the know," know that the aged "140" over the door is the only sign needed. They know they will find a lobby where an amalgam of tourists and locals alike enjoy coffee and conversation, and that the core and soul of the building is still based in philanthropy and a strong commitment to the community. The best kept secret in Back Bay.

Prized historical value meets modern vision at Hotel 140. We officially opened our doors at Hotel 140 in June 2005, boasting understated, comfortable rooms in the heart of Back Bay. Named for our desirable Clarendon Street location, Hotel 140 is a smart solution for travelers ranging from the collegiate crowd, to tourists in the know, to the savvy business traveler. We are across the street from Copley Square shopping, and just a short walk to Newbury Street, Prudential Center, and the expanding arts and cultural offerings of the Theatre District.

The building is a Boston landmark, beautifully constructed in 1929 as the nation's first YWCA. We feel it is imperative to honor our social awareness by loyally maintaining relationships with long term residents.
