Boston Park Plaza announced the completion of a multiyear, $100 million renovation and restoration project. The extensive transformation included the complete overhaul of the hotel’s 1,060 guest rooms and corridors, main entrances and lobby, meeting spaces and mezzanine levels, the addition of an all-new library room and the replacement of all furniture and fixtures.
“This rejuvenation project has completely transformed Boston Park Plaza into a self-contained nucleus that pairs top-notch hospitality, world-class dining and high-end fitness amenities,” said Jon Crellin, managing director, Boston Park Plaza. “[The hotel] now truly reflects the city of Boston’s standing as a world-class destination known for its rich history and modern innovations.”

Additionally, in late 2016, Starbucks will open a signature store, and Leica Camera will run a store and gallery in the lobby.
Through the renovation, Boston Park Plaza has also gained an additional 6,000 square feet of fully renovated professional meeting and prefunction space, bringing its grand total to 51,000 square feet. Boston Park Plaza’s storied ballroom has also been fully updated with a new design and palette.
