One of the coolest places to go out in Boston. This luxury hotel used to be a prison and they've tastefully kept the prison aesthetics throughout. The beautiful lobby turns into a gigantic bar and there's a club/lounge called Alibi on the first floor. Dress nice and show up before 10am to avoid a long line to get in. Located next to the Charles/MGH T stop on the Red Line subway.
