Renaissance Boston Seaport District

A ship's sail gave this 21-story Seaport tower its silhouette, while the great ocean liners of the 1930s and 1940s inspired the original interiors. KlingStubbins and Cheryl Rowley Design shaped the $165 million hotel, which opened in 2008 as Renaissance's first Boston address with 471 rooms; Parker Torres brought the rooms and lobby forward in a 2025 renovation rooted in the district's old fish piers, warehouses, and artists' lofts.
