Inside The Newly Redesigned Royal Suite At Four Seasons Hotel Boston
The cinema room. Four Seasons Hotel Boston first opened in June 1985 in the city's Back Bay and has since been a staple in Boston's luxury hotel scene. There have been many renovations over the years, including a 2023 refresh of the lobby, Coterie lounge and restaurant, and lobby-level amenities by AD100 designer Ken Fulk. More than a year later, the hotel's crown jewel accommodation, the Royal Suite, was extensively redesigned to match these elegant additions and renovations. Situated on the sixth floor, the 2,590-square-foot Royal Suite overlooks the Boston Public Garden and has an entrance foyer, one bedroom, one bathroom, a powder room, service kitchen, a private balcony, dining room, a living room, and a private cinema room. The suite was transformed by Boston-based Niemitz Design Group, a firm that specializes in restaurant, hotel, and entertainment design, who hoped to create a residential-inspired suite with bold colors and classic architectural details. It was meant to recreate the feeling of a classic Boston brownstone seen in the Back Bay neighborhood. The private bar. The lovely living room has a fireplace and a private marble-topped bar with seating for four—perfect for private events. It connects to a small balcony with seating that overlooks the skyline and public gardens. Together, there's room for up to 25 guests in total. The bar is stocked with a martini set-up starring Coterie gin, which was created exclusively for the hotel by Short Path Distillery in Everett, Massachusetts. The nearby dining room can seat up to 12 guests and has grasscloth walls, blue moulding, and a gold-veined ceiling. The dining room. 'The gold pattern on the ceiling was selected because it's interesting both day and night,' says Peter Niemitz, founder of Niemitz Design Group. 'When you have candlelight or low lighting at night, it becomes a very striking room. With the colors and patterns, the goal was to make it look dramatic without being over the top.' It's the striking use of color and thoughtful details (like the curated library and decor) that make this suite feel like a private home. Niemitz says that all of the carpets were custom designed and made exclusively for each room. The group also custom designed the furniture and had it exclusively made for each space. Perhaps one of the most well-dressed (and most fun) rooms within the suite is the private cinema room, which has royal blue walls, a tufted velvet chaise, patterned carpet, and built-in blue cabinets and media stand. Oversized windows looking out onto the gardens add natural light to the space. The bedroom. The cinema room has tiered seating with a custom-designed multi-room Bang and Olufsen sound system and Apple TV. There's even popcorn and theater treats similar to the Vaults, which are the hotel's fully stocked snack pantries located on each floor. The pantry kitchen just outside the theater also has sweet treats from a local confectioner and is stocked with an array of beverages. The Royal Suite's rates are $14,000 and up per night and it's available for both short-term and long-term stays, as well as private events.
