The toilet is behind a door on the other side of the vanity. A makeup area with a cushioned chair, nicer than the ones in the bedroom, is located between the sinks. Separate shower and tub are perpendicular to the dual vanity. The bathroom was spacious, with a similar layout to the Vegas Encore. (More on this later.) I thanked her and proceeded to the guest elevators. She answered that I did, indeed, have a 4 pm late checkout. Since the agent hadn’t clarified late checkout, I asked if I was guaranteed a 4 pm checkout time. She then made a quick call, hung up, and asked me if I needed help with my bags. I politely mentioned the guaranteed 4 pm late checkout, pointing to the benefit on the sheet she had just handed me.

She acknowledged the Fine Hotels & Resorts stay and provided a sheet with the related benefits.Īfter stepping through the FHR particulars, the agent stated that due to the hotel being booked to capacity, a room upgrade and late checkout weren’t possible. The bubbly front desk agent greeted me and was able to immediately provide a room. Check-in was satisfactory but clearly less refined than at Encore Las Vegas. The front desk is adjacent to the flowery lobby, a boilerplate feature by Wynn and Encore standards. I arrived at Encore Boston Harbor at about 1 pm, and I was immediately greeted at registration. I’ll step through all the FHR credit specifics at Encore Boston Harbor in a future article. I leveraged my cash back rewards to cover the rate overage and tips. My out of pocket expense was $303, not including gratuities.

The room rate was $450, plus $53 in taxes for a $503 total. I booked my Encore Boston Harbor stay via Amex’s Fine Hotels & Resorts program and leveraged a Platinum $200 FHR credit for the stay. I could leverage my Amex Platinum FHR credit, plus compare a stay here to the excellent one I had at the Encore Las Vegas. But Encore Boston Harbor, on the outskirts of downtown, was available via Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts. Cash prices most everywhere started in the $400s. Of course, Game 3 of the NBA Finals was the same night points hotels downtown were virtually unavailable. My timeframe wasn’t flexible as I had already purchased my ticket for the Sigur Ros show at the Wang Theatre. But a combination of factors led me to consider and ultimately select Encore Boston Harbor for a recent one night stay. When I think of lodging options in Boston, a Vegas-style resort isn’t the first thing that crosses my mind.
