Morgans to Open Ames in Boston This Fall
Filed under: Journeys

The Morgans Hotel Group, which in addition to the ultra-chic Morgans in New York also owns the Royalton, Hudson, St. Martins Lane, Clift, and Shore Club, will open its newest property dubbed the Ames this fall in central Boston. Described as "Benjamin Franklin meets a supermodel", designed by Rockwell Group in collaboration with the Morgans' design team, the Ames is "a rich blend of "historical ingenuity and innovative and awe-inspiring modernism," as well as a mix of "old-world aesthetics and contemporary luxury, and of dedicated homage to history and forward-thinking innovation." Housed in a 19th-century Romanesque building (above) formerly operated as the headquarters for the Ames tool company, the 113-room hotel offers 95 guest rooms, one apartment and six deluxe one-bedroom suites as well as the Woodward, a luxe new restaurant-bar concept.
