The Liberty, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Boston has added another remarkable achievement to its long list of accolades: inclusion in Condé Nast Traveler’s inaugural Triple Crown collection, a distinction reserved for hotels that have earned all three of the publication’s most prestigious honors.
Launched in 2026, the Condé Nast Traveler Triple Crown recognizes a select group of hotels that have achieved sustained excellence across decades of hospitality. To qualify, a property must have appeared on Condé Nast Traveler’s Hot List, which celebrates the world’s best new hotel openings; the Gold List, which highlights editors’ favorite hotels; and the Readers’ Choice Awards, voted on by travelers themselves.
This “best of the best” designation places The Liberty among an elite collection of hotels across the United States, Canada, and around the world that have consistently delivered exceptional guest experiences.
Located in Boston’s historic Beacon Hill neighborhood, The Liberty has long stood out as one of the city’s most distinctive hospitality destinations. Originally built as the Charles Street Jail in 1851, the landmark property was transformed into a luxury hotel while preserving many of its iconic architectural features. Today, the hotel blends rich history with contemporary design, creating an experience that is uniquely Boston.
Over the years, Condé Nast Traveler has repeatedly recognized The Liberty for its memorable guest experience, vibrant social atmosphere, and innovative adaptive reuse of a historic landmark. The publication has described the property as a standout example of “the magic that happens when old meets new,” while readers have consistently ranked it among Boston’s top hotels.
The Triple Crown recognition reflects more than a single year of excellence—it celebrates a sustained commitment to outstanding hospitality, distinctive design, and exceptional service. As one of the few properties to achieve this milestone, The Liberty continues to reinforce its reputation as a premier destination for travelers seeking an unforgettable stay in Boston.
