A Unique Boston Lodging
The Boston Common Hotel & Conference Center was constructed in 1925 as the Club House for the University Club of Boston. The Club House was eventually sold on August 1, 1962 to the Chandler School for Women. In June of 1971, the School resold the building to the John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company.
From 1972 to 1986, the building served as the housing and training facility for new John Hancock insurance agents. The building was closed for renovations from January 1986 to September 1986, after which the John Hancock Conference Center was open to the public for both for meeting space and guest rooms. In December of 2011 the hotel was sold and became the Boston Common Hotel & Conference Center.
