Dive Insight:

Situated along the Freedom Trail, Hyatt Centric Faneuil Hall Boston opened in 2019 and is within walking distance from the city’s leisure, dining, financial and retail district. The pet-friendly hotel also features a coffee bar and an on-site Irish-American bistro, per its website. 

The hotel “has a strong foundation in one of the city’s most dynamic locations, and we look forward to working alongside the property team to further elevate the guest experience and unlock its long-term potential,” Mais said. 

Moreover, Boston is a “leading urban hospitality market” fueled by “its diversified demand base and high barriers to entry for new hotel supply,” Jenna Kronenfeld, head of acquisitions at EOS Investors, said in a statement. According to tourism agency Meet Boston, the city’s occupancy, RevPAR and ADR were all up year over year at the end of 2025. 

EOS Hospitality manages 69 hotels across the U.S., including 18 across the New England region and nine in premier urban markets, per the firm. Hyatt Centric Faneuil Hall Boston also deepens its relationship with Hyatt as it grows its roster of Hyatt Centric properties. 

According to its website, EOS also owns the 316-room Hyatt Centric Fisherman’s Wharf San Francisco, which it bought from Park Hotels & Resorts last year, CoStar News reported. 

In 2024, EOS bought the 183-key luxury William Vale Hotel in Brooklyn, New York, for $177 million, which marked its first New York City property at the time.
