What makes the hotel so distinct is its history. The Liberty Hotel has transformed from Charles Street Jail, a national historic landmark and architectural gem built in 1851, to a sleek 298 room hotel. 

According to their website, a team of designers and architects collaborated with historians and conservationists from the Massachusetts Historical Commission, the Boston Landmarks Commission, the National Park Service and the Boston Redevelopment Authority to ensure that the end result is a careful balance between preservation and dynamic new use.
