The Quincy House was a hotel in downtown Boston, Massachusetts, United States.
Located on the corner of Brattle Street and Brattle Square in the neighborhood of Scollay Square, it was in operation for most of the 19th and early 20th centuries. It was the largest hotel in Boston in the late 19th century, and was a popular destination for prominent guests to the city. It also served as a major headquarters for labor unions in Boston.
Quincy House was closed in 1929. The site is now occupied by City Hall Plaza, in front of Boston City Hall.
