Is there a difference between saying "Servicing All Boston Hotels" or "Serving All Boston Hotels"? This is in the context of signage for a shuttle service.

I think "serving" is better than "servicing". They are similar, but "servicing" suggests that the company somehow performs repairs in the hotels themselves; whereas on of the main meanings of "serving" is to deliver something to a person or location.

Servicing... sounds like your some kind of maintenance service.
Why not: "Engaging All Boston Hotels"

The root for both words is "serve", but if it were my sign I would use "serving."
"Servicing" sounds like an escort service.
And speaking of escort services, see Jessica above.
