A Boston police spokesman told NBC10 Boston that autopsies on the people were set to be conducted Tuesday.
Officers were called to the hotel about 12:22 p.m., according to Boston police, who were seen coming and going from the building about a block from Boston Common for hours.
"The general public and other guests should not be concerned at this time," Hayden told reporters outside the hotel, noting that an employee alerted authorities to the deaths and that it was too soon to know if foul play was involved.
Hotel guest Samantha Poorman, who was visiting from Michigan, said her stay was mostly nice until she learned of the deaths.
"This is insane. I mean there is no soundproofing in those rooms either, I mean I listen to the people next to me who watch movies all night. So the fact that nobody heard anything…," she said.
NBC10 Boston has reached out to the hotel, which is owned by Marriott, for comment.
