Hydrogen Bonding will increase the boiling point.

Explanation:

Hydrogen Bonding is a type of dipole-dipole interaction. This means that there are permanent partial charges on hydrogen and oxygen in water, so they attract each other from separate molecules. This attractive force makes them harder to separate to enter the gas phase.
