About Boston

Welcoming and accessible, the Boston area is a wonderful destination. Summertime means seasonal favorites such as harbor cruises and island hopping, street festivals and window shopping, open air markets, star-studded concerts and music under the stars. Dining al fresco is another summer treat, whether you’re having a five-course dinner, a light repast after a day of sightseeing or simply enjoying a cup of clam chowder and a locally brewed beer. And of course, what summer would be complete without enjoying the world-champion Red Sox playing at venerable Fenway Park? There are walking trails for big feet and little feet and tours by land or by sea. For tired feet, trolley tours take you where you want to go. You can tour with period costumed guides or take a tour with your cell phone or MP3 player. In Boston, you can blaze your own trail with total summer freedom!

For the historian in you, the Freedom Trail will lead you through Boston, stopping at Paul Revere’s House, Old North Church, Old South Meeting House and many other sites. The Aquarium, Museum of Fine Arts and the Museum of Science are also all nearby. Duck Tours can be arranged through the hotel concierge and some of New England’s most scenic beaches are only a short drive away.

You may want to stay in Boston through the July 4th weekend, which will culminate in our famous celebration on the banks of the Charles River, featuring a free performance by the Boston Pops Orchestra and a world-class fireworks show over the river. More for more information about Boston's July 4th is available here!
