Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Cambridge
Across the Charles River in Cambridge, the Marlowe offers a Kimpton-signature combination of playful design (animal mascots, nightly wine hour) and MIT/Harvard proximity at prices 20-30% below comparable Back Bay options. Request river-view rooms for Charles River panoramas and Cambridge skyline.
Beacon Hill
Converted from the Charles Street Jail (1851) where suffragettes and abolitionists were once imprisoned, The Liberty is Boston's most dramatically repurposed historic building. The original granite cell blocks form the atrium, guest room doors retain iron bars, and the Alibi bar in the former drunk tank is Boston's most memorable cocktail room.
Back Bay
An independently owned Back Bay landmark since 1900, the Lenox sits directly on the Marathon finish line on Boylston Street with a warmth and character that chain hotels struggle to match. Original working fireplaces in many rooms, an excellent on-site restaurant (City Table), and genuine pride in Boston identity set it apart.
Seaport
A sleek 136-room boutique that punches above its size in Boston's Seaport district, with a rooftop bar (Lookout Rooftop) that is consistently ranked among the city's top outdoor drinking destinations — featuring Boston Harbor views and a menu from James Beard-nominated chefs. The lobby doubles as a gallery for emerging New England artists.
Seaport
The anchor hotel of Boston's Seaport Innovation District, with harbor views, a direct connection to the Seaport World Trade Center, and 428 rooms that balance business functionality with genuine New England maritime character. Its conference facilities and proximity to the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center make it the city's top meeting hotel.
Back Bay
The grande dame of Boston hotels — open since 1912 and still commanding Copley Square with Beaux-Arts majesty. The Oak Bar and Oak Room have hosted every US president since Taft, and the gilded ballroom remains Boston's most storied event space. Rooms are classically large for New England, and the location between Trinity Church and the Boston Public Library is unbeatable.
