THE 10 BEST Hotels in Back Bay (Boston)
Back Bay Hotels
Wander around this quintessential neighborhood in the heart of Boston for high-end shops, restaurants, and the feeling of city bustle. Its most identifiable skyscrapers, the Prudential Center and John Hancock Tower, are highlights of the city skyline. Visit Newbury street to explore unique and trendy boutiques – as well as every other kind of store imaginable – all housed in beautiful brownstone buildings. In nice weather, restaurant patio seating is packed with Bostonians and tourists alike soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the food. Commonwealth Ave offers a beautiful stroll down residential tree-lined streets. Keep walking towards the Charles River and enjoy a beautiful view by the water. In warmer months, people run and bike on paths running along the esplanade, and sail and kayak on the Charles River. Boylston street, also full of shops, bars, and restaurants, is the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Head towards Copley Square and check out the Boston Public Library, which is particularly beautiful from the Dartmouth street entrance.

- Downtown HotelsThe largest area of the city, Downtown is rich with historical and iconic sites in Boston. Stroll through one of Boston’s most famous green spaces, the Boston Public Gardens, check out and make way for duckling statues, picnic under a beautiful tree overlooking the pond, and walk over the iconic footbridge where, during summer time, you will catch a swan boat toting children and eager tourists through the pond. Have your camera ready to capture its peaceful beauty in the middle of a bustling city. Continue on through the Gardens and take in some open green space at the Boston Common, where you can spend time throwing a frisbee, sitting on a park bench, or, in the winter time, skating on the frog pond. Head north from the end of the Common to see the golden dome of the State House, and travel through government center to Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall, both a historic and popular destination worth a quick visit for a first time to Boston. Head to Long Wharf to visit the Aquarium, or catch a boat to Charlestown or even Cape Cod.Read more
- Theater District HotelsThe Theater District in Boston invites cultural enthusiasts, foodies, and thespians alike. Imagine the allure of seeing a Broadway show at its birth, before it hits New York, at the iconic Boston Opera House or the Cutler Majestic Theatre. After the show, indulge in French cuisine at Troquet or relish a cocktail at Abby Lane. Venturing around the neighborhood, one can find the Freedom Trail, a 2.5-mile-long path through downtown Boston, that passes by 16 locations significant to the history of the United States. With multiple subway stations servicing the area, moving to and from the Theater District is a breeze.Read more
- Seaport District / South Boston Waterfront HotelsThis area has been expanding and becoming more and more popular, for good reason. Not surprisingly, the seaport district of South Boston is located beautifully along the water. The area is designed for easy strolling along the HarborWalk, and there are bars and restaurants for all ages and budgets. The Institute of Contemporary Art is located in this area in a contemporary building with an absolutely stunning deck overlooking the water. In the summer time there are Friday music concerts on the deck of the museum. Nearby, there are many green spaces to enjoy.Read more
- Financial District HotelsBoston's Financial District, the city's bustling hub of commerce and history, thrives with a unique blend of modernity and antiquity. Iconic structures such as the Custom House Tower punctuate the skyline, while sites like the Freedom Trail offer a glimpse into the neighborhood's rich past. The area is saturated with a diverse range of dining options, from upscale seafood restaurants to quaint cafes. Excellent connectivity via the MBTA subway system and numerous bus lines makes the Financial District a convenient base for exploring the broader city.

- Fenway / Kenmore HotelsThe Curse of the Bambino may have ended years ago, but loyal Red Sox fans will continue to infiltrate this home to historic Fenway Park, where you can find victory banners, people yelling in stereotypical Boston accents, and lots of sports bars. Located within Kenmore Square, the old gas station Citgo sign is another Boston skyline classic seen throughout the city. In addition to a hectic and diehard sports mentality, this neighborhood is also home to some of Boston’s many universities. Move from Boston University territory to that of Northeastern, and spend time at the famous Museum of Fine Arts. For more culture, check out the smaller but equally beautiful Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. Continue off the beaten path and check out the green space in the Back Bay Fens, a pretty community garden. This diverse neighborhood has a mix of universities, sports, culture, and more residential green space.Read more

Nearby, Roxbury is a hub for African-American culture, with landmarks like the Roxbury Heritage State Park and the Museum of the National Center of Afro-American Artists. In Mattapan, visitors can explore the lush greenery of the Boston Nature Center and Wildlife Sanctuary. Multiple transportation options, including the MBTA subway and bus lines, make navigating these neighborhoods effortless. From soul food to seafood, the dining scene in these neighborhoods is diverse and delectable, offering a taste of Boston's multicultural influences.Read more
- North End HotelsWandering around Boston’s North End can feel like being transported to Europe. Stroll down Hanover and Salem streets for the finest Italian restaurants, bakeries, cafes, and a few boutique shops. Take part in the big debate as to whether Modern Pastry or Mike’s serves a better cannoli. Before your food coma sets in, make sure to stop by historic Paul Revere’s home, and follow the Freedom Trail to Old North Church and Copp’s Hill Burying Ground. Take a rest in a cafe on Hanover street and observe the quirky, European character of the North End.Read more
