Fenway Park Hotels

BOSTON: BOUTIQUES, BRIDGES, BASEBALL, AND BEANS

"Beantown" has upscale and student-scale shops, interesting bridges over the Charles River, the beloved Red Sox, and a modernized theater district. And now the cuisine is WAY more than baked beans and cod!

Boston may be old and historic and Brahmin-fussy, but with half a million students infused into the mix each year, it has to stay young. So, our boutiques are trendy, our Red Sox and Fenway Park are the best in sports, our theater district now has dorms above a stage, and there's ballet in the old opera house. We dance over the Charles River, which has some bridges with funky traditions, and our food is way better than baked beans and cod. You want protests? Is the original Tea Party good enough?
