Club Quarters Hotel Faneuil Hall, Boston
Location, location, location. Yep 5 stars. Parking nearby. Faneuil hall. Freedom trail. Nearby. Food. The best was nearby. Don’t rent a car in Boston. Instead spend the $200/day rental on food an other amenities. Best hotel for one of the most charming cities in the world

Hyatt Regency Boston
Great location, comfortable and clean room! The only inconvenience is that from the street entrance you have to take an elevator to the lobby and then a different elevator to the hotel room. A little unusual. Otherwise a great stay.

Temple Place Suites
It was a great stay, had everything we needed to be comfortable. Fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds. We didn’t have a car so I’m unsure of the parking situation but Uber pickup was easy! And it’s located in front of a bus stop for those who will use it.
