Boston Hotel Tips by vivalasteph

This large hotel is just a block from the Public Garden and has a grand lobby, with many restaurants and shops to keep you busy. It is a perfect location for a Boston visit, with many attractions within walking distance.

Helpful staff and nice large rooms, some with amazing city views.

Unique Qualities: There are many conference rooms, and some activity on most weekends, both in the hotel, and at the Castle across the street.

I spent a night here in January, and was surprised and amused to find a Fetish Festival in full swing! It was very easy to tell the tourists from the attendees, as men and women strolled by in head to toe leather, fishnet stockings and bustiers, kilts, and a few people being led on leashes. Every elevator ride was a riot!
