Recommended Hotel: Residence Inn
Why: Indoor Pool, On-Site Restaurant, Free Breakfast

The top hotel near Fenway Park and the Fenway T station is the Residence Inn. This hotel has great amenities including a gym, indoor pool, and free hot breakfast. WiFi and wired internet access are available for free in all guest rooms. The average room rate is $201 per night. The main drawback is the high cost of parking at $45/night, but you’ll need to pay for parking at most hotels in this area. Guests frequently compliment the friendly staff who go above and beyond to make guests comfortable. The on-site restaurant Bar Louie serves great burgers. We recommend the Residence Inn to people visiting Boston to see a Red Sox game.

About the Fenway Neighborhood

Who is best for this location?

Baseball fans of all ages, young couples looking to enjoy Boston nightlife

The Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood sits just south of the Charles River and is easily accessible from the Boston College line of the T. It’s a transit hub where people often need to change trains or buses to get across Boston. It’s the home of Fenway Park and Boston University. As such, many students live in this neighborhood and it is an area known for excellent bars.

Bleacher Bar is actually underneath the bleachers at Fenway Park that overlooks the field at ground level; they serve great sandwiches and pretzels. The Lower Depths is a great spot to sample local craft beers. If you’re in the mood for craft cocktails the best spot is The Hawthorne. To skip the bar scene and focus on food in a family-friendly setting, try Blaze Fast Fire’d Pizza or El Pelon Taqueria.

The main attraction in the area is Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. You can visit the ballpark for a game and/or for a walking tour where you get up close to the legendary Green Monster.
