Often the hardest part about planning a weekend getaway to Boston is identifying the best combination of an affordable hotel in a good location with access to Boston’s restaurant and tourism destinations. Thankfully the public transit in Boston helps make getting around easier and as a result offers up a variety of neighborhoods that can match most any traveler’s expectations.
Below are the top locations, hotels, and B&B options that will make for a romantic getaway in Boston.
There are four bed and breakfast accommodations in Boston near the T light rail service. Both the Mary Prentiss Inn and the Cambridge House offer guests free parking, and affordable rates relative to other nearby Boston hotel chains. Each are situated North of Harvard in Cambridge. They make a great jump off point for exploring Boston and the commute into downtown is under 15 minutes on the red line.
If you are coming to Boston for a getaway and traveling from the North the Salem Inn is a few blocks from the nearby MBTA train with a final destination at North Station in Downtown. Salem offers up cute main street shopping destinations and restaurants.
If a bed and breakfast isn’t your style two hotels stand out for their location and romantic appeal. The EnVision hotel is a boutique hotel situated in Mission Hill. This location will appeal to younger couples who still want some nightlife associated with their romantic getaway. The EnVision hotel is only one block away from the Green T line that will have you into Boston in under 15 minutes. For couples who would prefer a hotel downtown we suggest looking into the InterContential in downtown along the Greenway. This hotel has it all in terms of amenities and will certain impress a loved one. It is easy to walk to the T station, or MBTA station, or catch a express bus to the airport.
