Boston Hotel Suggestions.
Hi all
I am looking at going to Boston sometime in either May or June of this year and I am doing some research right now. As part of this research I am looking into hotels and rates. I the past I have done very well using Priceline, as hoping to use them again to get a great deal. Only thing is I am not sure which zones I should be looking at when bidding for a hotel. I am looking for something that is close to the major site or least or easy to get by means of public transportation. Below is a list of Priceline zones that I was thinking of bidding in. Boston Harbor Front – Aquarium Boston Waterfront - Convention Center Copley Square - Theatre District Quincy Market - Faneuil Hall – Financial I was hoping that someone could give the pros and cons of the zones. Thanks in advance Michael |

Thanks in advance Michael Michael - Boston is a compact town, and those zones are all walking distance from one another, and accessible by subway or ground trans. I guess if you like a view, there are hotels in each that can provide that. If you want to be part of that view, and it's your first time in Boston, then Faneuil Hall/Aquarium will put you in proximity to all the main tourist goodies. Copley Sq won't disappoint either, but the Convention Center might if you like nightlife, though it is close to the North End and it's historical sites and the Italian section. You can't go wrong in downtown, so go by price, throw a dart, whatever. If you're a foodie, consider Cambridge, which has a wealth of ethnic and seafood restaurants, and Harvard is a great place to visit. Keith Sorry, I was thinking of town hall when I said the convention center was close to the North End. Neither convention center is very close to the main sites of interest.

I used Priceline and got the Westin in the Copley Square area. It was great
and especially convenient to the symphony. Don't think you can go wrong with any of the areas you OP'd. Metro pass will cost $9/day or $15/week.....do the math. s wrote in message ...
