Hotels near Logan Airport - BOS, Boston

Winthrop was a great town! We walked to the yacht clubs and Deer Island - enjoyed the beach front, picking up shells and clams, and the local restaurants had some pretty good food! Try D'Parma and Woody's! Bus transportation was great (except on Sunday) so we didn't need a rental to get anywhere we wanted.

Boston: Very interesting city, beautiful old buildings blended with the modern high-rise buildings made for a tasteful skyline and lots of information is available on the history of the city. Roof-top cocktail bars in the Seaport area are great for a younger vibe and we managed to take some nice pics overlooking the harbour. We really enjoyed the narrated bus tours especially the Duck-boat which drove into the Charles River, such a unique experience! The Boston Tea- Party museum, was also great fun and the bakery/tea room was awesome. The food options were great all round, we enjoy all types of food and there was plenty choice. We had good experiences - The Pearl Chinese restaurant was walking distance from our hotel/ very tasty dishes, the staff were very helpful in assisting us choose dishes to share for 4 people. We also enjoyed a Mexican themed pop-up restaurant in Boston Common with live music playing on the long-weekend early October. The Barking Crab is a must visit also in the Seaport area - fantastic food and service, great vibe. Harvard University grounds and Art Museum also great and interesting visit. Aswell as the Quincy Market. The city tour buses were great fun and easy to use to get around town.

We didn't visit Chelsea during the day, just got some take out food one of the nights (there are options not too far from the hotel). For what we saw around the hotel, it didn't strike me as a particularly beautiful area, but it's a short drive to Boston, and very close to the airport (but we didn't hear any plane noise.) We didnt explore public transportation options to Boston, but my impession is that can be a hustle. However it'ss close to Boston, so if you have a car is a short drive and my guess is that a taxi or Uber should be affordable too.

I loved everything about the hotel. Unfortunately, they charge for parking. This was not disclosed when I booked it and when my husband saw the pending charge on the credit card, I was told it would come off because it was already part of the fee through booking.com. While $15 will not break the bank, in the future I would probably choose another hotel based on principle. I don't appreciate surprise expenses when I travel.

Our flight was really late, so didn't get to enjoy this lovely place and neighborhood as much as I would've liked. Did get to walk over to the water and see planes go in and out. And saw a few boats. Was able to walk to a restaurant downtown to pick up dinner at 10pm. Bout a 10 min walk. Nice downtown.

We had a great time following the Freedom Trail. The Fine Arts Museum was excellent. We spent an entire day finding Atlas Obscura sites, so much fun! We bought a week-long transit pass and used it extensively - Boston's transit is great (I didn't know that Boston's subway is the oldest in the country - check out the Park Street T station for an interesting mural about that). We were only in Boston for a week and were sad to leave. Didn't get to see any sporting events or the Gardner Museum. We could have used at least another week.
