There is no better place to be than Boston in the summer. The City provides all the components that can make your visit to Boston memorable. Boston is rich with history, providing visitors to the city with an array of choices to satisfy everyone’s interests. My personal favorite is Fenway Park, the ballpark of the Boston Red Sox baseball club since it opened in 1912. Fenway Park the oldest Major League Baseball stadium currently in use, and the scene of many notable baseball moments. Boston is also regarded as a “walking city”, with the Freedom Trail, the Boston Common, the Public Garden, and the North End, all within walking distance from the Boston Harbor Hotel.

Our hotel is an idyllic place to experience all that Boston offers. Perfectly situated, the hotel has the city’s most breathtaking views of Boston harbor, and the beautiful Rose Kennedy Greenway is just a few steps from our front door. The summer nights are filled with music and movies, Tuesday through Friday, as the hotel and the Rowes Wharf Sea Grille, bring you the Summer in the City Entertainment Series.

So, whether you are traveling to the city on vacation or business, the Boston Harbor Hotel can provide you with an experience you will never forget.

Best regards,
Paul J. Jacques
General Manager
