Other hotels

The following web sites provide extensive information on hotels, transportation, and tourist attractions in Boston.

• mybostonwedding.com
• bostonusa.com
• boston-online.com
• tripadvisor.com (search for Boston, MA)

We recommend you visit the one of the web sites above and book your accommodations as soon as possible. Please see our Maps and Directions page to view sample hotels and their proximity to the wedding events.

The two hotels closest to the church and reception venue are the Boston Harbor Hotel and the Marriott Long Wharf.

Due to the great differences in budgets and individual preferences, we will not be reserving a "block of rooms" at any one hotel. Boston has many different hotels in varying price ranges - something to satisfy everyone.

Be sure to look for the words "downtown Boston" when selecting a hotel. Any downtown Boston hotel should be accessible to the extensive subway system (aka the "T").

Don’t be fooled by websites that promise “cheap Boston hotels” and then send you 10 miles out to places like Woburn, Waltham or Burlington.  Even though the distance may appear small between these cities and downtown Boston, the actual commute is difficult at best, and probably impossible for anyone not familiar with the territory.
