The Highliner Hotel
Wonderful room, cool decor and such a neat building. The bed was super comfortable and the space to hang out in the room was relaxing. Location is perfect for browsing the shops and eating out. Using text to communicate with the concierge was also very convenient and easy.

Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Boston - Peabody by IHG
For being outside of the city of Boston, this was a good location. I would stay again if necessary. Not convenient if driving a non Tesla electric car.
