Boston Symphony Hall

First-timers in Boston may want to stay in the downtown/waterfront area as you’ll be within very close quarters of most of the famous landmarks and tourist attractions. The area is great for its picturesque walks and abundance of bars and restaurants to choose from. Plus, the waterfront’s good range of hotels mean you should be able to find one that suits your budget.

If you’re looking to immerse yourself in Boston’s history, try staying in or around Beacon Hill and Back Bay. Known for their redbrick paths and Victorian townhouses, staying here will be more expensive, but it is an amazing place to spend time in.
