Hi guys,
I still haven't booked our hotel for our August Boston vacation. We've never been there and are doing kid-centric touristy things. No car. Plan to ride the T/buses everywhere.
When we were in Chicago we stayed at the marvelous Seneca per the recommendations on this board and could not have been more thrilled with location and amenities (bedroom with a door so DD could go to bed on time and DH could stay up and hang out). Having the kitchen was nice so DD and I could do cereal and milk without waking up DH, but not a necessity, esp if there is a free continental breakfast or someplace we could walk to.
So our keys are:
clean
bedroom with a door
location close to transportation easy so DD can walk and get us to all the major touristy stuff like kids museums, USS Constitution, Freedom Trail, etc.
Any other Boston recommendations you guys have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to you guys our Chicago vacation rocked and convinced us to do this. I saw another thread about riding the swans and frog pond, so we'll do that. DD loves American Girl, so we'd like to do that, but I don't know if we'd need a car for that. Help please!
What about the Boston Hotel Buckminster? It looks like it might meet my recs, but I would love suggestions and am not familiar with locations there. Thanks!
