RECOMMENDATIONS
MORNINGBoston is America's Walking City and there is no better way to start off the day than a stroll along Boston's Harborwalk. Exiting the waterfront side of the hotel will immediately place you on this 42 mile public walkway network. Just over the Congress Street bridge you will find the Flour Bakery & Cafe where you enjoy number of delightful pastries or their world famous sticky buns. Continuing along the waterfront you will encounter the stunning Institute of Contemporary Art. This visionary museum captures the stimulation of contemporary culture and embodies the excitement of our revitalized waterfront area. |
AFTERNOONWander around the cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill. This historic residential neighborhood is packed with quaint boutiques and antique shops and is known locally as Antiques Row. Beginning at Cambridge Street, follow Charles Street through Beacon Hill and make a left onto Mt Vernon Street to visit Louisburg Square, home of many notable Bostonians past and present. Take a right onto Willow Street to Acorn Street, in my opinion one of the loveliest streets in America. Making your way back to Charles Street, stop off at one of Boston's best-loved lunch destinations, the Beacon Hill Bistro, for a croque monsieur. At the end of Charles Street is Boston's Public Garden, the first public botanical garden in the United States. |
EVENINGFor a perfect evening out in Boston, your options are endless. Choose from a memorable performance by the Boston Pops at Symphony Hall, a Red Sox game at historic Fenway Park or a delectable evening in Boston's North End for an Italian feast. |
LOCAL CULTUREDRIVINGAs Boston is America's walking city, pedestrians tend to jay-walk. You are better off leaving your car parked and instead take a taxi or limousine, or walk or ride the T (our subway system) to your destination. GRATUITIESBoston is a tipping city. Gratuities are graciously accepted by all service individuals. WeatherBoston's weather can vary greatly from day to day. You can be in your shirt-sleeves one day and need a hat and gloves the next, so pack with this in mind and keep an eye on the weather forecast. |
DID YOU KNOW ?John Hancock Weather BeaconThe weather beacon at the top of the Berkeley Building (old John Hancock Building) has a rhyme to help decipher the colors: steady blue, clear view; flashing blue, clouds due; steady red, rain ahead; flashing red, snow. But during baseball season, flashing red means that a Red Sox home game was called off because of the weather. Massachusetts State HouseSigns on approaching highways indicating the distance to Boston aren't measuring the miles to the city limits but to the State House dome. The dome is gilded in 23.5kt gold leaf. Molasses flood of 1919A storage tank exploded in the North End on January 15, 1919, sending pieces of metal and a 2.3-million-gallon wave of molasses crashing through the streets, destroying homes and buildings and killing 21 people. Some Bostonians claim that on a hot day you can still smell the molasses. Oliver R SmootThe Smoot is a non-standard unit of length used to measure only one item in Boston, the Harvard Bridge on Massachusetts Avenue connecting Boston and Cambridge. Fraternity pledge Oliver Smoot was rolled head over heels across the bridge to measure 364.4 Smoots (his height, 5ft 7in) plus one ear. |
WHAT TO PACKCameraWith so many historic sights and architectural treasures in Boston, don't forget to bring your camera. Comfy shoesBoston is America's Walking City; so always bring a comfortable pair of walking shoes. Dining attireBoston's dining scene is exciting but fairly casual. At most restaurants, casual-business attire is perfectly acceptable. Warm coatIf you're coming in the fall or winter months, you should bring a warm jacket or coat as you never know one day to the next how much colder it may get. |
