Boston is packed with history, quaint streets, peaceful parks, and world-class dining. While most centrally located hotels are meant for business travelers, there are a handful of great options for leisure travelers searching for spacious rooms and a warm, welcoming ambiance. Among our favorites is Boston Park Plaza.  

What You Need to Know

The Look of Boston Park Plaza

It's All in the Details

Boston Park Plaza's charming exterior features bricks, arched windows, and a black-and-white marquee canopy that beacons guests inside. Once you enter the lobby, you'll find plenty of cozy nooks for reading and relaxing. 

The nearby sitting areas are done up with bright pops of red mixed with geometric patterns. If you're craving peace and quiet, head to the on-site library, which is stocked with books, oversized leather chairs, and dark woods for a cozy, homey feel. 

The Vibe at Boston Park Plaza

Boston Park Plaza combines historic charm, modern luxury, and hospitable service. Once you step inside, you'll feel worlds away from the bustling Boston streets. The walkway leading up to the front desk is warm and inviting, just like the employees.

Many guests don't mind the limited on-site activities since they're busy exploring the city independently. Instead, they prefer a relaxing oasis — plus somewhere they can grab a drink at the bar before getting ready for the evening. 

Who Will Love Boston Park Plaza

Business travelers and those with older children in tow will enjoy Boston Park Plaza the most. The hotel has 35 meeting rooms and a spacious business center. Meanwhile, leisure travelers will appreciate the hotel's central location near landmarks like Beacon Hill, the Old North Church, and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library.
