Often called the "Athens of America," downtown Boston is home to some of our country's most important historical sites. It's a great walking city, full of unique neighborhoods and lush, green parks. Depending on your mood, you can take in the bustle of the famous Quincy Market and the open-air Haymarket, dine on hot dogs or haute cuisine, join the Boston marathon, walk the Freedom Trail, listen to the sounds of the Boston Pops or catch a Red Sox game. Shoppers rave as much about Filene's Basement as they do about the fashionable boutiques on Newbury Street. And the weather? Locals like to say that autumn in Boston is like "heaven on earth," followed by a mild winter, a spring exuberant with daffodils, tulips and lilacs, and a warm, sunny summer.
Bordering the Charles River Reservation, just across the river from downtown Boston, Hotel Marlowe provides easy access to this great city over the Longfellow Bridge. Beacon Hill and the city's financial district are just minutes away. Borrow one of our bicycles and explore Boston on two wheels, or paddle the river in one of our kayaks-also free-and admire the Boston skyline.
