Most hotels are located in downtown neighborhoods such as the Downtown/Waterfront area, Fenway, Back Bay, West End, Beacon Hill, and Seaport/South Boston Waterfront. There are also hotels at Boston Logan Airport, which are just a 7-minute water taxi ride from the city center.

The cheapest time to visit Boston is in the winter, and the most popular time is during the summer.
