So my buddy and I bought our tickets without researching hotels prices in boston, Sheesh!!! They are expensive! we can get a round trip flight for less than one night at a hotel. We are going to sessions A & B. Any recommendations for hotels?
Hotels in Boston are absurdly expensive. Even no-frills places off the beaten path like the Constitution Inn in the Charlestown Navy Yard can be around $200/night on weekends. Good luck.
Use Priceline to name your own price and there's a really good chance that you'll find something. Bid on only hotels 3.5 stars or higher in these areas and there's a really good chance you'll find something that's decent, below $150 a night, and very convenient to where you're going (especially if you find something in the Seaport District): 1 Beacon Hill 2 Boston Common - Theater District 6 Copley Square - Back Bay 8 Downtown Boston - Harbor Front 15 Seaport District - Convention Center Alternate sites: Hotwire, Kayak. In most cases, if you're paying straight through the hotel sites, you're doing it wrong.
I'm staying at the Hyatt on Saturday after session B. Room was $116 and included complimentary parking.
Priceline is your friend. Check betterbidding.com to see what hotels they use. I've never spent over $125 even on marathon weekend
Don't do this. The T sucks and there's nothing worse than a long train ride when you're drunk. You've already paid for flights and tickets to two sessions. Pony up the extra cash to stay somewhere that doesn't suck
