Boston Hotels

[mr moneypenny]

Wherever I go, I look for a Springhill Suites first because they are reasonable and very consistent.

Keep in mind there are several universities in Boston with students coming back to campus. Book the hotel early (and expect to pay closer to $500).

I have family picking me up at the cruise port in mid-September.  Looking for a safe area 3 - 4 stars outside Boston.  They will be driving up from Virginia and need a place to sleep but nothing fancy.  Any recommendations?

3/4 stars more on the side of 3 take a look at the Marriott Quincy. It's a full service hotel, but nothing fancy. Sometimes its in the low to mid $100s, sometimes it can be expensive for what it is. But never as expensive as downtown Boston.

September is wicked expensive in the Boston area.  Coming from the south, I expect they will arrive via the Mass Turnpike, it is almost always faster than I-95.  Since they aren't picking you up first thing in the morning, I'd look for lodging between Hartford, CT and Sturbridge Mass to get the best combo of rates and convenience
