Hotels near Logan Airport - BOS, Boston

Winthrop was a great town! We walked to the yacht clubs and Deer Island - enjoyed the beach front, picking up shells and clams, and the local restaurants had some pretty good food! Try D'Parma and Woody's! Bus transportation was great (except on Sunday) so we didn't need a rental to get anywhere we wanted.

We didn't visit Chelsea during the day, just got some take out food one of the nights (there are options not too far from the hotel). For what we saw around the hotel, it didn't strike me as a particularly beautiful area, but it's a short drive to Boston, and very close to the airport (but we didn't hear any plane noise.) We didnt explore public transportation options to Boston, but my impession is that can be a hustle. However it'ss close to Boston, so if you have a car is a short drive and my guess is that a taxi or Uber should be affordable too.

I loved everything about the hotel. Unfortunately, they charge for parking. This was not disclosed when I booked it and when my husband saw the pending charge on the credit card, I was told it would come off because it was already part of the fee through booking.com. While $15 will not break the bank, in the future I would probably choose another hotel based on principle. I don't appreciate surprise expenses when I travel.

We were not expecting the amount of weekend traffic in the city. We ended up using Lyft and kept the car in the hotel garage. The hop on/off trolley is a great way to get around and learn some history. We were rather startled by the smell of pot that permeated the city.

Our flight was really late, so didn't get to enjoy this lovely place and neighborhood as much as I would've liked. Did get to walk over to the water and see planes go in and out. And saw a few boats. Was able to walk to a restaurant downtown to pick up dinner at 10pm. Bout a 10 min walk. Nice downtown.

The great staff. The super clean room. The large breakfast dining area. It was nice being able to move around to get our breakfast & to have plenty of seating available. We didn't have a chance to explore Chelsea, as we needed to spend our 1 day there driving to Ellsworth, Maine & back. So we were only in Chelsea 2 nights. But for 2 across country, tired train travelers (from LA to Boston), this Hampton Inn was terrific. Oh - the beds were super comfortable too!
