The Restaurant at Boston Harbor Hotel

"One of the best hotels in Boston faces the harbor and the Rose Kennedy Greenway, but the fantastic location is just one reason to stay here: Others include the superb service, a great pool and spa, excellent restaurants, and plush, luxurious rooms"

"The excellent on-site restaurant, Meritage Restaurant + Wine Bar, offers some of the city's best views of Boston Harbor and a unique Vineyard to Table concept, and a menu that pairs dishes with appropriate vintages"

"Once industrial, this renovated neighborhood now houses artist studios and the latest enterprises of the city’s celeb chefs, from Barbara Lynch’s cocktail bar, Drink, to Ming Tsai’s Asian-fusion restaurant, Blue Dragon"

"For a slightly cheaper luxury alternative, the Langham Hotel is a nearby historic option with a Chinese-inspired spa and a swanky restaurant inside of the old Federal Reserve Bank"

"The excellent Meritage restaurant offers modern global cuisine"
