"The Harborside's location, near Faneuil Hall Marketplace and right alongside the Rose Kennedy Greenway, sounds expensive, but it's actually an affordable alternative."

"With rates that are considerably lower than most Waterfront hotels... this hotel with an understated charm is an exceptional value."

For a great view, request a room overlooking the city; for a quieter stay, book a room that faces the interior atrium.

"The old-school elegant Taj is doing its best to win over the old Ritz fans... as well as woo new guests, with discounted weekend rates and a soft renovation."

"Bought from the Ritz-Carlton in 2007, the Taj Boston holds on to the Ritz' elegant look, but also offers some superb perks, like chenille bathrobes and free rides in the house Jaguar."
