    Looking at hotels in the theater district/beacon hill area. Our first time in Boston, so is it a good spot between tourist stops and fenway? We can walk a few miles to/from the show if need be.

    Just booked room at Hotel Commonwealth. Looks like they are charging a bit more that weekend than normal but I might just be bad at math.

    Just booked The Commonwealth from Thursday to Monday....Looks nice

    It's beautiful. You're in for a treat!
    Really? Great..close to venue too
    Yeah -- classy place. Me and my wife love it there. Usually way too expensive during peak times, but a really elegant place to stay.

    I got an Airbnb for my self and my family (2 adults and 3 kids) for $500 for 2 nights. We are going to make a family weekend of it and mommy gets to see a concert too! The place is supposed to be just "steps from Fenway". Very excited! It'll be very nice to have the convenience of a kitchen and space to stretch out so close by. I'm hoping I'll be safe to walk back after by myself. :confounded:

    I booked a two-bedroom suite (split between 2 couples) at the Hotel Buckminster - a 2 min walk from Fenway for $379

    Our crew is there as well.
  • We booked a fenway room at the hotel commonwealth. Worth the $ for a sneak peek of the sound check and a view of the merchant lines. Staying Fri-Mon. $1500.

    How about the elephant in the room. What about parking? As I and my wife will be driving in and then out after the show to my friend's house out of town.

    Good question and one i would like to know.

    Where is a good place to park, that's not too far to walk to Fenway, but is also a easy route back out to the Mass. TP?

    Totally fine. Absolutely a safe area. At least act like you know where you're going and nobody will bother you.

    Booked the Sheraton Boston in back bay for $230 a night through a trip advisor special.

    Thanks for the info, just booked the same. Looks like a great location, convenient to Fenway as well as the sightseeing spots.

    During Red Sox games the Sheraton Boston in back bay always had parking for $15-20. Might be worth giving them a call at some point and see if they offer the same during concerts. About a 10 minute walk to Fenway and easy access to Mass pike.

    I've used the Prudential Center Garage for games at Fenway before. 10-15 min walk, close to the highway. Usually runs specials during games, not sure about concerts.

  • Garage at 100 Clarendon is about a 20 minute walk but the prices are good and it has a ramp directly on to the Pike westbound.

    Also the garage at 101 Clarendon is great for easy on/easy off the Mass Pike. This one is a little further away from Fenway but right in Copley Square. Prob 20-25 min walk or a short green line ride from the show.

  • If you're driving to Boston, might be worth parking outside the city at a T stop and take the T in

    That is what I am doing and if your lucky you can get a free shuttle from your Hotel to the T.
