    Are those hotel prices a NIGHTLY rate or for all three nights???
    My guess it's the former.

    Weird, you'd think Manhattan would be like the worst. I stayed across the street from MSG in 2016 for those 2 shows and it was around $150 a night. The room was fine.

    Boston prices are always absurd. Already high now. 
    And they won't come down anytime soon. Tuesday may be cheaper than Sunday but it won't be cheap by any stretch of the imagination.

    They definitely won't be coming down, its college move in weekend. The hotels have the prices jacked up for the parents of the incoming freshmen.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    For any Starwood folks out there, the W Seattle is currently available on cash & points ($110 + 6k)...that's really good value on the points


    I appreciate the tip.  You are right about the good value.  I value SPG points at about .02 cents each so that's like getting the room for $220.00 vs the rack rate of $374.00.  I'll see you there!

    Check out airbnb and VRBO now!!!!  I already booked.  If you're lucky you can find something about half the price of hotels.  I'm 1.2 miles from fenway with a reserved parking spot.

    Any thoughts on additional Seattle adds?  I doubt they add a 3rd Safeco show but with loads of PJ fans in town from Wednesday on, I could see a Friday or potentially a Saturday show added.  Maybe even a different venue like the Key?

    I booked an Airbnb as well. 20 min walk from Fenway. It is a whole house. 1400 sq ft. Cost me 350$ a night but for that price I would get 2 double beds and 190 sq ft at a hotel. Bringing along my 3 kids and my wife and her mother. Going to be a great vacation!

    that's a great deal Joe!

    I booked two nights in Chicago for $526 after all the taxes and fees...650 square foot one bedroom king suite right in the magnificent mile.

    Mine was in CAD to btw and I needed a 2 plus bedroom because of the family coming. Their are some great deals on 1 bedrooms near the T. Do not be scared of using Airbnb. I have had great success in the past.

    Airbnb is great. We rented a house boat in Amsterdam 2014 and it worked out really well.

    Anyone have an opinion on the Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor? 15,000 points a night isn't bad considering how much the actual price is. 

    FYI - Chase Sapphire has 50K point sign up bonus (for those who haven't gotten it in last 24 months) so you can get 3 free nights at either Hyatt when transferring the points. Plenty of time to get the card, meet the spending requirements and book there.
