Maybe people can share pricing or deals if some folks haven’t booked yet. 

I booked Marriott Copley back in February, but was browsing to see if I could get a better deal. I ended up booking the Ritz for $267/night Government rate. That’s what I would have paid at the Marriott! Anyone know if i can walk to Fenway from there? Maybe Eddie and the gang will be staying there. I can put in some song requests and Have a drink with them and shoot the shit.

    You could walk from there. Prob 45-60 minutes but it’s a nice walk through the city.

    I have tons of Hyatt points so always stay there. Anyone have any experience with the Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor? Seems like an OK spot with a little ferry ride to get to town. The other Hyatt isn't taking points right now.

    Airbnb in east Boston. Going with my wife 3 kids and mother in law. We are making a 6 day trip out of it and my mother in law is kind enough to watch our kids while we go and enjoy the show. God lover her!

    We're staying in Coolidge Corner. We can walk back in a pinch, but the hotel's also right at a T stop.

    Hotel rates are higher now than when I booked. The Marriotts in Cambridge (Kendall Square) look to be still pretty reasonable for Boston (265/ night). I'd consider that walkable -- but I walk a lot.

    I'd suggest looking at places out along the green line.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Missing out on getting a Tambo!
    You could put the three kids on top of one another's shoulders and make a sign that says ''e drove 6 hours to get a Tambo!"

    LOL! That 6 hour drive is going to be about 12 hours or so after all the pee breaks.

    I considered both the Coolidge Corner location and the Cambridge Marriot as well.  Ending up lucking into an airbnb instead.  The Cambridge walk may have been a pain in the ass post show, but I think either location would work for those still looking.
