The Best Hotels with Balconies in Boston

Relax on your balcony and enjoy the view over historic Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market at the Bostonian Boston hotel. Rooms come in soothing earth tones, with plush sofas and deep carpeting. Several have wood-burning fireplaces, and those without balconies have full-length windows. It’s an easy walk to the harborfront, the gold-domed State House and one of the classiest neighborhoods: Beacon Hill.

This charming base occupies a neoclassical building that, from 1851 to 1990, was the Charles Street Jail. The decor reflects this throughout: bars on windows and mosaic tiles depicting cells and prisoners in black striped garb. Guest rooms are no hardship, though, with teak flooring, architect-designed furnishings and full-length windows overlooking Beacon Hill and the Charles River. Suites have private year-round balconies with all-encompassing views over the city.
