The Harborside Inn Cafe & Lounge has a charm anchored throughout by a modern maritime theme that includes a generous use of teak and classic maps of Boston’s waterfront. Rates are considerably lower than most Waterfront hotels—as low as $119 in the off-season—making this an exceptional value. Many of the snug rooms have windows overlooking an interior atrium, with other rooms and common areas featuring exposed brick and views of Downtown Boston. Hotel amenities include flat screen TVs, surround-sound stereos, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Located steps from Faneuil Hall, Quincy Market, and the North End, The Harborside Inn recently added 18 rooms, a bar and lounge, and a Starbucks cafe. The brand-new 3,000 square-foot bar and lounge boast eight flat screens, state-of-the-art sound, lighting, audio-visual capabilities, the Starbucks café, and a dance floor, making Harborside Inn Café and Lounge a turnkey solution for all aspects of entertaining. Outside caterers, DJs, and bands are available for large parties. Looking for one of Boston’s best new spots? Look no further. $$
