Fodor's Expert Review Boston Marriott Long Wharf

296 State St., Boston, Massachusetts, 02109, USA

Families favor this spot that looks like a big brick ship docked in Boston Harbor for its proximity to the New England Aquarium, Faneuil Hall Marketplace, and the North End. Guest rooms open to a five-story atrium, and some have views of the park, harbor, or aquarium. Clean-freak alert: plush feather duvets on the beds are changed every night. The Marriott's swimming pool overlooks the harbor, plus there's a huge gym with state-of-the-art cardio, Peloton bikes, and weight equipment.

PROS

  • beautiful upper-level swimming pool with harbor views
  • centrally located for family interests
  • free Wi-Fi

CONS

  • surrounding area is packed with tourists
  • far from the Back Bay
  • parking is difficult to find
