Fodor's Expert Review Newbury Guest House

Located in the heart of Boston's most fashionable shopping street, a homey feel and personalized service are at the soul of this elegant and historic 1882 brownstone, which features natural pine flooring, blue Victorian furnishings, and prints from the Museum of Fine Arts. Guest rooms have a modern look, with some boasting bay windows and others with decorative fireplaces. Limited parking is available for $30 and requires a reservation. Check out the tiny French bistro, La Voile, downstairs.
