Omni Parker House or Lenox? Help me decide Foderites!
 
The Omni is in such a historic area - and I would love to walk out of the front door and see history immediately. It's also immediately at both the Green and Red lines (Park Place & Govt. Center).

The Lenox looks more like a "romantic" hotel. It's in the Backbay area, so more happening at night.

I'm 22, will be with my girlfriend and we aren't big on clubs. I've been to Boston many times, this will be her first.

What do you all think I should pick?

Pick the Omni, they need the business more. I would choose the Lenox. Boston is so small that you are pretty close to most areas.

The Lenox...

Lenox....Omni has micro small European rooms that you may get stuck in. All of Boston is an historic area!

We recently stayed at the Omni ---and loved it!! I don't know whether we just lucked out, but our room was a very good size and charming.

The hotel itself has such history...and I loved walking out the doors and looking across to the old city hall.

The location is great ---just around the corner from Quincy Market, Boston Common and Filene's basement!! (I was able to make one last dash for bargains minutes before our taxi arrived for departure.)Also so easy to walk to and from the North End for restaurants, the theatre district...anywhere really.

I will never forget our "Omni" experience!
