Why We Like It
Fodor's Expert Review
For extended-stay hotels, the Element is a great option. Featuring sustainable design and eco-friendly practices, the hotel has a great location in Boston's Seaport neighborhood, surrounded by endless restaurants and entertainment opportunities. You'll spot plenty of business people and conventioneers in the area, who flock to the area thanks to its proximity to several downtown companies and the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.
