Boston & Cambridge lodgings welcome families with lots of things to do for kids

Walkable, historic Boston is a great place for family vacations, and there’s no better launching pad than the Seaport Hotel, perfectly situated in the heart of the exciting Seaport District. The hotel’s spacious rooms and suites, with super harbor and city views, mean lots of room to stretch out and plan your busy days, from hiking the Freedom Trail to visiting the nearby Boston Children’s Museum and Tea Party Ships & Museum. Explore this vibrant neighborhood on one of the hotel’s complimentary bikes. Come back for dinner on the open-air terrace at TAMO Bistro + Bar. Ask about the First Mate’s Club, providing a year-round scavenger hunt and amenities for kids, starting with a toy they can select from Seaport’s Treasure Chest upon arrival.

Just 15 miles from Boston, The Inn at Heritage Park, steps away from the battle green where the War for Independence began and other historic sites, boasts that its hospitality is truly revolutionary. See for yourself when you and your family check into a spacious and elegant room or suite. Or ask about the Pint-Sized Patriots Package, where the kids get tricorne hats, slippers and robes (plus milk and cookies!). Whether you’re riding complimentary bikes on the much-loved rail trail, hiking around Walden Pond, picking apples at an orchard or touring Louisa May Alcott’s home, you will love your Lexington area experience – and the modern amenities and comforts of this historic and multiple award-winning inn.
