Seaport Hotel & World Trade Center

1 Seaport Lane sits steps from the Boston Harborwalk. Its position on the water gives the building a prominence that the landlocked hotels of the Financial District cannot match.

While the hotel leans into its corporate function with extensive meeting rooms, it is a smarter choice than the nearby inland glass towers for those who prioritize the water. The walk to the Institute of Contemporary Art takes fifteen minutes, but you are at the edge of the harbor the moment you step outside. It makes the trade-off worth it; you sacrifice proximity to the city center to be closer to the harbor than any of the hotel's downtown counterparts.
