Boston's Financial District hotels offer top convenience for business travelers seeking central downtown accommodations, but may not seem like the obvious choice if you're visiting Boston for a vacation.
However, if you will be here for the weekend when most business travelers check out, you may find excellent deals on rates, and you can't beat the location.
Bordered by Boston's Waterfront, Theatre District, Freedom Trail, and Faneuil Hall Marketplace, the Financial District gives you easy access to some of our top attractions and restaurants.
If you fly into Boston Logan Airport, getting to most of these hotels is easy assuming your bag has wheels: just hop on a water taxi to Downtown, and then walk to your hotel.
Here are our top recommended Financial District hotels, in a variety of price ranges. You'll find everything from sophisticated elegance in iconic historic buildings to sleek decor and waterfront locations.

The InterContinental's waterfront location can't be beat: the hotel overlooks Fort Point Channel and beyond that, the Harbor on one side. On the other side, it borders the lush Rose Kennedy Greenway, putting about a 2-minute walk from the Financial District.

The Langham Boston
250 Franklin Street, Boston's Financial District
An extensive 2-year, $200 million dollar renovation has left The Langham Boston more luxurious and more gorgeous than ever.
Located in an ornate Renaissance Revival building overlooking the lushly landscaped Norman Levanthal Park at Post Office Square in the heart of Boston's Financial District, the Langham offers numerous amenities for both business and leisure travelers.

For a special visit, reserve one of the 2-floor lofts or even the Chairman's Suite, complete with a grand piano and a dining room with seating for eight.
And don't be surprised when you see the Langham Hotel Boston on all the latest "10 Best Boston Hotels" lists.
The Dagny Boston
This is not your usual Hilton, despite its Financial District location and popularity with executives who love the spacious rooms, high ceilings, and posh public spaces.
Located in a 1928 Art Deco skyscraper, The Dagny Boston doubles as a business hotel during the week, and a favorite of savvy leisure visitors during weekends when you can sometimes find great bargains - look for packages and special deals.
Crown moldings, waterfront views from some rooms, and terrycloth robes all contribute to the upscale ambiance.
You'll also love the Hilton's quiet location just a few blocks from the Waterfront, Freedom Trail, and New England Aquarium.
Club Quarters
Club Quarters Boston caters to business travelers who want to be right in the middle of the Financial District.
Based on a "members" concept, the hotel's private entry is restricted to guests only, and the hotel itself is designed to resemble an exclusive private club.
Although you can often find low budget rates at Club Quarters, especially on weekends, the compact rooms offer lots of nice amenities and luxury touches you normally find at much more expensive hotels.
If you don't need the services of a hotel staff at the front desk, Club Quarters is a terrific choice.
The drawback?
The relatively (for Boston) cheap hotel rates here are not exactly a secret...so book as far in advance as possible.
