Eliot Hotel Parking
Although the Eliot Hotel does not have its own parking garage, valet service is fast and efficient.
If you don't need in/out privileges, you may be able to find cheaper rates at a nearby garage where you can leave your car. Drop off your bags at the hotel (give them a call if you need help with your bags) and then head to the garage.
The cheapest parking for weekends and nights is at Boston Common Garage (10-12 minute walk, unless you linger as you walk through the Public Garden, which is easy to do). Validated parking, which gives you a small discount, may be available at the 100 Clarendon Street Garage (5-6 minute walk). Closest but most expensive is at the Prudential Garage (use the Exeter Street entrance and park as close to it as possible for a 4-5 minute walk).
A better (and cheaper) option is to not bring your car at all, if possible.
