If you're planning to stay in Boston's historic North End, you'll find some fantastic hotels in all price ranges, including several on the waterfront, right in this desirable neighborhood filled with top Italian restaurants in the city's central core.

Accommodations range from the luxurious Battery Wharf Hotel overlooking Boston Harbor to apartment-like Bricco Suites with kitchenettes - perfect for assembling platters of the Italian cheeses salami, and fresh-baked bread you can buy at nearby salumerias (don't forget to pick up a bottle of Tuscan wine).

Wherever you stay in the North End, you'll be surrounded by mouth-watering Italian and seafood restaurants, bakeries, and pizzerias.

You'll also get to experience the neighborhood's cafe culture, where you can relax over steaming espresso and the best Italian pastries on this side of the Atlantic. 

There are lots of other reasons why staying in Boston's North End is a great choice:  saints' festivals and feasts during the summer and early fall, the colorful Colombus Day parade every other year, two interesting Freedom Trail sites, and close proximity to sports and concerts at TD Garden.

And remember - if you're flying into Boston, the North End is only about 5 minutes from the airport by water taxi.

Stroll along Harborwalk and watch the boat traffic go by, catch a Bruins game at nearby TD Garden, and walk across the Greenway to Faneuil Marketplace.  Want to go to the airport or another spot along Boston's waterfront?  A water taxi stop is next to the hotel.
