Bulfinch Hotel
The Bulfinch is a landmark in downtown Boston. But that's not what makes it fun. Its location makes it fun. The Bulfinch is near most everything visitors demand out of the city, including the best shopping areas and Market Commons. It's also near some of Boston's more legendary bars, restaurants, nightclubs and pubs, including the world-famous Bull and Finch Pub, made famous by the long-running television sitcom "Cheers." A 10-minute walk will find you down by the waterfront and at the doorsteps of one of Boston's most highly visited attractions, the New England Aquarium, which packs in almost 1.5 million visitors annually. If you're looking for a truly unique golf experience, take a 4-mile trip to the west and play at the Fresh Pond Golf Course, a nine-hole layout on the outskirts of historic Cambridge.
