Travel
information
-
Yes we have a room block at the Hampton Inn & Suites Watertown Boston. You can book a room at this link.
-
For those traveling in, we recommend using Uber or Lyft to get from the airport to the hotel. The hotel is roughly a 20 - 45 minute ride from Boston Logan International Airport, depending on traffic.
-
The hotel is located in Arsenal Yards, a mixed-use shopping development with restaurants, a movie theatre, and a park all within walking distance.
If youβre interested in leaving the area, we recommend you check out Harvard Square in Cambridge or Coolidge Corner in Brookline. Both neighborhoods are great and only a short drive away.
One consideration is that this weekend will likely coincide with move-in weekend for many nearby universities. Traffic may be heavier than usual as a result.
