Weekend in BostonBest of IgoUgo

Overview

We arrived in Boston late at night due to a flight delay and drove straight to downtown to check into the hotel. We also drove around the city to see the night view, absolutely beautiful. We went to eat out at an Indian restaurant on Newbury Street, but the food was bit too pricey for the taste. We checked into hotel, got ready, and went to the club, which was next door to the hotel.

The next morning we went to shop on Newbury Street. There aer lots of fun things to see there.

Quick Tips:

Sightseeing may be the highlight, as shopping can get quiet expensive on Newbury Street.

Best Way To Get Around:

We had a car, but parking is a big hassle there.

Courtyard Boston Tremont HotelBest of IgoUgo

Hotel | "Courtyard Marriott"

Very elegant hotel, very kind service, clean rooms, and nice-size bathroom. Lots of mirrors. Good lighting in the room. It provided a nice view of the city from the windows.

Attraction | "Shopping on Newbury Street"

It's a fun street to walk on and see lot of different shops, from high-end to affordable shops.

The time I was there, they had lots of painted cow statues, which was fun to see.

Attraction

Nice atmosphere with mostly young adults and nice music to dance to. It is right beside the Courtyard Marriott and has a pizza place next door (cheap and good pizza).

Boston fo 1 DayBest of IgoUgo

Story/Tip

I was in Boston for 1 day, but it was a nice experience. We mostly drove around the city and Newbury Street and everywhere. It's a nice city to view from the car or by walking. The best view of the city was when we were landing from the plane on the runway.
