Boston Getaway

I went away for a nice weekend with my fiancee and a few friends. My sister was currently a student at Brandeis University and we turned a trip to see her into a nice little getaway. The hotel was lovely and they were extremely accommodating. It was quite noisy outside of the suite we were staying for the weekend. At the time there was construction going on right outside the window. The front desk handled it immediately moving us to an upgraded room with a balcony.

I was very impressed with everything. The hotel itself was lovely. The rooms were spacious and bright. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was large.

Like I mentioned before, the staff were extremely accommodating. I'd definitely stay there again.

The rooms are on the pricey side but you are paying for the location (right at Faneuil hall). I'd say more for a nice "grown up" getaway rather than a place for young children.

Fire and Ice is a great all you can eat restaurant with a twist. The place is fun and funky, and always has a great vibe going. While you wait for your table upstairs you can grab a drink at the bar.

Once upstairs and seated, grab a place and head for the food bar. Fill your place up with noodles, vegetables, seafood, meat, and/or chicken. Grab a sauce and head for the circular hibachi. You can even get a big burger cooked too. Hang out at the hibachi and watch as the cooks stir fry your food (or grill your huge burger). Last time I was there you were even able to grab a beer while you waited for you food to be cooked.

You will definitely have a blast and walk out completely full and satisfied.

I recommend this restaurant for adults and children (kids should be supervised while making their plates). The atmosphere is fun, full of all sorts of people and loads of college kids. I make it my business to eat here every time I come to Boston!
