Hotels near Back Bay

Back Bay is Boston's most visitor-friendly neighbourhood and the best World Cup base in the city. Newbury Street (the city's best shopping and dining corridor), the Boston Public Garden, the Prudential Center, and Trinity Church (206 Clarendon St) are all on your doorstep. Copley Square Station connects you directly to South Station (3 stops on the Orange Line) for the Foxborough match-day train.

Back Bay rates on World Cup match weekends run $300-550/night for mid-range. The neighbourhood is extremely walkable - Fenway Park (4 Yawkey Way) is a 20-minute walk west, the Freedom Trail begins 10 minutes east. Several Back Bay hotels are offering World Cup packages; ask specifically when booking.

Pro Tip: Take the MBTA Orange Line from Back Bay Station to South Station (3 stops, 8 min), then board the Commuter Rail Providence/Stoughton Line on the special Foxborough match-day service. Buy your Foxborough match-day rail ticket online in advance - they sell out.

Stadium distance: 45 km, ~75-85 min via Orange Line to South Station + MBTA Commuter Rail to Foxborough.
