Q. Anyone know a hotel that would be ok with about 20 people in a room on a late Friday night. The music would not be loud and we'd pretty much be talking and drinking, nothing too wild. If you know hotels that are really strict or that would block a bunch of people from coming in at the same time, pleas list those too.
A. I'd try the Sheraton in Copley Square just because of the way it is laid out. There are multiple entrances and there's elevator access to the rooms from those entrances so no one will even notice a crowd of people coming in from the Prudential Center. :)
What are some cheap places to go to in boston? Like tourist atractions.?
Q. I am visiting with my girlfriend and we got a hotel in the middle of boston and we are to save as much money as possible. So i was wounderkng if there are any cheap tourist atractions. A really good restaurant is also good. Thanks
A. Get a copy of Improper Bostonian at your hotel (It's Free), it will list everything that is happening in town, and when the free nights are at the museums. Also what bands are playing at the Hard Rock, the House of Blues, Club Passim, etc.
Follow the Freedom Trail. Some of the sites are free (Old North Church, Kings Chapel, Granary Burying Ground, etc.) It's a nice scenic walk. Go all the way over the bridge to Charlestown and climb the Bunker Hill Monument (free). Go to the USS Constitution (ship, free), and take the water shuttle back. $2.00 and 15 minutes, the cheapest harbor cruise there is. Fabulous views.
There's a free classical music concert tonight at the Hatch Shell on the Charles.
You can get half price tickets at the BosTix booth in Copley Square (GREAT place to sit for a while), but I think only the Comedy venues have shows now. (The Boston Comedy Festival is this week)http://www.bostix.org/booth_locations.asp
Friday in Copley Square there's a Farmer's Market. Get stuff for a picnic and go over to the Public Garden and watch the Swan Boats. If you are into poetry, download a few and read them to her. I guarantee that's a romantic experience.
I like French restaurants. Le Petit Bistro Robert in Kenmore is nice and not too pricey.
Or wander around the North End and check menus until you find one that matches your wallet.

Whats the easiest way to get to boston?
Q. From stamford, ct and how much would it be in tolls?
A. just take AMtrak up to South Station in Bosotn
no tolls
or you could take I - 95 to 91 N to 84 E to the Mass Pike east, if youa re just visiting for the day, head to the Riversde T station in Newton (from the Mass Pike, take I 95 South, get off the first exit, veer right, merge and it will be on the left in less than a 1/4 mile - you pass a bidge and a hotel, if you see a golf course, you went oo far) parking is 6 dollars,
fi you are staying overnight then drive into the city (taking Amtrak is still better, Boston driving is notoriously bad)
tolls are not bad
from I -4 to I-95, tolls are 1.75 each way
from I 84 to Copley Square exit in Boston, tolls are 4.15 each way
