Looking to rent a car from Boston for a few days in the fall and was hoping to get the car delivered to the hotel. The rental websites come up with an airport or city rental location. Do you know who would deliver the car to the hotel without an extra charge? And should I book through the internet then email then to arrange it?
(I very rarely hire a car so this is new territory for me.)

Look for a Hertz Local Edition or Enterprise Rent-A-Car. The airport guys usually won't deliver cars, but Hertz and Enterprise have off-airport locations that will probably help you.
There are many inner-city car rental offices near hotels. For example, from Hertz, they have the following locations:

My recommendation would be to call your hotel to ask where the nearest car rental location is- otherwise, I believe enterprise will pick you up at your hotel.
Hope that helps!
