BOSTON, MA - Hyatt Regency or Boston Harbor?

Planning a trip next October to Boston for a few days vacation. Need to choose between the 2... based on accommodations, location etc...

What is your recommendation?

Things to consider:

- Traveling with my wife and a 15 month old
- Will use a DSU

Thank you in advance...

I'd suggest Hyatt Regency as it is in the downtown. The Boston Harbor Hyatt, though has a great view and free airport shuttle, is a little far from all the tourist spots.

Thanks! We are driving it so even more of a reason to stay at HR....

At the Regency only one of the suites in the upgrade pool has a tub/shower (vs. walk in shower only). I believe it is 2001 or 2101. We switched into this room to help w/bathing our baby. They will provide an infant tub but it was easier to do w/a faucet rather than just a showerhead.

TV input

I'm using this thread to include a quick question about the HR Financial Boston. Do the TV in the Executive suites have hdmi input?

I was just there a few weeks ago. I know the regular rooms don't have accessible HDMI ports on the TV. I assume it would be the same if the TV is mounted up against the wall.

If you are headed to the HR Boston and you are driving, be aware that the hotel's parking is very expensive.

My suggestion if it is over weekend, is to take a look at the Post Office Square Parking Garage. A 5-7 min walk and far cheaper ($9/weekend day I think vs $40+)
