Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us. It was beautifully furnished and stocked with everything we needed. The location was perfect, we were able to walk to all of our places of interest. Highly recommend this location.
Unbeatable location and this property is as advertised. Freshly renovated, clean and comfortable. Our group of 7 had a great time and would not hesitate to stay here again. Tons of things to see and do, many dining option (as you would expect in the city of Boston.).
Wonderful stay! Perfect location, very clean and plenty of space for our family of 6. Peter was great at communicating and very accommodating for us. Very easy to walk to many tourist sites and great to be right around the corner from Charles Street, Beacon Hill neighborhood as well as the Boston Common & Garden. We rented a car for part of our stay and parked it in the parking lot underneath the Boston Common across the street which ended up working well for us. Hope to be back!
Perfect location and plenty of room for a comfortable stay with the whole family. Host was great at communicating, and made the process Che king in and out as easy as possible
This location is absolutely fantastic. We could walk to everything. The townhouse is very spacious as well - plenty of room for our family of 5 plus grandparents. The host was very responsive and kind when we had questions.
My family and I had the most amazing time at this stay! The location was perfect and the home itself was equal parts spacious and wonderful. I would gladly stay here again!
Amazing location for our family trip to explore Boston. Easily walkable to all the sights, very clean and plenty of space to spread out and relax. Excellent host!
My family and I stayed here for a night and had a great time. The place and location are exactly as described and the owner is very responsive and helpful. It fit my family of 6 perfectly and made for a quick 20 min walk to TD Arena (why we were in town). Great stay!
This is an amazing property at an exceptional location. The house is lovely and the host is easily available if needed. We stayed 4 nights and the location is centrally located so you can explore the city with ease. The house is decorated perfectly and the rooms are comfortable. I hope to return for a future visit!
Great location- easy to walk to many Boston sights. Townhome was clean and comfortable. Our host Peter responded quickly to any questions. Would highly recommend to anyone planning to visit Boston.
This place is amazing, perfect location for exploring all Boston has to offer. Plenty of room for the family to relax after a long day. Would definitely stay here again.
Excellent location, spotless, comfortable furnishings. Hope to return frequently.

About the host

Friends and family are the primary components of my life. I work in the hospitality industry, so relationships are at the forefront of both my personal and my professional life. Cooking, entertaining, skiing, traveling and organizing fun travel events are what I love. And sports in general.
Why they chose this property
Boston is a beautiful city. Beacon Hill is the most beautiful and livable part of Boston. Add the park view, the immediacy of the Charles River and Esplanade and access to downtown... there was not too much to think about!
What makes this property unique
Beacon Hill is the most elegant and historic neighborhood in Boston and is known as one of the finest urban neighborhoods in the United States of America. It is at the center of Boston, walking distance from every principal attraction. Next to the gorgeous city parks -- the Public Garden with its Swan Boats and famous Ducklings, the Boston Common, the Esplanade and the Charles River as well as the Hatch Shell, it is also home to Charles Street, one of the most photographed commercial streets in America. With great restaurants and bars, high-end stores, boutiques, galleries and antique shops, along with fine food and wine shops, Charles Street has it all. An evening walk through the gaslit streets of Beacon Hill is often considered a highlight of any trip to Boston. It is all at your door.
All that listed above is within a two to three minute walk from our front door.
Within a five minute walk is the world class destination shopping and restaurants of Newbury and Boylston Streets, Chinatown and the Back Bay, the State House and the Freedom Trail, Downtown Crossing and the Downtown business district.
There are three T stops within a five minute walk. There is a Hubway (city bike rental) directly across the street. But you'll primarily be walking. Everything is that close!
The famous Cheers Bar (from the classic television show) is on our block, just a hundred yards away!
