Hotel Indigo Boston - Newton Riverside

The suburbs aren’t so bad when the hotels are this glamorous. Hotel Indigo gives you a four-star experience at a more manageable price owing to its slightly out-of-the-way location. The boutique hotel includes an award-winning restaurant, top-flight gym and glamorous pool scene (oh, those cabanas). The rooms are modern and bright, with extra-plush bedding, and are also pet-friendly. Most Boston attractions are a 12-mile drive away, but hotel parking is free, and there’s also an MBTA stop a few minute’s walk away if you prefer to go the public transit route—it’s about a 40-minute ride into town. The hotel’s restaurant, BOKX 109 American Prime, overlooks the pool and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
