Holiday Activities in Boston

For You and Your Partner

Part of the romantic draw of our city is its antiquated and historical feel. Being an old city, Boston is brimming with beautiful historic buildings, cobblestone streets, narrow lanes and alleys, and small but wonderful restaurants. Take advantage of our walkable neighborhoods and explore Boston with your significant other!

1. Cobblestone Cuties

For the oldest and most charming neighborhood tour, consider strolling through Beacon Hill. From lanes filled with gorgeous Federal-period homes to Christmas wreaths on almost every door to holiday lights sparkling everywhere you look, Christmastime in Beacon Hills looks to be straight out of a movie. While you’re out, pop into your local wine bar or Irish pub for a bubbly beverage or toasty snack or venture into the quaint boutiques and cozy bakeries and cafes along Charles Street.

1. Dazzling Darlings

And for those couples who really want to be dazzled during their Boston getaway, check out the grandest light show in town, Blink!, at Faneuil Hall Marketplace. This light show consists of 350,000 golden LED bulbs adorning the huge trees throughout the market area and music from the Boston Pops’ Holiday Pops concert.

1. Fancy Folks

If you and your S.O. are looking to enjoy some fine wining and dining then we have just the place for you! Consider dining at the Igloo Village at 75 on Liberty Wharf, located just minutes away from our Seaport hotel. Enjoy the scenes of Boston Harbor on the Seaport’s Liberty Wharf while enjoying some delicious food and seasonal drink favorites like winter warming Eggnog White Russian or festive Gingerbread Martini.

For You and Your Friends

1. Skate the Day Away 

Grab your friends and venture to this popular spot for ice-skating. Frog Pond on the Boston Common has its own ice-making system for pristine conditions and also offers handy skate rentals and steaming hot cocoa at the Pond Cottage for after your session.

1. Snowport Holiday Wonderland & Outdoor Game Center

Located in our very own Seaport neighborhood, Snowport Holiday Wonderland & Outdoor Game Center is an interactive dream come true! Snowport returns with fun outdoor play options for all ages: including iceless curling, light-up Bocce, and large-scale versions of classic games such as Battleship, Jenga, KanJam, and more.

1. Ugly Sweater Bar Crawl

Gather your friends and deck out in the ugliest holiday sweater you can get your hands on for Boston’s 6th Annual Ugly Sweater Bar Crawl on Saturday, 12/11.
