Boston is a tapestry of colorful and exciting neighborhoods, some of which vary dramatically from one to the next. Whereas many of the top hotels in Boston are clustered around the Back Bay and Downtown areas, Boston’s best Airbnbs radiate outwards in all directions.
Staying in an Airbnb in Boston lets you explore both those aforementioned central neighborhoods, but also dive into the locals-only enclaves like Charlestown, South Boston (“Southie”), and Dorchester. You can even hop across the river to stay in Cambridge or Somerville, which are technically their own cities but functionally feel like an extension of Boston proper. Between its public transit system and high walkability, Boston offers a fascinating melange of old meets new, where you’re as likely to walk by a biotech office as you are the world’s oldest-commissioned floating warship, and where views of Boston Harbor or the Charles River are never far.
Here, our guide to Boston’s best Airbnbs covers all of the above with something for everyone, from solo travelers to multigenerational groups.
