Located about a 3-minute walk from Prudential Metro Station and a 2-minute drive from the nearest Interstate 90 on-ramp, the Sheraton Boston is geared towards business or vacation travellers who prefer a pet-friendly hotel with meeting/banquet space, on-site dining and easy highway access.

Rooms with a living area and sofabed, a microwave, a mini-fridge, a separate bedroom and a dining area are also available, as are wheelchair-accessible rooms. In-room Wi-Fi is $9.95 per day. 

Hotel amenities include an indoor pool, a hot tub, a fitness centre, over 70,000 square feet of meeting/banquet space, a Starbucks, a business centre, laundry services and a gift shop. 

On-site dining is offered at Cafe Apropos (serving breakfast daily) and SideBar & Grille, which serves lunch and dinner daily. Self-parking is $39 per day and dogs up to 40 lbs are permitted free of charge (guests must sign a pet waiver).

The Shops at the Prudential Center are accessible from inside the hotel, while Fenway Park can be found about 4 minutes away by car. Boston's city centre is roughly a 9-minute drive away and Logan International Airport (BOS) is a 15-minute drive from the hotel. (All distances and travel time estimates: Google Maps)

good hotel with tiny rooms
"The location of this hotel was excellent and service was excellent. The room was tiny!"
Johanna from Beavercreek, OH US rated Sheraton Boston Hotel 8 out of 10 on June 06, 2011
"it's hard to recommend or not recommend this hotel. i would recommend it simply for location...it's great. but, the hotel is old...and while the lobby looks great....the rooms need renovation...the bathrooms are small and paint was peeling off the wall. as for service....we had both good and bad... at the concierge desk...the first night...we had good directions to fenway park...the next day when we asked a different woman at the desk how to get to boston commons...she said, "out the door to the left.." and seemed bothered that we asked.. she gave us no help whatsoever about which train to take...so of course we ended up getting on the wrong line and got lost. it was very frustrating after coming from another hotel in falmouth where the innkeeper was great...giving us detailed directions everywhere we went."
