Boston Hotels

Boston Holidays -  So Many Attractions                     

Along the Massachusetts Bay, Boston, New England, is compact and easy to walk around. The American Revolution started there. The 1930s depression depleted the population. It has blossomed since the 1950s. The graceful skyline,  The Harbor Walk, the busy street life, wonderful museums, galleries, the classy architecture and the tangible history all around delight. It’s a USA City Break which should not be missed.

Cheap Boston Holidays - A Very Liberal City 

Boston loves its past and it has snobbish districts, which can be identified by the upper class Boston drawl. In the 19^th century people made the Charles River Marshlands into the smart Back Bay residential area. Boston’s  upperclass is based on ‘old  money’  familes who arrived with The Mayflower, then made millions in some ways which are best left to the imagination. Then 100 or so years later Cheers was first aired and it became synonomous with the affability of the natives and place where 'everyone knows your name'

Boston's more liberal than a significant proportion of the U.S. and is magic to walk around, to look at, and to feel you are part of an extraordinary dream and civilization. BeattheBrochure loves Boston holidays, and so should you!

Flights to Boston – Visit Beantown

Book flights to Boston and you land in Beantown. Beantown? In the past Boston's port handled thousands of cargo ships packed with sugar and molasses from the West Indies. Some bright spark decided to cook molasses up with a load of beans (which sounds revolting) and created a desperate dish called Boston Baked Beans. Boston is a fabulous place, but no thanks.

Flights to Boston land you at Boston Logan International Airport, typically smart and clean and offering everything the weary traveller could need. Gift shops, duty-free, restaurants, cafes, banks, cashpoint machines and bureaux de change. If you’re a business traveller or welded to your laptop for reasons of your own, there’s Wi-Fi access and, in case you get bored and restless, there’s a manicure service too. Sometimes customer service can go too far.

Boston Flights – The home of polo

Not the mint, the game. Flights to Boston deposit you in the place where Polo, game of the super-posh, was played for the first time in 1876. Newport is also famous for the first US citizen put in prison for speeding way back in 1904. He was probably only doing about eight miles an hour.

Boston Logan airport is in East Boston, America’s sixth busiest and four miles from the city centre. Choose flights to Boston if you fancy visiting a place with loads of firsts to its name and a few more brain cells per pound than average. There’s Harvard, the USA’s first college. The US’s first post office opened here. And the first free public school, public library, newspaper, lighthouse and subway.

Flights to Boston – Basketball was invented here

Basketball was invented in Boston. So was volleyball. Captain Birdseye’s ancestor Clarence Birdseye invented frozen foods in nearby Gloucester in 1925. Scientists and eggheads take flights to Boston MIT, home to ground breaking scientific discoveries and one of the world’s most respected scientific institutions. They invented the first computer there in 1928.
