Every hotel on this list is inside East Boston, the neighborhood that also holds Logan International Airport (BOS). Hotels are ranked by verified sustainability credentials first, then star rating, then guest review score. These are practical places to sleep before an early flight out of Logan.
How we ranked these hotels
The ranking uses three criteria applied in order. Hotels with verified property-level sustainability certifications rank above those without. Within the same sustainability tier, higher star ratings come first. Where star ratings match, higher average guest review scores break the tie.
All five are bookable hotels in East Boston, not hostels or vacation rentals. Two are by the airport on Harborside Drive and Hotel Drive, one is on Porter Street near Airport station, and two are near Orient Heights by Route 1A. The airport hotels just north of here are in Revere, so they are not on this page. Guests who want options in other Boston neighborhoods can find them on our separate neighborhood pages.

What to expect from hotels in East Boston
East Boston's hotel supply is built around Logan Airport. You get two full-service hotels by the airport, the Hyatt Regency and the Hilton, and three 3-star chain hotels elsewhere in the neighborhood. None of these five hotels carry verified property-level sustainability certifications at this time, so the ranking defaults to star rating and guest scores after the sustainability tier.
Guest scores here run from 7.8 to 9.0. Hilton Garden Inn Boston Logan Airport scores highest at 9.0 even with 3 stars, while the Courtyard trails the group at 7.8. If reviews matter more to you than stars, look first at the Hilton Garden Inn and the Hyatt Regency.
