How we ranked these hotels
Hotels with published sustainability certifications or verified eco programs came first. Within that group, higher star ratings took priority, and guest review scores broke any remaining ties. Hotels outside the Fenway neighborhood boundary, regardless of proximity, were excluded. The Verb Hotel at 1271 Boylston St and the Residence Inn at 125 Brookline Ave both sit within Fenway's boundaries and anchor the geographic scope of this list. Back Bay and Kenmore Square properties were excluded even when they appeared close on a map.

Practical tips for booking in Fenway
- Red Sox home games sell out nearby hotels weeks in advance. Book at least 3 weeks ahead for any date between April and October.
- The MBTA Green Line D branch stops at Fenway station, one block from Boylston Street. Most hotels on this list are within a 5-minute walk of that stop.
- Longwood Medical Area visitors get the fastest access from The Inn at Longwood Medical, which sits on Longwood Avenue and is a 3-minute walk to the Green Line E branch at Longwood station.
- Street parking in Fenway is scarce on game days. Confirm garage availability with your hotel before arrival if you are driving.
What makes Fenway a distinct place to stay
Fenway is one of Boston's most recognizable neighborhoods, shaped by three anchors: Fenway Park at 4 Yawkey Way, the Museum of Fine Arts at 465 Huntington Ave, and the Longwood Medical Area along Longwood Avenue. Hotels here serve a wider mix of guests than most Boston neighborhoods. On game nights, Boylston Street fills with fans walking from the Kenmore and Fenway Green Line stops. On weekday mornings, the same streets carry medical professionals and researchers heading to Brigham and Women's or Boston Children's Hospital. That dual demand keeps occupancy high and gives the neighborhood a pace that differs from the quieter residential blocks of adjacent areas. The hotels on this list sit within that active core, not on its edges.
