Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall Marketplace sit at the edge of Government Center in downtown Boston, flanked by the North End to the north and the Financial District to the south. Staying within a few blocks puts you on the Freedom Trail, minutes from the waterfront, and close to the MBTA's Haymarket and Government Center stations. Every hotel on this list sits within 0.3 miles of the marketplace and covers a mix of price points, from boutique North End stays to larger downtown hotels.
