Discover the historic and vibrant sights surrounding our Boston theater district hotel

Perfectly located in the center of the city and only minutes from the financial district, theater district and the Freedom Trail, The Ritz-Carlton, Boston Common hotel is located adjacent to the 50 lush, historic acres of Boston Common. The oldest public city park in the United States, Boston Common’s varied and colorful history dates back to the 1630s.

Once home to herds of grazing cattle, the Common was also used as a camp by the British before the Revolutionary War. Today, Boston Common is a vibrant public park surrounded by the Massachusetts State House, Boston's Beacon Hill, Boston Public Garden and the theater district. Formal and informal public gatherings – everything from concerts to picnics – are widely held in this open, inviting space. And just steps from this luxurious hotel are fabulous shops in the Back Bay and Beacon Hill areas of Boston.
