Many cities love their sports teams, but Boston takes its fandom to another level. When its squads win big championships — since the turn of the century, Boston’s four major professional teams (the Red Sox, Celtics, Patriots and Bruins) have won 13 titles — there are parades in the streets. Kids skip school and adults play hooky from work to celebrate. And when they lose, the city may as well be in mourning.
Whether it’s the big four pro teams, area colleges and universities (like Harvard and Boston College), annual sporting events (see: April’s Boston Marathon and October’s Head of the Charles Regatta) or major one-off happenings like the upcoming FIFA World Cup, fans show up in a major way.
High-end hotels around town know this, which is why many of them cater to sports fans with all sorts of special perks and amenities. Keep reading for some of the overnight packages we can’t stop cheering for right now.
Take a shuttle from Encore Boston Harbor to the game.
Encore Boston Harbor
A convenient perk for guests at Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Encore Boston Harbor is complimentary round-trip shuttles to TD Garden, where the Bruins and Celtics play. If you prefer a more scenic route to watch Jayson Tatum or David Pastrnak in action, hop on the hotel’s water shuttle instead, which goes back and forth from Long Wharf.
Sports fans can also take advantage of exclusive room rates tied to each team. If you don’t have game tickets, no problem; you can still catch the action at the onsite Sportsbook, which boasts dozens of televisions, along with a 10-foot-high, 123-foot-long video wall.
If you are watching a game at the hotel, spend breaks in the casino, trying your luck at one of the many games on hand, checking out the hotel’s outstanding art collection or indulging at the 26,000-square-foot Five-Star spa, where superstitious fans can help their team to victory with the spa’s signature Good Luck Ritual.
Fairmont Copley Plaza offers fan-friendly packages.
Fairmont Raffles Hotels International Inc.
Forbes Travel Guide-Recommended Fairmont Copley Plaza offers a convenient location in the Back Bay as a base for many of the city’s top attractions, with the subway and commuter rail stations steps from the property. Its Boston Sports Fan Package includes fun amenities, such as local beers, peanuts and Cracker Jacks. And if the game goes late, you’ll appreciate the 1 p.m. late checkout the next day, too.
Pre-game at the gorgeous OAK Bar + Kitchen, where the bartenders are MVPs of their craft. Try a signature cocktail, like the Merry-Go-Round, made with gin, pomegranate syrup, curacao, foaming bitters and lemon, which pays homage to a real merry-go-round bar that used to be a showpiece at the historic hotel.
If you’re in town for the marathon, carbo-load with Oak Bar + Kitchen’s marathon pasta special and thematic cocktail, the 26.3 Shandy, made with Lalo tequila, Sam Adams 26.2 beer, agave and lemon juice.
Boston Harbor Hotel gives the hockey faithful lots to cheer about.
Boston Harbor Hotel
College hockey fans should take note that Five-Star Boston Harbor Hotel is a sponsor of Hockey East, New England’s highly competitive college conference. Games in Boston are typically scheduled from October through March at venues such as TD Garden and city campuses.
