During your Boston vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Children's Museum
As you approach the Children's Museum, don't be surprised to see adults suddenly being dragged by the hand when their young companions realize how close they are and start running. You know that the museum is near when you see the 40-foot-high red-and-white milk bottle out front. It makes both children and adults look small in comparison -- which is probably part of the point. No matter how old, everyone behaves like a little kid at this delightful museum.Children under 11 are the museum's target audience. They can stick with their adults or wander on their own, learning, doing, and role-playing. A two-story-high maze, the New Balance Climb & Construction Zone, calls on motor skills and problem-solving abilities. Other favorite hands-on exhibits include Grandparents' Attic, a souped-up version of playing dress-up at Grandma's; physical experiments (such as creating giant soap bubbles) in Science Playground; and Boats Afloat, which has an 800-gallon play tank and a replica of the bridge of a working boat. You can explore Supermercado, a marketplace that introduces Hispanic culture; Boston Black, a new exhibit that celebrates Boston's black history and culture; and a Japanese house from Kyoto (Boston's sister city). Children under 4 and their caregivers have a special room, Playspace, that's packed with toys and activities.Call or surf ahead for information about traveling exhibitions and special programs. And be sure to check out the excellent gift shop (as if you have a choice).
Blue Hills Trailside Museum
This museum at the 7,500-acre Blue Hills Reservation recreation area is fun for all ages and especially popular with the under-10 set. The museum is at the foot of Great Blue Hill, a 20-minute drive south of Boston. Here you'll see replicas of the natural habitats found in the area, displays about the Native Americans who once lived here, and live animal exhibits. Resident animals include owls, honeybees, otters, foxes, snakes, and turtles. Children can feed the ducks, deer, and turkeys. Other activities include hiking and climbing the lookout tower. On weekends, there's story time at 11am and natural-history programs at 1 and 2pm. Special events and family programs change with the seasons; call ahead to register.
Mary Baker Eddy Library/Mapparium
The Mary Baker Eddy Library, a research center with two floors of interactive and multimedia exhibits, opened in 2002. Its mission is to explore ideas of liberty, spirituality, and the like throughout history. A central role is reserved for Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of Christian Science. The library's most intriguing exhibit is the Mapparium, a unique hollow globe 30 feet across. Both a work of art and an illustration of political history, the globe consists of a bronze framework that connects 608 stained-glass panels. Because sound bounces off the nonporous surfaces, the acoustics are as unusual as the aesthetics. As you cross the glass bridge just south of the equator, you'll see the political divisions of the world from 1932 to 1935, when the globe was constructed.

Nice Hotel

Kelly, Providence, RI

The Prudential stop for the green line T is right in front of the hotel.

The Colonnade Hotel was very nice. Our room was clean and spacious. Unfortunately the rooftop pool was closed. Check-in and -out was very quick and easy. Hotel personnel were friendly. The in-lobby restaurant seemed overpriced, so we did not end up eating there. The price for the hotel was fair, and though it was nothing extraordinary, it was nice enough.

Great Location, Friendly, Reasonable

Gary, Miami, FL

We love to visit high quality stores and look for good value. This was a shoppers delight of well known stores, small boutiques, and no sales tax on clothing. Don't miss the small art galleries and places to stop for tea or coffee and a pastry. The area is great for people watching.

If you like to shop in Boston, see the sights, and want good value, The Colonnade is for you. The staff is very friendly and helpful. You can walk to Newbury Street. The Mall at Prudential is right across the street. There are many fine restaurants in the area. There are lots of historic sites in the area. You will mix in with tourists and the many residents of the nearby brownstones and condos. Our room was adequate size, the TV small, and the bathroom small. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was immaculate. There are lots of hotels to choose from in the area. This one was a bargain, but there is nothing cheap about it.

Great Location

Jennifer, Chicago, IL

My husband and I both work in the food industry, so getting good bites is always a MUST. For Lunch, we recomend heading to Neuberry St to either Sonsie or Stephany's both walking distance from the hotel! We also happened to taste a lot of different clam chowders in town, but left the most pleased with Legals "light" clam chowder -it was superb!

Overall, our stay at the Colonnade was a pleasant one. Nothing really spectacular, but at the same time nothing went wrong. We stayed in a King Size Deluxe room, and was A LOT smaller than what I expected, however as we explored Boston I realized that it "fit" the Colonial city. Room Servie was exceptional though- sometime we would have our meals within ten minutes! The staff was great too!The concierge gave us great recomendations and everyone at the front desk was very polite and friendly. The location was ideal! Only a few city blocks from Neuberry Street and across the street from the Prudential shopping center. Also, down the street was The Copley Shopping center. Needless to say everything else Fenway Park, Little Italy, Airport, and Meuseums was just a short cab ride away!

Overall business trip review

Patrick, Seattle, WA, 2007-03-13

There is St. Francis chapel in the Prudential center across the street for weekend services. There is also shopping and dining in the Prudential center as well. The Colonnade is a 10-minute walk from Skipjacks, a very good seafood restaurant which I highly recommend.

The Colonnade is staffed by friendly courteous people who saw to my every need, especially the Bell staff, I appreciated that very much. The business center was adequate, I would have preferred more modern software and hardware. Although sufficient for my needs, I prefer slightly higher standards for a hotel catering to business clients (Office 2007 and newer hardware). The room was clean and confortable, but the bathroom had paint peeling and the shower curtain was torn from the hooks in a few places. The restaurant served great coffee and had a very attentive staff, a simple nod or eye-contact got the attention of the staff and they were quick with their service. However, the restaurant was VERY EXPENSIVE and I consider it over-priced.

Great location

Debbie, Kansas City, MO, 2007-03-11

A grocery store with various hot food bars was less then a block away, and we purchased food and snacks there daily.

The Collonade is in a great location. We used the subway, and the nearest stop was directly outside our front door. The Prudential Center was across the street, and it connected to the Marriott Hotel. We took the trolley tour of the historic sights in Boston, and we walked less than a block to purchase those tickets and catch the ride. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, and our room was clean and comfortable!

The Prudential Center is across the street and has a wide array of shopping and eating. Skywalks connect you to other shopping and dining venues as well.

Friendly staff and excelent location

Carlos, 2006-12-28

Close to many historical places in Boston. There is a nice tour-bus that stops right in fron of the lobby. The hotel is located nearby a large shoping complex.

The hotel location was very convenient for my vacation purposes. The room seamed somehow old but it was very clean. The staff was nice and friendly.

GOOD ~!

Anonymous, Los Angeles, CA, 2006-12-20

Go to the prudential center. And visit the restaurant at the top of it. It might be gorgeous if you are with your sweetheart.

Colonade hotel is in a suitable place to visit boston. You can see the prudential center and subway station near the front gate of the hotel. And the staffs are very helpful. You can get good informaiton from them. But at first, they assigned me a noisy room that is next to a renovatig room. The accident is a little dissapointing. Except for that, the facility and other conditions are very good.

My review of Colonnade Hotel

Anonymous, 2006-12-18

There is a breakfast place down the block called Thortons. It has great food and it wont cost you a kings ransome either.

We were unaware of the construction that was going to be happening during our stay. We were put in a room right next to where all the work was being done and they usually started at 9 in the morning. That being said, everything else about the hotel was great especially the staff. Everyone was more than willing to give us a helping hand.
