My family of four was looking for a place to stay the week between Christmas and New Year's. We looked around at a bunch of places. The issue was, with two teens, we needed two separate, adjoining rooms (but two hotel rooms x three days adds up to a lot) or a suite somewhere. Marriot's Custom House was far and away out best option. The suite is super-spacious, with a longish hallway separating the central area from the bedroom. Everything was comfortable and clean and we loved the kitchenette. Beyond that, it's a really interesting, old space --a domed lobby, a clock tower, an interesting mezzanine level where you can have tea and look out over cobble-stoned streets. I have never stayed in a hotel like this. Very special! Close to Quincy Market, Boston Aquarium, but somehow you don't feel like you're in a tourist trap. The 'T" is a stone's throw away, as is a quickmart-type place, where you can basic stuff like a banana. We would definitely stay here again!
