If there is one Boston hotel that can accommodate everyone from families to girlfriend getaways, it would have to be the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport. Omni means “all” in Latin. The Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport is designed to provide everyone, from solo travelers to couples, unique rooms, various amenities, and plenty of upscale options like the Breve Spa, a rooftop pool, and six distinct restaurants. An ideal location for a summer vacation, the bustling Seaport District is the hottest neighborhood in Beantown.
Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport Provides Resort Lifestyle in the Heart of the City
The Seaport District is where locals gather, live, shop and eat. It is the newest and trendiest area in Boston.
Dave Han
Hotel Manager of the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
The two-year-old hotel sparkles like Boston Harbor, located two blocks away. The waterfront has seaside restaurants perfect for cocktails on the front decks. The Institute of Contemporary Art, considered among the city's most dynamic institutions, Faneuil Hall, and Boston's Italian North End neighborhood, among other landmarks, are also easy to get to from the hotel.
The Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport centers itself around Boston's rich music and performing arts history. Musicians perform weekly in the lobby and on the pool deck during the summer. Weekly live jazz at their restaurant, Kestra (Short for “orchestra!”), is another popular activity to enjoy while dining or enjoying an espresso martini. The art aesthetic also appears on the hotel's walls, making it almost like a mini art museum. Guests can learn more about this gallery-level art with the self-guided walking tour guide.
Art and entertainment create a lovely ambiance for business and private social events, weddings, and other personal occasions.
Here are five ways to shape your stay at the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport.
Girls & Boys in Beantown
Many families list Boston high on their must-visit American cities for a good reason, given the exciting landmarks, summer street performers, and nationally recognized family-focused museums. Boston Children's Museum, located less than ten blocks away, faces the Children's Wharf Harborwalk, perfect for energy release after a couple of hours exploring the hands-on science labs, art workshop, and other museum favorites. The New England Aquarium, featuring a giant tank with over 2,000 animals, is a short ride away.
Older kids will appreciate the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum, riding Bluebikes, the city’s bike share program, and hanging out at the funky Lawn on D, a new kind of park where there’s always something interesting going on. And everyone loves a pool day which can be enjoyed at the rooftop pool. (They also have a hot tub!)
The Patron Tower rooms are ideally designed for families, couples, and friend groups. These rooms (which offer both one king or two queen accommodations) are designed with rich colors and offer furnishings with clean lines and a spacious elegance inspired by the arts and the fluidity of the nearby harbor. The rooms start at 380 square feet and offer both harbor and city views, depending on what side of the hotel you are in.
Of course, all ages love pool time in the summer. The Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport’s Pool Deck, available exclusively for guests, provides the perfect gathering spot to chill during a girlfriend getaway or a buddy trip in town to catch the Red Sox or embark on a deep-sea fishing charter, located on the wharf just a few minutes from the hotel. No need to panic about pool space for your gathering's downtime; you can reserve your chaise right on the hotel’s website.
“Lifted Restaurant transports you to a tropical retreat high above the city,” says Hotel Manager Han. "Add in the weekend live music, fusion cuisine, and creative cocktails, and the opportunities to create unique experiences here are limitless."
The Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport offers another escape hatch, too, specifically the upscale Breve Spa. Your gathering's downtime comes in many forms, like the Breve Sound Immersion, the Recover & Reset Massage, and the Doctor Babor Hydrafacial.
Gorgeous Getaways
As we travelers know well, not all hotels are created equal. For some reason, many accommodations forget all about the individual traveler. Not so the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport, the Artist Tower features contemporary rooms like the "non-traditional king." This 240-square-foot space is designed with details including a mini-fridge, under-bed storage, and sumptuous bedding. Guests also receive complimentary fitness apparel from NOBULL. Artist Tower rooms provide a sleek and modern place to stay within a desirable neighborhood. Naturally, “solo with pet” is perfectly fine. Guests also enjoy all the great amenities of the hotel, including their 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness center which provides Peloton’s (among other equipment) to help you stay in shape while on vacation or business. This summer, the hotel will also be introducing complementary wellness classes which include boxing, yoga, and workout classes for all levels.
Me Time
Whether you live in New England or visit from another country, Boston provides a romantic paradise populated with great parks, outstanding restaurants and marine excursions. A Boston Harbor Sunset Cruise passes the USS Constitution, Old North Church and other historic sights, each bathed in the setting sun’s kaleidoscope of colors. You and your sweetheart can also settle into an intimate sail on a schooner or tall ship in a city famous for sailing. You can even book a cruise with your (other) best friend, the dog. A dedicated concierge will secure all of your excursions.
It’s always best to check the Special Offers page on the website when setting up a couple’s playdate. Though these perks are subject to change, “Love and Luxury: Seaport Romance” includes Breve Spa discounts, sparkling rosé, chocolates, and the all-important guaranteed late checkout. Best of all, the special is available seven nights a week. You can also choose from Bed and Breakfast and Spa Specials, among several options for your summer getaway, with rooms starting at $199/night.
Couples’ Escape
With seven dining options, a cool pool scene, and excellent amenities, Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport is considered more of a resort than an urban hotel. Evenings often begin and end in the Crescendo Lobby Bar, already well known for a spirited mixology program that composes several signature movements like the Eroica, a Gin and Tonic with Chareau Aloe Liqueur. Kestra continues the well-orchestrated offerings with a menu drawn from the Seaport District, think lobster chowder accompanied by Mediterranean overtones.

Sports have always been king in Beantown, home to more professional championships than any other city in America. The Sporting Club pays homage to this legacy while providing a spectrum of today's matches on twelve high-def monitors. High above Boston on the hotel's fifth floor, Lifted Restaurant offers fresh casual fare like poke, crab cakes, the "Lob-Stah Louie," and their most famous dish, the salted caramel lobster roll.
Open late, Coquette purveys New England specialties from the raw bar, sets of small plates to share, seafood towers, and "feasts" featuring aged steaks and sea fare. Whether dining on a date, with a group, or solo at the bar, which stays open until 2 am, you'll want to take your time moving through this eclectic menu in a playful belle epoque setting.
