Fodor's Expert Review Cambria Hotel Boston

One of very few lodgings in South Boston outside of the Seaport District, this hotel attracts a younger, trendy traveler with simple but well-appointed guest rooms, contemporary art, and snazzy dining and drinking options on-site. The star is the stellar seasonal rooftop lounge. Rooms feature neutral tones and quotation wall art (from New England literature, of course) and complimentary Wi-Fi. Don't be fooled by the hotel's location "way out" in Southie; it's actually a 10-minute walk across the Fort Point Channel to the South End, and another 10 minutes beyond to Back Bay shopping and sights.
