Hotel rates in Boston often run $300 – $500 a night for a standard room at a chain hotel. However, travelling became a bit cheaper in Boston this summer when the city’s new 480 bed hostel opened in June 2012.
This new property offers those backpacker-friendly group rooms for $29 a night as well as private rooms for $120 – $150. The rooms are spartan as compared to four and five star hotels, but they are comfortable and a good option for the right traveler. Earlier this summer The Boston Globe included a series of photos showcasing the property which you may see here.
Conveniently located in Boston’s Theater District this state of the art building is steps to all the downtown neighborhoods of Boston. While Boston’s hostel may not be for everyone – this beautiful new building provides options to those on a budget.

Oh, that’s slick! The first couple times I did Chicago I stayed in a private room in a hostel. It was half as expensive as this place, but 25% as nice. If I can’t find a hotel deal the next time I do Boston, I’d definitely consider this hostel!
