Experience Historic Boston

Boston is a city rich with history from the Boston cream pie to the Boston Tea Party or the midnight ride of Paul Revere.  And the Omni Parker House puts you close to the city's best-loved locales.  Boston is a patriotic town older than America itself, so a tour through the city’s fabled streets is like a walk through time. 

Stroll to Beacon Hill or the famous Orpheum Theatre, visit spirited  Cambridge and the Harvard campus or catch a ballgame at Fenway Park.  Take a walk down the Freedom Trail and shop in Quincy Market.  At the Omni Parker House Hotel, you’re a heartbeat away from the best of Beantown.
