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.

If you’ve never taken one of our decadent chocolate walking tours, you’re in for a treat (lots of them actually).

Boston’s annual Chocolate Trolley Tour will be running from January 7 to April 28 every Saturday 11 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. and will feature the Omni Parker House as their go-to stop for famous Boston Cream Pie.
