Boston’s first Four Seasons, facing Boston Common, offers up historic charms and treetop views from the indoor heated pool. The Swan Boats, one of the city’s most iconic family-friendly activities, are found around the corner, and the Four Seasons keeps the theme going with free tickets for all guests. Plus, the hotel’s feathered mascot, Willow, makes her way into the kids experience via a scavenger hunt—those who complete it are rewarded with locally crafted bird-shaped chocolates.
Kids also get souvenirs at check-in here, thanks to the Mystery Closet accessible via a special key. Children can pick out toys like Slinkies and coloring books before heading upstairs, where littles get 24/7 access to the floor “vault”: a snack-and-sweets-filled treasure trove.
Grab a complimentary hot chocolate or “babyccino” (made with steamed milk) at in-house Sottovento Coffee and head out for adventures on the town, or cozy up for a family movie night in one of the child-sized fuzzy robes. The all-day kids’ dining menu features favorites like chicken fingers, mac and cheese, and pizza.
