The Omni Parker House Hotel has played host to many of the brightest creative stars of the 19th century, including Sarah Bernhardt and Henry David Thoreau. It’s still a favorite with presidents and visiting luminaries. From the first glance, the Omni Parker House impresses with its crystal chandeliers, Oriental rugs, and lush greenery. Guest rooms feature custom cherry furniture, rich scarlet fabrics, and soothing taupe accents. Each room is slightly different, but all combine attractive décor with an impressive selection of contemporary amenities. For example, the Harvey Parker Suite features a wet bar, formal dining room, Jacuzzi tub, and separate living room area. The Omni Parker House has created a program that allows guests to choose between a variety of healthy meal options and book spacious guest rooms with all the necessary equipment for a private workout. If you prefer to work out by hoofing it on Boston’s streets, stroll through the Theater District, or visit the nearby Museum of Science. Boston Common and the New England Aquarium are also within walking distance.
