Where to stay while traveling to Boston for a Sox game then off to Maine for a week?|125527

We are rookies in Boston and wondering how difficult the public transportation situation is in Boston. How far north could we stay out of town and still use public transporation to the Sox night game? Also any suggestions for an inexpensive hotel north of Boston on the public transportation line.

You could easily stay north of Boston - and save HUGE money on a Hotel. Say if you stayed in Woburn (about 15 minutes outside of Boston) you could jump on the train or commuter rail to get into town. I would not suggest to stay in Boston or you_ll be paying through your nose - And hey, you_ll be doing that at Fenway anyway so better to save your money in other ways! I would look for Hotels in either Woburn, Stoneham, or Medford - They are all on Rt 93 which is the way to Boston. Have fun!!

Midtown Hotel is about the cheapest and it_s across the strret from the 55 bus, that goes right to Fenway Park.

stay at the tilton manor in titlton, NH. say hi to kirk for me.

You can stay as far north as Newburyport, MA and ride the commuter rail to Boston North Station, then get on the green line to Fenway.

There are no motels close to the commuter rail station in Newburyport though, you would need to take a cab.

Newburyport is near the MA, NH boarder - Maine is ~20 miles up I95.

Look at MBTA.COM

As long as the game doesn_t last much past 10 PM, you could stay in Maine and take the Amtrak Downeaster to Boston North Station. Then take the MBTA (subway) Green line to Kenmore Station then a 2 minute walk to Fenway.
