WHERE TO STAY

Top hotels near Alumni Stadium

Chestnut Hill and the surrounding Newton and Brighton neighborhoods offer several lodging options within easy reach of Alumni Stadium. Hotels along Commonwealth Avenue and near the Massachusetts Turnpike provide the most convenient access. Downtown Boston hotels are also viable thanks to the Green Line connection, though expect a 30-45 minute transit ride. Prices spike on football weekends, especially for marquee ACC matchups and the annual Red Bandana Game, so booking early is essential. Budget-conscious fans should look toward Brookline or Watertown for more affordable alternatives.
