Local Places to Stay

There are many hotels, bed and breakfasts, etc in the area to choose from, and many people use Priceline, Hotels.com or Kayak.com to find the best rates in the area. These sites have consistently been lower than any block rate we have been offered.


Sharing a room is a great way to split costs – if you are interested in sharing and don’t have someone you are coming with, let us know and we can share your email with others who express interest in sharing a room.

Several Teleosis alumni who have made this trip frequently had the following advice:

  • Generally we bid on Priceline; we typically get rates of $70 - $85 in May
  • We prefer the Hyatt in Waltham because it has a kitchen. We also have stayed at the Hilton, Westin and the Indigo. We avoid the Crowne Plaza because of the noise from the mass turnpike (sleeping isn't our strong suit and any noise just makes it worse!)
  • It doesn’t pay to book too early
