The Spotlight on Found Hotel Boston Common

Historic Charm Meets Music-Lover Convenience in the Heart of Boston

Found Hotel Boston Common blends vintage charm with modern comfort in an unbeatable downtown location. Built in 1877, this classically styled boutique hotel sits just steps from Boston Common and places you right in the heart of the city’s Theater District. With cozy rooms, free Wi-Fi, and around-the-clock service, it's a perfect home base for concert-goers looking to experience Boston’s buzzing live music scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

You can’t beat the walkability here—the Citi Performing Arts Center-Wang Theater is less than 1,000 feet away, and the Cutler Majestic Theater is just around the corner. This means you can catch your favorite artist and be back in your room within minutes. The 24-hour front desk is great for late arrivals, and the hotel’s peaceful, quieter vibe makes it ideal for post-show wind-downs. Public transport options are abundant, with rails and buses within a half-mile radius.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable, central stay
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend
  • Fans who want a quiet space to recharge after the show
  • Budget-conscious travelers who don’t want to sacrifice location

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, you're surrounded by a wide variety of walkable dining options—from late-night pizza joints to upscale restaurants. Boston’s Theater District is known for its food scene, and breakfast spots are plentiful for those slower mornings after a big night out. Room service isn’t available, but the front desk staff is happy to help with local recommendations.

Nightlife Options

You're in the heart of Boston’s nightlife. The area is dotted with lively bars, lounges, and live music venues, many within walking distance. Whether you’re looking for a craft cocktail, a local brew, or a dance floor, you’ll find plenty of options just steps from the hotel.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the location for being close to major theaters and music venues. Many mention the hotel’s historic character and value for money. Travelers appreciate the clean rooms, friendly staff, and the convenience of being able to explore by foot or public transit.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel’s historic charm also means some rooms can feel a bit snug, especially for groups with lots of gear. There’s no elevator, so those with mobility concerns may want to request a lower floor. Also, while there’s no on-site bar or restaurant, the surrounding neighborhood more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

Found Hotel Boston Common is a charming, affordable choice for concert-goers who want to be steps away from the action yet enjoy a comfortable night’s rest in the heart of Boston.

Clean no frills centrally located...

Liked: This is a no frills hotel, perfect for those seeking for a clean downtown place to sleep and you are out and about all day.
Disliked: Closet, the hangers were facing me when it would’ve been much more convenient with just a bar across the closet. The safe was locked, I was there for only 2 nights and didn’t feel like going through the hassle of getting the hotel staff to unlock it.

More than I expected -...

Liked: Easy to find, convenient to my planned activities, squeaky clean, everything I needed. The wardrobe had a neat little alcove which held my reading light and book perfectly.
Disliked: It would have been nice if the desk chair had been comfortable. There was room for a second chair, which would have also been nice in a room with two beds.

Bring Earplugs

Liked: Easy location, very clean, modern, nice staff, convenient
Disliked: I was given a room on the ground floor and it was so LOUD at night. I could hear full on conversations between night crew and guests as if they were in my room. Was woken up so many times during the night.

Clean, comfortable, and convenient.

Liked: Small bedroom but it was fine for us. Large bathroom. Very clean and comfortable and more affordable than other options. Would stay again. Very friendly and helpful front desk staff. Offered a list of recommended restaurants and gave advice on best walking route to Fenway. Great service to be able to keep bags there before checkin and after checkout. We didn't drive, but there is a convenient parking garage across the street.
