Top hotels in Magnolia
Hawthorne Hotel
Great location in the city for walking everywhere. The free lemonade was a hit with the kids. Food on site was great, the wait staff was slow. Not necessarily their fault, I believe they were short staffed. Common restrooms were very clean. Overall, great experience.

Comfort Inn & Suites Logan International Airport
Stayed here to run the Boston Marathon. They started breakfast over an hour early just for us and had the shuttles available to take us to the metro train station every 10-15 minutes. They picked us up multiple times from the same station over our stay. Would stay there again.

Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Boston - Peabody by IHG
For being outside of the city of Boston, this was a good location. I would stay again if necessary. Not convenient if driving a non Tesla electric car.

avid hotel Boston Logan Airport - Revere by IHG
Nice, but as the floors are linoleum it was quite loud and I could hear the upstairs neighbor all night.
