The Best Hotels Near Boston’s Gillette Stadium for Soccer Fans

Like the Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup — the biggest soccer tournament in the world — is held every four years in a new host country each time. In 2026, it will take place throughout North America, i.e. in the US, Canada, and Mexico, but the US will host more games than the other two nations. Among the 11 US cities welcoming players and fans for the sporting event, is Boston. A total of seven matches will take place in Boston’s Gillette Stadium during the 39-day tournament.

If you’re keen to see as many of the matches as possible between the kick-off game on June 11, 2026 and the final on July 19, 2026 — and potentially see USMNT win some — you need to plan ahead. And that means purchasing tickets for the matches and booking suitable hotels where to prep and where to crash afterwards. The following hotels near the Gillette Stadium are the ones you should be looking for the summer of 2026’s biggest sporting event.

We hope you love the hotels near the Gillette Stadium we recommend! Just so you know, Matador may collect a small commission from the links on this page if you decide to book a stay. Listed prices are accurate as of the time of publication.

Location: 28 Patriot Pl, Foxborough
How far from the stadium: Three-minute walk
Price: From $179 per night

This Marriott property is the closest you can stay to Boston’s Gillette Stadium. The three-minute walk between the two means you won’t have to find a place to park on game day, and you won’t have to battle the crowds before and after matches on public transport. But location isn’t this hotel’s only asset.

The Renaissance Boston Patriot Place Hotel offers a choice of four types of rooms, all newly renovated and decorated in the same modern style. The range of rooms can accommodate between one and four people in queen-size and king-size beds. If you want to keep an eye on Gillette Stadium at all times, request a room with a view — you won’t be disappointed.

The only on-site restaurant, Twenty8 Food & Spirits, serves American-style cuisine. But if you’re looking for something different, you won’t have to stray far. There are plenty of food and drink options within walking distance — ranging from casual to sophisticated — including Mexican and Italian restaurants, a seafood-focused venue, and several bars where you can meet fellow sports fans.

Like any modern property worth its salt, the Renaissance Boston Patriot Place Hotel is home to a fitness center equipped with everything you need to stay in shape. But the best part is the beautiful indoor heated saltwater pool and its plush seating, where you can relax after swimming a few laps.

And in case you’re wondering — yes, this hotel is named after the New England Patriots, since Gillette Stadium is the team’s home. As such, it knows how to make sports fans feel welcome.

InterContinental Boston by IHG

Location: 510 Atlantic Ave, Boston
How far from the stadium: One-hour on public transportation
Price: From $360 per night

This IHG property isn’t close to Gillette Stadium, but that doesn’t mean it’s hard to reach. The hotel is just four minutes from South Station, where you can hop on a T train for the one-hour-plus ride to the stadium. While that might seem like a long way to go to catch a game, the hotel’s location more than makes up for the time spent on the train — Boston’s waterfront is unbeatable.

Not only can you enjoy views of the Fort Point Channel from the floor-to-ceiling windows of your room or suite, but you’ll also be within walking distance of the USS Constitution and the Boston Tea Party Museum — two of the city’s must-sees.

The rooms and suites at the InterContinental Boston by IHG have been recently renovated with marble baths and elegant furnishings. At 3,200 square feet, the Presidential Suite is the largest room type available, featuring one king-size bed, two queen-size beds, a dining room, and a sitting room with a fireplace. Of course, the Classic Rooms are great too, just a bit smaller at 420 square feet.

The on-site restaurant, Matria, is open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. Its seasonal terrace is a great spot to enjoy Italian fare with a view of the Seaport. For drinks, guests can choose from three options: the stylish Bar Fellini, the secretive and speakeasy-like Loyall Counting Room, or the seasonal and outdoor 501 On The Waterfront.

Location: 250 Franklin St, Boston
How far from the stadium: One-hour on public transportation
Price: From $495 per night

There are no two ways about it: If you want a luxury experience during your time in Boston, you need to stay in the city center — not near the stadium. And yes, even if the main reason for your visit is to catch a FIFA World Cup match, it’s well worth it.

The 1,100-square-foot Two-Bedroom Suite is the largest room type available, but unless you’re traveling with a group, all you’ll need is a cozy yet elegant Park View Club Room. No matter which of the many room types you choose, you’ll enjoy gorgeous furnishings and classic New England decor.

The wellness facilities include a gym with state-of-the-art equipment, a 40-foot indoor pool, a hot tub, and several saunas — perfect for unwinding after the match.
