Fodor's Expert Review The Emerson Inn
1 Cathedral Ave., Boston, Massachusetts, 01966, USA
An elegant retreat overlooking the ocean, this beautifully restored historic property where, yes, Ralph Waldo Emerson once stayed, dates back 150 years. Well-appointed rooms (make sure to request an ocean front room) are comfortable with luxurious bedding and amenities. The '20s themed lounge will make you want to dress up and order a fancy drink, while breakfast on the expansive porch will have you linger over coffee. Don't skip the walking path outside the inn along the Atlantic.
PROS
- Historic charm
- Heated outdoor pool
