There is no need to rent a car, weather permitting, if you are visiting Boston for a few days and staying at the DoubleTree. If you are trying to economize, you can take the train (the Charlie) from the Airport(take the blue line route) and get off at the Aquarium. There, you can get picked up by the DoubleTree shuttle. That's a savings of about $35 to $40 from a cab ride. Just be sure to call the hotel and arrange to be picked up. The shuttle runs from about 9am to 9pm on weekdays, a little less on the weekends. If you are imaginative and flexible, the DoubleTree's complimentary shuttle service can meet your transportation needs. They have four convenient shuttle stops: Harvard Square (there's a train station there, too), Copley Square (train station there), Boston Common and the Aquarium. Get a map, enlist the help of the concierges, tip the shuttle drivers, wear comfortable shoes and get ready to do a lot of walking!
