One of the hautest destinations in Boston is the Seaport District, best known for its impressive collection of restaurants complete with waterfront views. At the heart of the region is the Seaport Hotel & World Trade Center that first made a home here well before knowing what the area would become. With the nearby Boston Convention & Exhibition Center enticing events to the area, the hotel, which is home to one of our favorite restaurants, TAMO Bistro + Bar, remains a standout as one of the “greenest” hotels in the country.
