Boston is decorated in the glistening lights, and when the snow falls, the city will magically become a winter wonderland! With the uniqueness of this year, XV Beacon has gathered some of the most wonderful winter activities and Boston area holiday events to make your getaway with beloved family even more memorable.
Beacon Hill Holiday Stroll. The city’s most historic neighborhood is a walk through time during the holidays.

And of course, plan your unforgettable stay with our luxury Holiday on The Hill offer to complete your experience!
