Snow Days are Great Days at Boston Park Plaza

Winter days are great for playing in the snow, but sometimes you want to appreciate the beauty of the season from inside.

Here are 5 ways to enjoy a Boston snow day, while staying warm.

ONE: Start your day at Off The Common.

When a blanket of white covers the ground, let Mother Nature dictate your schedule. Wake up late. Pull on something comfortable and join us for a delicious, leisurely breakfast at Off The Common. Indulge in menu options such as exceptional eggs benedict, cinnamon-swirl brioche French toast with Vermont Maple Syrup, or choose from a selection of items à la carte. Linger longer over your meal. It’s the perfect start to a snow day.

TWO: Curl up with a cup.

Just off our main lobby, a Starbucks is waiting to deliver your favorite taste of warmth in a cup. Then enjoy our cozy hotel in Boston by settling into our library lounge. Curl up with a great book or magazine and sip your beverage next to our fireplace. There’s something about being fireside on a snow day that makes drinks taste better, especially in one of our large, inviting chairs.

THREE: Take in some art.

The name Leica has defined excellence in photography for more than a century. The only Leica shop and gallery in Boston is on the street level of Boston Park Plaza. The Leica Gallery Boston provides an opportunity to experience the work of established photographers and discover up-and-coming talent. Each exhibit is curated to showcase exceptional photography. Immerse yourself in the art around you. Pick up a print or artist book. Or browse the selection of cameras for sale. It’s a wonderful way to be spend an afternoon.

Four: Fore!

Get on the course when you can’t get to the course at TopGolf Boston. There may be snow on the ground, but it’s always the perfect day for golf at Lynx Fitness, just off the lobby. Book time at the Top Golf Suites to work on your swing or your short game. You can even try playing a famous course, such as Pebble Beach. Your handicap will thank you.

FIVE: End your evening delectably.

Toast your day from the comfort of one of the oversized booths at Strega Italiano. Off the lobby, you enter a world committed to Italian cuisine. Enjoy one of their signature cocktails. Then choose from their menu of favorites such as Mushroom Agnolotti, or Veal Osso Bucco with saffron risotto. Pair your meal with one of their select wines, and it’s a perfect end to a perfect snow day.

Outside the hotel there are so many things to do in Boston when it snows. Make a snowman in The Common, or snow angels in the Public Garden. Take in the lights of Commonwealth Avenue and remind yourself of the simple joy of a winter day.
