Air Travel
Boston's Logan Airport (BOS) is the city's primary airport. It is located just five miles from the hotel, and is served by all major air carriers. Learn more about the airport at its website.
From the Airport - BOS
Marriott Copley Place does not provide shuttle service to and from Logan. Attendees traveling by air can utilize a taxi (estimated fare: $35.00) or the subway (estimated one-way cash fare: $2.50).
To get to the host hotel from Logan via mass transit:
- Board the Silver Line (SL1) at your arrival terminal. Please be aware that the Silver Line is bus rapid transit. No fares are collected on the Silver Line at Logan Airport.
- Exit at South Station (the end of the SL1 line). There, you will transfer to a Red Line train Inbound to Alewife/Park Street. This is a free transfer.
- Take the Red Line one stop to Downtown Crossing, then tranfer to an Orange Line train to Forest Hills.
- Take the Orange Line three stops to the Back Bay station. This station has a direct connection to Copley Place Mall, which is connected to the host hotel via a skybridge.
Please note that this free option is only valid for passengers boarding the Silver Line at Logan. Your return trip will still require a cash fare.
