Wired Puppy at the Charles Street Inn

We've recently switched coffee brands to the local, independent company Wired Puppy. They're located at 250 Newbury Street in Boston as well as 379 Commercial Street in Provincetown. Wired Puppy is a Boston favorite and we're delighted to bring it to the Charles Street Inn!

Let us know how you like the new java!

The Boston Museum of Fine Arts Stretches a New Canvas

Need another great excuse to visit Boston this November? The Museum of Fine Arts is opening their brand new Art of the Americas Wing on November 20th. Over 500 million dollars was raised for this enormous project that will add over 50,000 square feet to the now sprawling institution. The addition will house 53 new galleries, including the Linde Family wing dedicated entirely to contemporary art, and the Ruth & Carl J. Shapiro Courtyard.

The Charles Street Inn is only a hop, skip, and a jump away from the MFA--less than 2 miles.

Have an Eco-Friendly Fireside Chat at the CSI

Now that the weather in Boston is cooling down, our fireplaces are heating up. Our 9 guest rooms each have their own wood-burning fireplaces. After a couple years of using Duraflame logs, we discovered the Java Log. These coffee-based logs burn cleaner, longer, and brighter than sawdust based logs. They're also eco-friendly! They produce 85 percent less carbon dioxide than traditional firewood.

Check out this article by National Geographic on how Java Logs were born:

Come join us for a cozy night next to the fire this November. We have traditional Boston Victorian elements with a few modern twists, like the Java Log, thrown in for your enjoyment.
