Richard Madeley & Crew Stay at the Charles Street Inn

The Charles Street Inn was happy to host Richard Madeley and BBC film crew this week. The group is responsible for the British geneology documentary series Who Do You Think You Are? Check out the homepage here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007t575

Richard was nice enough to share some kind words about the inn. They were lovely guests and we can't wait to have them back!

Website Renovation

Time to revamp our website with a new wider format, photos, simpler organization and easier reservation form. We enlisted friends, neighbors and even a guest as volunteer models. Professional photographer, Joey Libby, set up some great shots and made the effort a lot of sun for all of us. Check out her website at http://www.joeylibbyphotography.com/, and check our website in a couple of weeks to see how these people enlivened our beautiful rooms. We are going through boxes of fire logs as guests really enjoy the fireplaces and whirlpool tubs in the winter wonderland that is Beacon Hill this winter. And, check out our dinner specials-still a great value for an relaxing intimate evening.

Winter Fun in Boston

There are lots of fun activities to do in Boston once the snow starts flying. If you're an outdoor person, ice skating on Frog Pond in the Public Garden is a well-loved tradition among locals and out-of-towners. (http://www.cityofboston.gov/parks/ttd/frogpond_winter.asp)

Want to stay warm and see a performance? Several shows are playing throughout Boston right now. Check out the website to see if any of them spark your interest! (http://www.boston-theater.com/)

This time of year is the perfect time to visit Boston's fabulous museums. If you still haven't seen the new Art of the Americas wing at the Museum of Fine Arts now is your chance! (http://www.mfa.org/) Right next door at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, you can take in a live music performance every Sunday as a part of their Sunday Concert Series.

At the Charles Street Inn, guests are welcome to retire to their rooms after their winter activities and light themselves a fire, enjoy hot cocoa, or relax in their jet tub. What a perfect way to end the day!

Boston Rings in a New Year
