Hotels for Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees

Baseball's oldest rivalry doesn't need a pennant race to draw a full house on a Thursday night. Fans arrive early, the concourses fill fast, and the noise builds well before the first pitch. Expect the kind of tension that only exists between these two clubs — every pitch gets a reaction, every close call gets booed or cheered depending on which side of the aisle you're sitting. A weeknight game means a slightly younger crowd and a quicker walk to the exits after the last out.

The oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball, Fenway Park is a beloved Boston institution, home to the Red Sox and its famous 'Green Monster' wall, and a characterful host of summer concerts. The surrounding Kenmore and Fenway area buzzes with students, bars and restaurants, with the rest of compact Boston easily walkable.

The MBTA Green Line stops right by the park. Booking a room in Boston lets you soak up the pre-game atmosphere on foot and ride the T back with ease afterwards.
