  • Inn Details

    The Park Lane, which provides a sweet alternative to the hub-bub of Boston, is conveniently nestled in the quiet tree-lined streets of Newton, a lovely suburb just West of the city. This large Baronial style stucco, is a quick 7-10 minute walk to the MBTA stop. Convenient and accessible, the "T" (our light rail system) gets you to the heart of Boston in just 20 minutes. There you can meander around easily by foot to visit our new Aquarium, Museum of Fine Arts, the Children's Science Museums, not to mention Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market, the USS Constitution, Beacon Hill and many other historical, amusement and athletic sights. Dine both in Boston and Newton at a variety of American and Ethnic restaurants before you take in a show or the symphony. Jim, a life-long resident (and bicyclist), well- versed on the area, will gladly assist your travel needs and can provide access to rental cars. Two very private guest rooms on the third level are furnished with antiques, share a bath and a hall skylight. A second level third room with private whirlpool bath, queen bed, dressing room and many other amenities, provides a quiet view through the trees. Guests can relax on the lovely front porch (weather permitting). Reservations are required and must be reserved by a credit card.

    My stay with Jim & Pat was very delightful. Also they gave very helpful info about how to find the B&B from the ariport. Delightful company and helpful info about how to get around and what could be of interest for you. Very good WIFI, and quiet surroundings. I enjoyed my stay in an American home.

    And great wi-fi too!

    A short walk via park to downtown Newton, shops and a variety of shops and cafes. Nice, quiet neighborhood, easy to find. Great place to sit out on the front porch. Patti and Jim are friendly and accommodating hosts and know the area well.

    Special dietary help.

    Jim and Patti are wonderful hosts. We enjoyed the individual attention making us feel at home. They were very accommodating to my gluten-free diet. Public transportation is a short walk away. Very clean. Jim and Patti are very helpful, providing maps and direction and are very knowledgable to the Boston area, making it much easier for a tourist of the area. Highly reccommend. 5/23/10

    Super recommended.

    The place is wonderful and both Innkeepers are extraordinary kind. The Breakfast is amazing- and the location is excellent (5 min walk from the train). Jim -the Innkeeper – helps me a lot planning my trip- and even gave me his new maps as a present. One of the Best B&B! Super recommended. Miron G. Israel
