Same order as the list above: ranked by a hotel's total event space across all its meeting rooms. The largest single room is shown here, so that column can run out of order. Space figures come from each hotel's meeting-space records. A dash means the hotel's data doesn't list that detail, not that it's unavailable.

Frequently asked questions
How far in advance should I book hotel rooms for a conference in Boston?
For a large conference or corporate event, start securing guest rooms at least three to six months ahead, especially during busy seasons in the spring and fall. Properties with substantial room inventory, like the Sheraton Boston with 1220 rooms or the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport with 1054 rooms, can accommodate bigger groups, but early booking helps lock in rates and availability. If you're coordinating a stay of 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups handles the room block for you.
How does billing work when I book a large room block for an event?
Engine offers consolidated invoicing, so all your guest rooms appear on a single bill instead of scattered individual charges. You can choose from multiple payment options to fit your company's workflow, and there's no membership fee to use the platform. This setup simplifies expense reporting and reconciliation after your conference wraps up.
What's the best way to get attendees to and from Boston for a big meeting?
Logan International Airport, the airport serving Boston, handles domestic and international flights and sits just a few miles from downtown and the Seaport district. Many hotels on this list offer shuttle service or are a short taxi or rideshare trip from the terminals. If you have attendees driving in, confirm parking availability and rates with the property when you book.
What should I look for in a hotel when planning a conference?
You'll want a property with enough meeting space to handle your largest sessions and breakouts, plus ample guest rooms so attendees can stay on-site. The Sheraton Boston offers its largest event space at about 30,000 square feet and can host up to 3,000 people across 57 event spaces, while the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport runs about 26,000 square feet in its largest space with 62 event spaces total. On-site amenities like catering, AV, and flexible room setups vary by hotel, so ask about those details during your planning process.
Can Engine help with both the guest rooms and the meeting space for my event?
Yes. For the guest-room side, travelers can search and book self-serve for stays of 8 rooms or fewer, and Engine Groups handles room blocks of 9 or more. For the meeting and event space, you can find and request venues through Engine Spaces, Engine's meeting-and-event product that connects planners to over 40,000 venues. That way you can source both pieces of your conference through one platform.
