Which hotels are located in/connected to the Prudential center? I know about the Oriental and the Sheraton, but I was hoping there would be more options. I have at least two roomie who would prefer to avoid walking along city streets if at all possible.
And, if those are the only two, which hotels are the closest to the Hynes and worth looking into? I've heard good things about the Hilton Back Bay and the Lenox for example, are they a sizeable walking distance (think about traveling in costume)?

Re: Closest hotels to the convention?
Connected to it besides the Sheraton? There's all the Marriott Copley which is connected to the Pru via a sky bridge. I believe at the very end of the Copley mall (which is the name of the mall on the otherside of the sky bridge) is the Colonnade as well. If you are willing to walk a bit outside (and honestly, it's pretty safe), there's the Hilton right next to the Sheraton literally like across the side street and the Midtown (where I like to stay) across the street from the Barnes and Noble entrance of the Pru. The Midtown is about a 5 minute walk, if that. The Midtown and a few other hotels also have convention blocks which make the rooms more affordable.

The hotel on the other end of the Copley Mall is the Westin. The Colonnade is across Huntington from the southern most entrance of the mall.

Ah thanks for clarifying. I don't usually go down that far so I couldn't remember. I knew the Colonnade was close. My mistake thank you.
