6 City Club Hotels In the U.S. That Don’t Require Membership - AFAR
"Set in a Victorian brownstone and founded in 1890 as the nation’s first college club for women, this small, historic property has 12 guest rooms—half with bay windows and decorative fireplaces—and individually themed decor referencing specific colleges (for example, one room reflects Smith College colors). About half the rooms are configured for single travelers and some share bathrooms; rates typically include a continental breakfast. Its central location is a short walk from the Public Garden and Boston Common, making it an affordable, history-rich option for solo travelers." - Pat Tompkins
