Homewood Suites by Hilton Boston Brookline-Longwood Medical
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book it if you need a base near the Longwood medical area with a well-regarded breakfast and a pool, and want the lowest price among our three Brookline picks. Know that budget here is relative: at about 256 euros a night in the reference sample, it is not a cheap hotel, and some guests feel the rates run high.

The clearest fit is anyone visiting the hospitals nearby. Guests point to the location near medical facilities and public transport, on a quiet street. Families also have reason to look, since family rooms and a swimming pool are listed.
People who care about breakfast tend to leave happy. Reviews mention oatmeal, fresh fruit, scrambled eggs and gluten-free items.
Skip it if you came to Brookline expecting bargain rates. This is our Budget pick only because it was the lowest eligible price among three candidates. Some guests say the rates are higher than similar options nearby.
Location and getting around
The hotel sits at 111 Boylston Street, Brookline, with a location score of 8.7.
Straight-line estimates put the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum 2 km away, about 25 minutes on foot. The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston is 2.4 km, about 30 minutes. Fenway Park is 2.5 km, around 31 minutes, which tips it into the far category: plan on public transport or a taxi for a game.
These walking times are rough and unverified. Guests do mention public transport links close by, which helps for the longer trips.
What guests say
The score is 8.5 out of 10 from 229 reviews. Among the 3 eligible properties in the sample, that placed it second on guest score.
Breakfast is the standout. The listed style is American and buffet, and guests like the healthy choices. The quiet street near medical buildings and transport is the other common praise.
Value is the sore point. Guests find it convenient for business but describe the rates as higher than comparable places nearby.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
The reference price was 256 euros a night, or about 512 euros in total. That is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not a live quote. Check today's price for your dates.
The sample median was 272.52 euros, so this hotel came in about 6% lower. Our Best Value pick, Hilton Garden Inn Boston Brookline, Ma, was 272.52 euros with a score of 8.2. Our Luxury pick, Iris Hotel Boston, was 335.24 euros with an 8.9 and 4 stars.
So for the lowest price of the three, you also got a higher guest score than the Best Value option. The gap between all three is modest, so compare live rates before you commit.
Why it made our top 3
We compared only 3 properties in Brookline, so every pick here comes from a small field. The Budget slot goes to the lowest eligible reference price once the upscale choice is set aside.
Homewood Suites took it at 256 euros, backed by 229 reviews and an 8.5 score. That is a respectable record, but with so few candidates you should treat the ranking as a guide, not a final word.
