Leon Crew has an unused block of 14 twin suites at the Doubletree Guest Suites on 400 Soldiers Field Road. Our girls did not make the lottery.

The hotel is on the Charles River overlooking the Powerhouse Stretch approximately one-third of the way into the race. You can easily walk to the HOCR trailer site as well as many restaurants and shopping venues. The suite includes two double beds and a pull out sofa bed. The rate is $299/night for October 18, 19, 21, and 22. You do not have to book all four nights.
