The Omni Parker House

🏨 If you're going to call yourself the longest continuously operating hotel in America, you'd better have some juicy history to back it up. Luckily, the Omni Parker House, Boston’s 170-year-old hotel, delivers.

⚔️ Predating the Civil War by 10 years, the Parker House has hosted celebrities, politicians, revolutionaries, assassins, and at least one ghost.

👨🏻‍🍳 Not to be outdone, its restaurant is responsible for culinary delights like the Boston cream pie and Parker House rolls.

🇺🇸 The Omni Parker House has carved out a place as Boston’s Grande Dame and a true American icon.
