Where to Stay When Visiting Wayfair (Boston)

By Rachel Julian, Editor-in-Chief · · 5 min read

Wayfair's headquarters is in Boston. Boston's core runs on the T; the 128 and 495 belts run on cars. Which one your campus is in decides the trip.

Direct answer: Visiting Wayfair's HQ in Boston (4 Copley Pl): stay in the Back Bay area near the office. Stay in Back Bay near Copley Square, close to Wayfair — the hotels cluster around Copley and the Prudential Center, walkable to the offices and the T. You won't need a car in this part of Boston. Boston Logan (BOS) is about 15 minutes from Back Bay via the Ted Williams Tunnel — the airport for the city. The Green and Orange lines serve Back Bay, though a cab from Logan is often simplest. Manchester (MHT) and Providence (PVD) are far-flung budget options.

Wayfair is an e-commerce company for home goods and furniture, headquartered at 4 Copley Pl, Boston, MA 02116. That's Back Bay — Boston's elegant Copley Square district along Boylston and Newbury, home to Liberty Mutual, Wayfair, American Tower, and Eversource, dense with hotels and on the T.
