My son will be getting married near Boston in the fall. The reception will be at the Alden Castle. Where are some good places to stay near there? Where are the most reasonable places near there. How is the Hotel Commonwealth? How would the Eastern Standard be for a rehearsal dinner. Any recommendations for the best places to hold a rehearsal dinner in that area of Boston?

No answer for you; only this suggestion: you may want to try posting to the specific [City Data Forum](http://www.city-data.com/forum/boston/).

Already covered in this thread - [Back Bay Boston - In My Humble Opinion - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=674302)

This one probably should be closed.
