BOSTON — If you’re a Red Sox fan in need of a getaway, look no further.
Hotel Commonwealth in Boston has recently undergone a $50 million renovation, including a new Fenway Park Suite complete with a Green Monster wall and filled with Red Sox memorabilia.
A long fly ball away from Fenway Park, the suite features original ballpark seats on its spacious walk-out terrace, along with a baseball mitt to catch homerun balls.
The interior is chock-full of priceless Red Sox memorabilia, including the #6 from The Green Monster scoreboard, originally given to Johnny Pesky when his number was retired in 2008.
A signed baseball and vintage baseball cards from each Ted Williams, Bobby Doerr, Dom DiMaggio and Johnny Pesky can also be found in the room, representing the longtime friendship of the legendary players.
Other collectibles include actual tickets from 1946, 1967 and 1975 World Series games, a coffee table signed by numerous Red Sox legends, and mixed-media photographic artwork of renowned catcher Carlton Fisk created in 2011 by Massachusetts artist Stephen Sheffield to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of Fenway Park.
“We were thrilled to work with Hotel Commonwealth to bring the unique charm and character of Fenway Park to their new hotel suite,” said Red Sox Executive Vice President, Partnerships, Troup Parkinson. “By including authentic memorabilia and one-of-a-kind items, the hotel has extended the ballpark experience a few hundred feet into Kenmore Square for their guests to enjoy.”
In case you were wondering, the room is available tonight for $739.
