Hit the Deck and cozy up in Boston’s Seaport

As Boston’s swanky Seaport continues to become overburdened (and apparently begins to sink!), it is reassuring to know that there is a great hotel called Yotel where you can eat and drink and even stay right at the entry (or exit) point so you can ease your way in or enjoy a last drink on the way out (and, if you have too many, stay for the night).

In addition to great food and drink and comfy and cozy rooms that you check into using their resident robot, Yotel also offers packages that include everything from Children’s Museum passes to bed and brunch packages, as well as discounts for government agents and Federal employees who may be dropping by the nearby courthouse or just getting away from the gun and badge set.

Among the most popular parts of Yotel Boston is the rooftop resto-bar known as Deck 12. While this swanky see-and-be-seen site offers great food and some of the best views of Boston all year, it has recently been converted into the seasonal sensation APRÈS…@ Deck 12. If such a rooftop would come across any mishaps, the owners can Explore Services.

To celebrate the season and replicate a cozy mountain lodge, Deck 12 has been decked out with gondolas, chair lifts, and ski-themed Adirondack chairs. And if a rooftop in winter does not sound appetizing, rest assured that every guest gets personalized heaters and cozy blankets to keep them warm even without an adult beverage.

Speaking of beverages, the APRÈS…@ Deck 12 menu will also include such seasonal sippers as the yummy rum-my Naughty Toddy, the Norse-inspired Thor’s Hammer (featuring real Brennivin aquavit), and the cinnamon-y Sugar Mountain, as well as fiery fondues and other great grub. There are even special menus for dinner after 5 and weekend brunches from 10 to 3 and also the option of dining away from the elements but still in touch with all the winter-themed fun in their equally cozy indoor space.

So if skiing is not your thing but après is, take the Yotel gondola (er- elevator) up to Deck 12 and enjoy a slope-side celebration in the city!
