Thanksgiving in Boston: Seasonal Dining & Gatherings at The Liberty Hotel
Thanksgiving in Boston is a season of tradition, flavor, and togetherness. At The Liberty, a Luxury Collection Hotel, we embrace the holiday with a blend of historic charm, modern luxury, and unforgettable dining experiences. Set at the foot of Beacon Hill in the reimagined Charles Street Jail, our hotel is as much a destination as it is a gathering place. This Thanksgiving, join us for a celebration that combines Boston’s rich heritage with the warmth and indulgence of the season.
A Historic Backdrop for the Holiday
Completed in 1851 and transformed into a luxury hotel, The Liberty provides a setting that is both iconic and welcoming. Its soaring architecture, dramatic lobby, and imaginative design details offer a memorable backdrop for your Thanksgiving gathering. Whether you’re visiting from afar or celebrating with Boston family and friends, our Beacon Hill location places you at the heart of the city’s festive spirit. From the fall foliage of the Charles River Esplanade to the historic charm of nearby neighborhoods, the holiday feels quintessentially Boston at The Liberty.
Seasonal Dining at CLINK.
Thanksgiving is about flavor, and CLINK., our signature restaurant, sets the table for a feast to remember. Known for its focus on North Atlantic seafood, New England fare, and artisanal meats, CLINK. celebrates the season with Thanksgiving dinner reservations that showcase local ingredients and classic holiday favorites alongside our year-round offerings. Imagine roasted turkey paired with heirloom vegetables, savory stuffing, and creative takes on cranberry and pumpkin.
