The NFL’s New England Patriots have a truly New England home: They play at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, located about 20 miles from both Boston and Providence, Rhode Island. While staying near Gillette for either a game or a big-name concert means you’re not in the a big city, you will be near the shopping and dining complex called Patriot Place right outside the stadium, which offers plenty of ways to fill out a game day or concert evening. Here are the best hotels near Gillette, a few within walking distance and a few more within a short drive or shuttle ride.
Renaissance Boston Patriot Place Hotel (28 Patriot Pl.; 508-543-5500) Foxborough
“If you’re visiting the Boston area to catch a Patriots football game, this hotel is your ideal choice,” writes U.S. News & World Report, thanks to its super-close proximity (just 0.2 miles), its Four Diamond AAA status and amenities such as pool and an upscale restaurant. A Google reviewer calls the 156-room Renaissance an “amazing hotel! Across the parking lot from the stadium’s main entrance and a one-minute walk to food and shops.” >> Book this hotel for less

Staying at this hotel a quarter mile from Gillette, “I didn’t have to worry about parking and getting stuck in the lot for hours after the concert,” writes a Google reviewer about this 136-room Hilton Garden Inn. Another user notes that because it’s in the Patriot Place area, “the property is located in the midst of a plethora of restaurants and night clubs.” One Tripadvisor reviewer hints that location is perhaps the only reason to stay here, but writes that it is still a “very comfortable room. Good breakfast (not included). Indoor pool is small, but would be good for kids.” >> Book this hotel for less
