Fantastic views and fun for little kids. We took our baby up and he loved pointing at all the buildings and cars driving on the roads bellow. The miniature diorama of the city was super cool as well.

Best Views In All of Boston

Jordy_R, Mar 2026
The views from the top of the Prudential Center are amazing! We got there around 6:15 pm And stay till about 7:15ish. On this day the outside deck was closed due to high winds, but besides that it's amazing up there. You can see Fenway Park, Logan airport and The Encore casino and beyond. I want with my partner but it is good for any occasion including kids, elderly or groups. Definitely recommend.

Amazing Time

My 1 year old had the time of his life! He truly enjoyed the views and sights of it all! I was nervous at first but the moment we went in he was full of joy and amazement!

A great view above the hustle and bustle!

Michelle_H, Mar 2026
It was a cool experience to see Boston from up above and be able to orient myself to all of the places I had visited. It was very open, clean, and the music that was rolling was an added treat.

Cool views!

Arian_A, Feb 2026
Cool to checkout but definitely a one and done thing. Unfortunately with the recent snow you couldn't go out on the deck which was a bummer. There was also a private event which blocked some of your access. Amazing views though

GIRISH_S, Jan 2026
It gets very cold on the outdoor decks. It is usually closed during snowing. But overall a wonderful experience.

Not to exciting

Peter_T, Jan 2026
The view is ok. Half of the deck was closed off for private party. The Beacon was closed so not much we could do

Beautiful

What An Awesome View Of Boston

Very well organized and...

Rachelle_S, Oct 2025
Very well organized and informative. Huge area so no crowds and multiple levels .. you can stay indoors or also enjoy open air views

Bad Weather

James_A, Oct 2025
Unfortunately through no fault of their own, a noreaster came in while we were visiting Boston so we were not able to see very much. We did meet a very nice man that works for Boston View. His name is Ben. He spent a lot of time talking about things in Boston and the surrounding area that we were not able to see because of the weather.

Great experience but unclear directions

Amy_R, Oct 2025
The experience once you got up was great. Unfortunately the directions of how to find it are missing crucial information so we walked for ages around the location trying to find the entrance.

Observation was closed due to construction
