{Edited walking (thanks Ron) and driving directions]

boston.bestparking.com shows that there is cheap parking that's about 0.7 miles from the hotel. Not too far from the hotel, but you might want a ride to/from the parking lot if it's cold.

Parking at "Central Channelside" parking lot varies from $12 per day for week days to $6 per day for Sat/Sun. They only accept cash.

The official address is 6 Necco St, Boston, MA, but Google Maps shows it in the wrong location (about two blocks east of where it should be). To find the lot from the Westin, turn left onto Summer St. Go past the traffic light for the Convention Center, and keep going until you're surrounded by brick buildings at the next traffic light, turn left onto Melcher St, and then right on to Necco St. About two (short) blocks later is the entrance to the parking lot (opposite a parking garage).

If you look at the location of the parking lot in an aerial/satellite view, you'll see the Necco St does not continue to Binford St.

To walk back to the hotel, go back down Necco St., to Melcher St., and turn left onto A Street. On your left will be a set of stairs that will take you back up to Summer St, which is above you. Once at the Summer St. level, turn right and head back to the Westin. Walking, it should be about a half mile.

This parking lot looks like it could be ideal if not for this. Would it be possible for someone to at least ask the entities that runs this site if it would be possible to have it available for arisia next year (assuming arisia is still at the weston)?
