The verdict

Seventeenth, level on 36 with four others and behind the Westin on parking, $59 valet to $55 self-park. The Seaport Hotel is AAA Four Diamond, with a heated indoor pool, TAMO Bistro + Bar over the harbor and a Silver Line station on site, and it calls its garage "one of the closer garages to the Massport Cruise Terminal".

A $25 daily destination fee covers a $15 food and drink credit, Wi-Fi and the Wave fitness center, and early arrivals can leave bags before 3 PM.

The parking page prints no multi-day price, though — and nothing says the car can stay while you sail. You must be 21 to reserve.

Leave the bags at the desk, and take a short cab to Black Falcon in the morning.

Book it if

  • Flyers riding the Silver Line in from Logan
  • Swimmers
  • Small-dog owners, under 25 lb

Look elsewhere if

  • You're under 21.
  • You want to avoid a destination fee.
  • You want to leave the car while you sail.

For 2026, check-in and boarding are in “a large tent along the water” while Massport upgrades the terminal, per reprints of Massport’s April 7 release.

Parking at the cruiseport

About $25 a day

Massport’s cruise parking is the Fargo Lot at 93 Fargo Street, run by SP+ and sold only as a prepaid reservation on Parking.com, with a free courtesy shuttle to the terminal; arrive from 7 a.m. and at least two hours before the ship leaves, per the Parking.com page. Neither that page nor Massport’s own site, which blocks automated reading, shows a daily rate we could read. Third-party guides put the cruiseport lots at about $25 a day, and CruiseHive lists Massport’s Lot D3 at $189 a week.
