I know Glen asked our Admin to check in to hotel info and I just checked with her.

Here are the two best options that are close to Macromedia.
Out address is:
270 Grove Street
Newton, MA 02466

Boston Marriott Newton 
http://www.marriotthotels.com/dpp/PropertyPage.asp?MarshaCode=BOSNT
2345 Commonwealth Avenue
Newton, MA 02466
USA
Phone: 1-617-969-1000
Fax: 1-617-527-6914

The Macromedia negotiated rate is a (steep) $169 per night.  
There is a shuttle bus to the Riverside Office Park, where MM is located.

BOSTON-NEWTON (I-95), MA
Holiday Inn
399 Grove St.
NEWTON, MA 02462
UNITED STATES
Local Phone: 1-617-9695300

This hotel has 2 big advantages in my book
1. It is walking distance to Macromedia
2. It is walking distance to the Green line "T", the Boston subway.
3. It's cheaper at (from the web site) $129 per night.

OK, I lied there are three good reasons to go there.  But it probably isn't as nice as 
the Marriott, but hey its a Holiday Inn, so you aren't going to go too wrong.

There is also a Weston, a Double Tree Guest Suites (very nice!), and a Sussex Chalet 
up Rt. 128/I95 a ways in Waltham, MA.  If you have a rental car are very short drives 
away (5 miles or so).  I know of no compelling reason to prefer these hotels over ones 
that are close or ones that are actually in Boston.

You could stay downtown also, since Macromedia is on the Green Line T train line (at 
the very end).  I would get a place that was very close to the Green line stops.  Any 
hotel in "Copley Square" or Copley Place (c.f. 
http://www.marriott.com/epp/default.asp?MarshaCode=BOSCO) would probably fit that 
criteria.  Make sure you call and make sure you can catch the "D" line from the hotel.
