Get a 7-day T pass. It costs $18 and is very useful for transportation around the city.

Go to Fenway and do the tour and go to a game.

You can do the Sam Adams Tour. We had a lot of fun drinking there.

Duck Tours are good for seeing the city via a guided tour.

If you have a lot of free time, the Freedom trail is historic and neat.

There are much better brewery tours than Sam Adams. Check out Harpoon.

Also, a trip out to Fenway if the Sox are playing.

Wish I could help on the hotels but I'm not too knowledgable on that.

There's more restaurants than I can count that are worth going to, so thats all going to be dictated by your price point and type of food you like.

This is almost exactly what we did. Except we went in November so we couldn't go to a game, but we did tour Fenway. Sam Adams was ok, but nothing awesome and a little out of the way. We did a brewery tour that was really fun - LINK. Duck tour was a nice way to start off the trip so we could see a bunch of stuff and go back to the things we wanted to later.

My only disagreement is the freedom trail. I wouldn't just go if you have free time, I would make it a point to go. Especially, the first half of it. You can get a pretty cheap walking tour that leaves from Boston Common - LINK. Bu then again, I think that kind of stuff is pretty interesting so I don't mind spending a half a day or day on going to see historical sites.
