Hotel prices are already very high in New York, Philadelphia and Boston where the French national team will play for the 2026 World Cup. We explain how to find accommodation at the best price.
The France national team will play its group matches of the 2026 World Cup in New York, Philadelphia and Boston on the East Coast of the United States.
Hotel prices in these cities have already soared, here are some tips and tricks to find cheaper accommodation!
Matches will be played at 3pm in New York and Boston, 5pm in Philadelphia. With matches during the day it is possible to stay outside the cities hosting these matches. Here are some solutions.
Philadelphia
The Lincoln Financial Field is served by the metro, buses, trams and trains. You can therefore easily move around Philadelphia which is quite large, or even go to Wilmington, Trenton, Hammonton...
Buses connect Philadelphia to New York in 2 hours. It is therefore possible to stay in New York and make the round trip for the match.
All practical information and transport details can be found on the Lincoln Financial Field page.
Boston
The Gillette Stadium is not in Boston but in Foxborough, halfway between Boston and Providence. You can therefore stay in one of these 2 cities. Note that there are 4 hours by bus or car between Boston and New York, 3.5 hours by car between New York and the Gillette Stadium.
All practical information and transport details can be found on the Gillette Stadium (Boston / Foxborough) page.
New York - New Jersey
With New York being a very large city, you have different options in different neighbourhoods of the city. With the match at 3pm you will have time to move around New York if your accommodation is far from the stadium.
The MetLife Stadium is connected by buses and trains.
All practical information and transport details can be found on the stadium page.
Remember to compare all accommodation sites.
Some hotels are only displayed on certain sites, make sure to check the different platforms or hotel chains. Don't hesitate to look at the hotels' own websites directly, where prices can sometimes be more interesting.
