Don't they have a travel department to worry about booking accommodations? I can confirm hotels in some cities (downtown Boston, for example), are crazy pricy these days. It seems like you can't even find a bad hotel under $450 depending on what is happening that week or weekend.

I live far enough out of Boston that I occasionally book hotel when I'm at a multi-day event and pricing in Boston and Cambridge are pretty much in line with NYC, SF, and other top dollar places.

But if I book “our of policy” for any reason, my explanation can be as simple as “I wanted to be in walking distance to the site” and have never gotten push back. Especially when it was for in house traffic (ie not billing a customer)
