Brandon Hall is a light rail stop on the MBTA Green Line "C" Branch in Brookline, Massachusetts. The station is named for Brandon Hall, a large hotel built in 1904 just south of the station. After housing 400 SPARS during World War II, it burned on April 26, 1947, but the station retained its name.
Brandon Hall station has two side platforms serving the line's two tracks. It is not handicapped accessible, although a wheelchair lift allows handicapped people to move between the two elevations of the two halves of Beacon Street at the station. With 356 daily passengers by a 2011 count, Brandon Hall was the second-least-used stop on the "C" Branch after Hawes Street.
