Hotels in Cambridge

Remember to use HoteITully.ᴄᴏm when booking your stay. This website will compare countless booking websites and usually will have prices much cheaper compared to others! Thank me later on! This resort is one of the highest rated in this area. I've been coming here for years. If you choose this place you for sure won't be let down. Nice hotel with a cool retro feel to it. I particularly loved the corner...

Great view from Floor 24! Amazing gym! One of my favorite Marriotts. Lovely staff. The location is fantastic; you can walk, rent a bike and have lots of restaurant choices. (Picture taken from my hotel room window.)

They definitely try. The room is small. The small footprint is not unique for a city hotel but the low stepped ceilings made it feel even smaller. I’m 5ft 5inches tall (basketball was never in my future) and could touch the ceiling….it’s overpriced for what you get but convenient to the MIT Sloan building. The staff was awesome awesome (double awesome).

The hotel was clean, comfortable and modern, but what really made our stay was Norma at the front desk. She treated me like a friend she'd known for years not a client to file in the appropriate room. She was professional, knowledgeable and personable. It felt like I had ally and peer on the inside to help me be comfortable during my stay. Authentic customer service in a world that's almost forgotten...

Very expensive, and the restaurant service was much slower than seemed rational… likely because I am not a platinum member. The M-club food was good (just plan for everything to take an hour longer that in any other restaurant). The room was small but tidy. Good hotel gym, but all the running machines fill up quick in the morning. Overall, I’d recommend finding another hotel at half the cost 2 minutes...

The front desk was amazing. My wife was greeted warmly and efficiently by Employee#32(forgive us, we lost her name) and checkout was also well done by Arasia. We attended a wedding and stayed overnight. The room was clean and spacious. The wait staff at the wedding reception and morning brunch were gracious and professional. We were extremely pleased with our stay here and the employees here definitely...

The hotel was a lot busier than I expected. There was a lot of noise coming from the surrounding rooms with kids running wild or people just having a conversation at 3am outside the door. The room itself was comfy and I had a great nights sleep! The bathroom was clean but a little dated. Careful with the river view room upgrades, the room I was in only had a partial river view which doesn't look like...

This hotel has a great location and could be a wonderful experience, but the service was not good on our trip. I joined a friend at the end of a 2-week stay for a conference. The AC unit leaked onto my bed during the night. Maintenance fixed it, but no one changed the sheets. I think this could be a great hotel, but they might have some hiring issues right now.

Location is great and if you get a balcony view, it's a great overlook of the river. The room itself was fine. There were some nice touches and the bed was pretty comfy. No actual complaints over my short one night stay. Very quiet too. There is a Starbucks on premise which is nice. For me though, the highlight was the views and getting to watch the sweep rowing teams from the balcony.

This review is only for the restaurant. Dante was just OK. It was quiet and had gorgeous views on a Friday night which was great! It was also decorated nicely and the chairs weren't terrible. Unfortunately, the food was just eh. We split four appetizers then each got a small main. Nothing was excellent and everything was very expensive. Our waiter was also EXCEPTIONALLY awkward. Overall I would not...

Just went to meet friends at the bar. Had a great time! Bartender was cool and made me my drink even though he ran out of a liquor in the process!

Very nice hotel w/beautiful interior design throughout. Friendly staff. Comfortable beds. Great toiletries. ALWAYS the bonus is having a bathrobe waiting 4 me in my room!!! Which comes standard w/every room. No microwaves anywhere on property!

I stayed here on a business trip. I was here for an early check in and, unfortunately was not able to be accommodated due to full booking the night before. However, the staff was able to accommodate this and store my luggage until a room was available allowing me to go out and enjoy some time visiting Boston. My luggage was delivered directly to my room. The rooms were well maintained and clean. I...

Great. Cool corporate hotel. loved it. Interesting inner courtyard going on with indoor room balconies which are strange but fun. Glass elevators. Beautiful views. River walk out the back with bunnies galore. Too many bunnies...had to be dozens, it was scary, cute and amazing.

Beautiful hotel. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and the views of the river from the rooms are immaculate. The restaurants are very good, and the service and staff at the front desk and restaurant are cordial and attentive. My one issue is the location to downtown Boston. There is no hotel shuttle so you have to drive 15 - 20 minutes to get downtown, and parking in Boston is very expensive. As...

Second time staying here for the weekend. I love what they did with the lobby renovation. Spacious room with great view of the Charles River. You can easily find free parking on Vassar street and it’s free for the whole weekend. The only down side is when there is a wedding going on, the elevator wait can get very long even there are 4 elevators. Aside from that, when we finally got to the first floor...

Overall a great stay. If you haven’t been in a while there are some changes to the lobby and restaurant. The restaurant was disappointing with a very limited menu and so so food. We had planned to have dinner there, so made do with the small menu. Our waitresses were great. Room service is no longer available which was a disappointment. There’s not a lot of food options within walking distance....

Bed is comfortable, room is spacious, tv is massive. The hotel has an indoor swimming pool and outdoor area with loungers. Fitness room is off of the swimming pool area. The lobby has a store with snacks, drinks, and souvenirs. Parking is hourly with the option of valet. Overnight parking is $40. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.

The hotel is very conveniently located close to the shops and restaurants in Harvard Square but a few streets back so that it is quiet. I enjoyed my breakfast at the hotel restaurant Henrietta's Table. I had a great view from my ninth floor room. Staff were very helpful and understanding; they organized a mini fridge for my room. My bed was very comfortable and my triple room was also very spacious...

The Charles Hotel was the perfect home for our wedding weekend on December 31, 2022. No one could've taken care of us, our family, and our friends better. From the months prior of expert planning with Jennifer Halpin, to the day of execution, on a holiday no less, with the most pleasant staff... we were blown away. The reservations team, including Ariana Ricci, was responsive and kind while handling...

Great hotel with very friendly staff. Fitness room is a little bit of a euphemism. Cafe ok. Beds are amazing and interior throughout the hotel very nice.

To Alex, Jennifer and the entire staff at The Charles Hotel, You helped us achieve all of our daughter’s and new son in law’s wedding of their dreams. From the minute we arrived to the end of an enchanted wedding reception we are all so very grateful. A wedding is not an easy event to plan, however you and your staff made it look easy! Thank you for everything we couldn’t be happier today. The parents...

This hotel is very conveniently located close to Harvard Square's shops and restaurants and the T station. Our room was very comfortable and quiet with a nice view over the central courtyard. The hotel's restaurant Henrietta's Table serves a good breakfast. Staff were very helpful and understanding organizing a refrigerator for my room. This is a great place to stay right next to Harvard Square.

No pool!!!!! I was really looking forward to swimming for my back, since I spent all day either driving a great distance or visiting my mom all day at a nearby hospital for esophageal cancer. The pool was the biggest draw for my picking this hotel aside from the great restaurant and location within Boston. The atmosphere was really nice but I will admit I was little surprised by the lack of AC in...

This was a nice dog friendly hotel. Beds are very comfortable, and the restaurant inside had great food. Coffee bar in the morning and a free wine hour from 5-6pm. Also, they do dollar oysters from 5-7pm, and they were prepared so well. I took away one star just because, unfortunately, the gym was closed, but they do give you passes to use a local gym, which was close enough to walk to. The ice machines...

Our first visit. Interesting design. Nice lobby. Excellent staff. We had no problem checking our bags hours before our room was ready. The room was big and bright. The bathroom needed maintenance - peeling wall paper/paint and a rusting tub drain. Also there seems to be no bathroom ventilation. The bathroom remained fogged for an hour after a shower. The underground parking garage is a complete...

Excellent choice for those doing business in Cambridge. They offer wine at 5:00 p.m. and free coffee for most of the morning. Full bar service with breakfast, lunch and dinner options. Staff is professional and courteous. Great location and walkable to the Charles river bike and walking path and the shopping mall.

One of the best hotels that I’ve stayed at with dogs, both in terms of accommodations and service. The front desk staff was very welcoming and offered dog treats, dog bowls and even dog beds free of charge. The rooms were modern and spacious. Exactly what we needed.

Staff are wonderful! Rooms were dated but functional. Beds were clean and very comfortable. The fitness center was small, but they had more equipment than I was expecting with a filtered water dispenser and chilled towels. LOVE that they are pet friendly and you can get dog water and food dishes delivered to your room! The less to pack when traveling with a pup the better! There is also a park directly...

We had a fantastic stay. We came into town to visit friends, some of whom live north of the city and others who live south of the city. This was a convenient location to easily get to central meet ups, as well as for enjoying kid friendly attractions like the aquarium and the museum of science. The hotel itself is beautiful and the room was spacious enough for our family of four. We had a gorgeous...

Great hotel. Very clean. The room was spacious and beautiful. $39 for parking a day is pretty steep though. But it is in a very convenient location. Close to a lot of fun activities.

Solid hotel for a business trip - friendly and efficient front desk check-in. Rooms are well appointed, including irons that work and proper hair dryers. Front staff accommodated our reasonable requests quickly and happily. No complaints! There is also a Trader Joe's within 5 minutes walk.

Great location and rooms. The staff are friendly. The restaurant has good food. The city/river views are amazing and worth the cost. Sunrise or set on the Charles River is beautiful. There's a Starbucks, Trader's Joe's and Whole Foods nearby. You can also walk to Harvard square on a nice day. The only downside is the small gym

Great venue for an event. We made some Tee Shirts for some teenagers. Location staff, and facility is perfect for a medium sized venue. One of my favorites around Boston.

Great location. Accessible from Boston Downtown. Close to Harvard n MIT. Great views of the city from top floors. Has a bistro n a Japanese restaurant. Plenty of options to order in too.

We loved our stay. Some discrepancy on rates tho. Our first night, we booked online and a FANTASTIC rate. Our 2nd night, due to our flight being cancelled (thanks, Irma!) The manager gave us a "deal" which was about $70 higher on one room and $50 on the other. We weren't super happy but it was the best deal we found so we stayed anyway. Great location!

I stayed at this hotel for more than 6 weeks on one of my work trips and super liked the accommodation. The rooms are spacious, bed and other furniture were comfy and reasonably new. My room had a decent work desk and chair and the kitchen was fully functional. During my long stay the room service never missed out on their schedule and overall it was a pleasurable stay.

Rooms were large and clean with all the amenities you need. Staff is very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of tables and comfortable places to set up a laptop and work for a few hours after breakfast service is complete. Convenient to coffee shops and restaurants (always important for work travel) and a lovely little park next door.

We had a great stay in a very nice room. The rooms are newly renovated and very nice. The hotel is well appointed and in a great spot. Only issue we had was that there was poor water pressure in the bath/shower. Other than that, everything was fine.

Room was comfy and spacious Location was perfect within walking distance to the metro station Enjoyed the breakfast and the bar was also a nice place to relax

Attended a meeting at this hotel. The staff was very courteous and parking was easy which is a rarity in Cambridge. The bar in the hotel was great for after meeting drinks.

Have been visiting here for years. Newly remodeled lobby bar. Nice property with great staff. Very close to Central Square for dining options. Reasonable walk to Kendall Square and MIT.

Higher end hotel that's conveniently located in Cambridge. Sparkling wine at check in and a beautiful lobby. Rooms are very comfortable and quite. Lots and f light fixtures and nicely decorated. Room service is pricey but very good. Overall recommended but definitely on the pricey side.

This hotel doesn't feel like a Le Meridien. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it feels more like a Westin. Good location if you're in town for any MIT-related event.

I was married at this hotel 11yrs. Ago different management then now including ownership this place was beautiful then .... They let this place turn into motel not hotel..and the decor wasn't as nice as before and I have an eye for nice and contempary , minor resemblance of the past but just not the same. Even the bar/ restaurant is not lively. I wish they make the place look polished more then it...

Clean rooms, very nice and accommodating staff. Gave our entire sports team late checkouts so that we could shower after our tournament finished. Great cleaning service.

This hotel has an amazing staff, everyone is really nice and willing to help. BUT, it has terrible ENVIRONMENTAL and RECYCLING processes. I’ve been here for a month and could see the huge waste each day is created. All plates and cutlery are single use only. All towels are washed every day. Definitely a huge awareness and planet care is needed.

If you want extremely comfortable beds, modern clean rooms, and a great location for exploring Boston or Cambridge, this is the place to stay. The hotel is a 5 min walk to the Lechmere stop on the greenline, and an easy location to uber to from Cambridge or Boston. The hotel staff was friendly, the breakfast was well-stocked with good variety. We didn't hear any other guests when in our room, had...

This hotel has the BEST location for the price. It’s a 5 min walk to the train station where you can go anywhere in Boston so we didn’t need a car. On top of that, the room was spacious and CLEAN! Housekeeping did a great job with our room, we really appreciated it. The breakfast was probably the best I’ve had for continental breakfast in the past few years. Lots of variety and snacks to go! The front...

This location is perfect. Super clean. Absolutely friendly staff that helped us out with more than one thing. Parking was perfect. Our proximity to what we were doing in town was awesome. Only about an 8 minute drive. Warm breakfast was nice with turkey, sausage, egg, omelets, breads, etc. Couldn't have been a better experience.

My wife and I stayed at this Holiday Inn for a weekend getaway. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! Edith, the receptionist at the front desk is absolutely amazing! If I were her boss, I would certainly be giving her a raise. The beds are comfortable. The hotel and rooms are very clean and appealing. The hotel is located in a safe location that is only a couple minutes walk to the Boston...

Stayed here recently because I'm racking-up membership points. This place is clean, fresh, and the staff was on-point. Would stay again. It's not quite in the middle of stuff, but the small parking lot is right on the street, and you can come and go as you please, or just walk.

this is a truly excellent marriott. they respond quickly to room service requests via app, the lobby is wonderfully decorated for Christmas and smells wonderful, free hot breakfast included and coffee always available, excellent convenient location for my brisk walking commute to MGH. highly recommend this hotel

Nice hotel. It had a microwave which was nice. Hotel was nice clean entry new. Small parking lot for $40 a day(Aug 2022). Only a 13 min walk for museum of science, and 10 minute drive from Quincy Market and Fennel Hall. Right next to the Green subway line which is a five 5 walk . Good compromise if your looking to pay a little less rather than staying downtown.

We had an excellent stay. The room was clean and well-appointed. The breakfast was substantial and there was a lot of variety on offer. But most of all, the staff was the BEST! We were staying after my husband had a medical procedure at Mass General and everyone was kind, compassionate, helpful and very friendly. What a pleasure, especially in these times of often less-than-stellar customer service...

Clean, new with modern decor. Beds are comfortable. Very helpful, friendly and accommodating staff. Decent breakfast included. Bar closed Saturday night. We really wanted to have a cocktail in front of the lovely fireplace in the lobby. Disappointing. Wish we had known. Would have stayed somewhere else. Previous reviews complained about noise from traffic. Hotel is in Boston. Comes with the territory...

Convenient location. Nice amenities. Parking. All good. Noise insulation is poor. You can hear all your neighbors.

Rooms are very small. My bathroom water smelled off. Every time I went near the bathroom I could smell it. They had very comfortable beds. Overall decent stay!

On my second night staying there, the shower handle to change the temperature and turn on the water fell off and to the ground with a heavy clank. I'm glad it didn't hit my feet! Never had that happen before, even at much more budget hotels. When I talked to the front desk, I had to be the one to suggest switching rooms (as it could apparently not be repaired at that hour), which was granted but a...

Every staff member I have talked to is very helpful and friendly. Thank you to the front desk manager in the morning who kindly allowed me to use the luggage cart to move my daughter’s luggage to the Harvard Yard. The late check in the night before was very smooth and fast so that we could enter our room and start rest immediately after a long and late flight. Overall very nice experience. The room...

Perfect location. And they charge for that a lot!! Rooms are a little tight. Clean, modern. Hardly a reception area, just coffee in the lobby.

Good facilities and the approch of the entire staff is cordial too. They help you for almost everything. Manager is doing a great job. The rooms of the hotel is also so good. Specious rooms and the positive vibes are here.

The location is great, it's walking distance to a lot of locations around Harvard. I have a few bad points about this hotel: the wifi is spotty, slow, and potentially insecure, the toilet paper is thin and rough, the elevator is small and very slow, and the room keeping woke me up at 8. The rooms themselves are pretty standard but one lamp in my room was broken. The walls are also pretty thin, I was...

Rooms are ok, but on the small side. There's only a tiny desk and a cube to sit on. Fortunately, I didn't need to work in the room. Some minor quips, the thermostat was broken, the shower had not much pressure and the flow was barely enough to get wet, and the toilet kept running. The main advantage of Hotel Truth is its excellent location to Harvard square.

After a chance find we quickly booked into this hotel given the great looking pictures of the rooms. We were not disappointed! The friendly staff greet you on arrival and offer any choice of drinks available 24/7…all sorts of coffee on offer and fruit teas. A lovely reception lobby awaits you if you wish to hang around downstairs (see pictures). The room itself was exactly as described..modern bathroom...

Great room, albeit small and with varying water pressure. Extremely helpful staff. And an elevator you suspect might hold you hostage at the ground floor, but that's flavor

We made a group booking for our wedding party and guests. Justin was very accommodating to our requests and responded promptly. This is a beautiful boutique hotel so the rooms are all different (but on a small side). While one or two rooms are a little tired, overall everyone who stayed loved the ambience and found the staff to be polite, very helpful and discreet. There was no room service except...

If you just need to basics, this is a good spot to go to. Rooms are clean, but cozy. Internet is extremely spotty; complimentary water, coffee, and tea is a nice touch.

A bit noisy, probably depending on which room you get. It's a lovely little boutique hotel in a good location with friendly staff. There is some train and street noise, but I'd stay again.

Parking is a nightmare, but it's a city business. Bed part was great, very comfortable. The breakfast part was very Comfort Inn like, little disappointed.

I stayed at Irving house 5 years back when visiting MIT, and I really liked it, so I came back when I was visiting MIT again. I took a single room with shared bath. The room is perfect for a single person. It's compact yet efficient. The bed was also very comfortable. It's perfect for a short stay, if you are out for work on campus mostly. I always found the bathrooms available. It's a little bit of...

Cute, clean B&B. Cold, good tasting water plus tea and coffee available all day. There’s even a porch in the front where you can hang out at any time of the day. Thirteen minutes from the closest T stop. In a very quiet part of Cambridge.

We had a great stay in a private queen room (w/ private bathroom). The breakfast was incredible each morning. The rooms are a little warm, but staff accommodated me by not only turning the thermostat slightly cooler, but also by providing me with a small fan, making it the perfect temp in the room. We didn't use the laundry facilities, but they are available and coin operated. There is an ice machine...

The Irving house is extremely cozy - in a good way. Mildly secluded, but not so that it isn't a short walk to the Harvard Square with a great selection of restaurants and eateries. Rooms are very clean and the people at the front desk very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend. Update: To whom it may concern, there was never hot water in the shower (late June).

This is a nice place near Harvard. It's really halfway between a B&B and a small hotel. Friendly staff. Small room, but good bed. Air conditioning didn't quite do it for me, but I like it cool. IMPORTANT TIP: There is no elevator. I counted 51 steps from the breakfast area to my room on the top floor. It's OK if you are young or in good shape, but I saw some elderly having issues. If you are in that...

Very nice boutique hotel with unique flavor of New England. Convenient to every place. Warm reception.

A very pretty Inn, perfect location, great parking, wonderful breakfasts. However... I never truly felt welcome. Staff in general was just not very friendly.

Very nice, clean, comfortable room. Great restaurants in walking distance. Can walk from train station. Inn has afternoon tea and 2 choices of breakfast included in room price.

I've only been in the Boston area for 8 days but so far so good 👍 I'm loving my accommodations. It's a unique large home that's clean, the owners are inviting, friendly down to earth people. It's in a fairly decent neighborhood and very close to shopping of all kinds and local eateries. It's also within 30mins (on public transit) of BWH which is great for me. I'm saving a lot of $$$ not having to...

A little pricey perhaps, and the shower wasnt getting hot water (but tough). But I slept well, the place was clean and comfortable, and that was what was important. Lugging a heavy suitcase up two flights of narrow, steep stairs was fun (not) but still, would possibly stay again should the opportunity arise.

Clean and cozy. Convenient to T stop. Nice area. Whole foods about a block away. Very responsive host.

Very cozy hotel, in a fairly central location. Very nice room, comfortable bed, well functioning WIFI included. Bath rooms are shared, but they are very nice and clean, and there seemed to be enough of them. I would absolutely use this again.

On the tail end of a trip to London, I stopped in Boston/Cambridge because it made flights a little cheaper. I don't really know my way around Cambridge, but did some basic research on crime and walkability. I picked Amory House for my first night (and eventually second night) stay. I had a great experience, but I also got a discount on the rooms. I don't think I'd be too excited about paying $90 a...

This place is PERFECT! They paid attention to every detail to make this the perfect stay. The breakfast was delicious and the bed was super comfy. The staff was extremely friendly and made me feel like part of the family. I will only stay here from now on! You have to stay here!!!!

Great fun. Staff fabulous. Really liked the rooms. Comfy bed. Fun decor and quiet. Breakfast a bit repetitive and calorific. Tasty initially but it turns out there is such a thing as too much bacon.

I can’t say enough about this place. Rooms were clean and comfy. The decor in the hotel was unique and very interesting (in a good way)! The staff were clearly willing to go out of their way to help with anything we needed. The hot breakfast was great and the location couldn’t be better—it’s less than 1/4 mile from the closest subway stop. So convenient!

The hotel is beautiful. The wine tasting is a joke. Small plastic cup with a cheap white and a cheap red wine then you’re cut off after being asked twice what my room number was. A little embarrassing. The room is warm, hopefully it will cool down.

A very wonderful discovery, one block from the T. Delicious hot breakfast. The hotel was very nicely decorated with a comfortable lobby. The room was very clean and spacious. Loved the comfortable bed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the Kendall will be our choice of hotels when we return to Boston.

Really nice, clean, spacious, and *new* rooms; came for a wedding. I got along with the valet, they were cool/had the best attitude, obligatory parking for vehicles. The service relates to the hotel staff/hotel security, and this next part: They wouldn’t however let us gather in the penthouse rooms (we had a smaller group of 15-25). The penthouse patio could’ve fit that many, even more. But we apparently...

This hotel is great. They even have a small game room with pool, shuttle board, and pinball machine. Valet parking is nice, but pricey. Wish the room/bathroom had an exhaust fan. Besides that, great experience. Josephine’s is attached and great!

I've stayed at this hotel a few times over the past year. While not amenity-rich, the rooms are quite spacious for the price and the staff has always been very friendly and helpful. Being able to text the front desk to ask questions and make requests is also a plus. Parking is valet-only, which can be expensive and slightly annoying if returning to the hotel late at night, though I understand the benefit...

This hotel has it all! My three kids (15, 13 & 10) loved hanging out in the game room which was actually made it super fun for us to meet with friends in the comfy sitting area just off the lobby. The room was clean and well appointed. The staff all were very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this hotel if you are meeting friends for a weekend—there’s so much to do in the surrounding area...
