Top Harvard Yard Hotel Reviews

The Atlas Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Brand new hotel and wonderful staff. Convenience location to attend Harvard events."

Cambria Hotel Boston Somerville

10/10 Excellent

"This is my third stay at the Cambria Somerville. Each time I've stayed has been an excellent one. It is rapidly Boston. The staff is always welcoming and helpful--ready to help with just about any need you may have. The location is also great! Close to the T, Davis and Porter Squares. The rooms are spacious with great working space and very clean. The gym has all the basic equipment. I haven't yet had to avail myself of the laundry room, but it's good to know it is there. My only complaint is the parking--very expensive and not complimentary for hotel guests, but it's only a complaint when I drive to Boston."
