Hyatt Place Boston/Medford

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, under renovation."

Cambria Hotel Boston Somerville

10/10 Excellent

"Location was perfect for our needs this trip. Beds were a little too soft for me but my spouse found them very comfortable. Workout room was spacious and clean."

Beacon Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and easily accessible to the city"

AC Hotel by Marriott Boston North

"Good room happy a bit pricey that’s about it"

Porter Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel!"

Cambridge Common House

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing, from the communication days before our stay all the way to the very end and the checkout process. It was exactly what we were looking for - just a night out and a beautiful setting. The room was immaculate, the staff was warm and friendly, and the property is close to everything. Also everything from the linens to the towels and the hallways smells absolutely delicious and the books are just a fantastic extra in your room. Thank you!"

Irving House At Harvard

10/10 Excellent

"My wife thought the breakfast options were a bit limited (no breakfast meats or cold cuts), but it was perfectly fine with me."

AC Hotel by Marriott Boston Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Would absolutely stay again. Hotel is very conveniently located near a T station (8min walk through a well lit park) and right off the highway. You can take a 15m walk to really good local restaurants and a crazy good ice cream shop! Or drive, parking wasn’t too bad in Arlington. The hotel was very clean, parking was a breeze and the receptionist helped us sign up for rewards that got us free parking. Speaking of which the staff was very friendly. Lobby areas had a lot of seating if you’re waiting for a ride or you DoorDash dinner! We don’t drink but there was a bar that I believe served food as well. Didn’t try the breakfast but it looked quite good. The pool is pretty small but probably fun for guests with little ones. Gym had what I needed for vacation workouts. Overall I’d absolutely stay here again, I’d much rather pay $100’s less and catch the T to go anywhere I wanted saving that $$ for activism and great Boston food! Great staff, VERY clean and safe. Will be back!"
