Omni Parker House

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were top notch, but the property was too old for our taste so we couldn’t stay. Thank you for the smile and accommodation."

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time at this hotel! From the very first moment where they took our luggage and things from our rental car to our room to the super easy check out. Everyone was super nice and cordial. The location was exceptional! Restaurants around walking distance. Within walking distance to Boston Commons, restaurants, shopping, and the subway. Would definitely stay again and would recommend."

The Kendall Hotel at the Engine 7 Firehouse

10/10 Excellent

"Best hotel ever!! Great value for the area. The decor is very unique, the staff is absolutely wonderful going above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and welcome, there's paid parking underneath the hotel (which is hard to find in this area!), THE BEST FOOD (you HAVE to try their lobster rolls OMG!!), breakfast was super yummy (especially their muesli), it's walking distance to shops, dinning, etc., and even though it's in a very busy part of Cambridge there was no noise AT ALL in the room. The beds were incredible! like sleeping on clouds. The room smelled non-chemically divine! I have a hard time with perfumes and such but this was natural and rosey. The bathroom super clean too (as well as everything else) and very nice products. I would absolutely stay here again 200%!"
