Residence Inn By Marriott Boston Cambridge

We are walkers and as such, the hotel's location is perfect for venturing across the pedestrian bridge over the Charles River and into Boston to explore if the weather is conducive to doing so. (A barely visible plaque memorializing Harry Houdini's 1908 plunge into the river from which he escaped is on the Boston side of the bridge.). *Public transportation is a 5 or so minute walk and you can short cut through the Marriott a block away. The transit system is clean, user friendly and inexpensive. *Breakfast offerings were plentiful and good; kitchen staff kept the food coming and were very attentive. *Special shout outs to Doug in the Theory Bar & Lounge and front desk personnel Zalma and Keecha - always smiling and and happy to answer questions, give directions and make suggestions. $20 of the daily $30 destination fee included in the room rate can be used in the bar and lounge so use it! The pesto flatbread is wonderful . TIPS: (There is significant construction directly across the street from the hotel entrance so request a room on the other side of the hotel. Our room overlooked a garage but we were not there for the view - and the room prevented any outside noise). Our entire stay was impressively quite. Brothers Market is a short walk away and served well to fill the fridge with water, milk, fruit and individual salads to pair with our Theory meals.

“Best Hotel In Boston”

The Residence Inn in Cambridge stands out as the best we have ever experienced. Although we have long been loyal to Marriott, we have always been a bit hesitant about the Residence Inn chain. This hotel completely exceeded our expectations. Sleek, clean, and futuristic, it felt like stepping into a completely different chain. From the moment we walked in, the staff was kind and kept us smiling all day. The front desk attendant went above and beyond, surprising us with an upgrade to a one-bedroom suite and making sure we never went thirsty with complimentary water throughout our stay Room 901 felt like our own private apartment—spotless and roomy. It includes a full kitchen, a big living area, a massive bedroom, and a bathroom with its own water closet. My only complaint is that the mattress was a bit firm for my liking. It is ideal for extended stays, and the pull-out sofa is a lifesaver if your partner is in the dog house lol! Finding a reasonably priced hotel in Boston can feel like a chore, but this spot is a true gem. Just an easy five-minute walk from Kendall/MIT Station, it sits in a clean, safe neighborhood. We paid $279 for a holiday weekend night, and while the destination fee was a bit of a nuisance, it did include a complimentary meal at the downstairs restaurant. Our late-night adventures led us to delicious drinks, crispy truffle fries, and a goat cheese flatbread that was to die for. If you are searching for the best hotel in Boston, this is the place to be!

Fancy staying in somewhat heart of Cambridge and close to Logan International Airport and Boston tourist gems - Residence Inn by Marriott is your call. Prices are still quite steep but for extended stay and short term visit it does offer flexibility. I stayed in larger suite due to my Bonvoy status and room had more than enough space to host a small family...way above my needs...but who would complain about extra space. lol Now about room for improvement. AC is quite noisy and would wake you up, so does a refrigerator. Pillows are slim so if you like me need neck support...well...I used a sofa cushion. For squeamish people, towels almost always had long human hair in them...disgusting if you have it on your face while using a towel. Bar is cosy and staff is good. Breakfast is standatrd American style but still has variety. Overall, stay here if your boss tells your to go with cost saving option. There is a parent Marriott next door...yet to stay there. Will share my experience there if I do.
