"A perfect place to stay in Cambridge"

10.0

Fantastic location, rooms, amenities and services. The perfect stay in Cambridge. The hotel is steps from Harvard Square with lots of options for dining or to get to other parts of town (e.g T) although they do have a fantastic ride service (free) should you need it as I did when I was late for my conference and it was raining. The rooms are perfectly appointed and the hotel offers a variety of options to relax over drinks or dinner after a long day. And for those of us who drive into Boston the garage, right under the hotel, is a big plus.

"Soggiorno consigliato"

10.0

This was our second time staying at this hotel, and once again we had a wonderful experience. The hotel is quiet, peaceful, very clean, and in a fantastic location. Breakfast at Henrietta’s is highly recommended. Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The only small downside was the bathrobe: although it feels very soft, it’s made of a synthetic fabric that isn’t very pleasant and doesn’t dry well. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
