Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers nice firm beds, clean rooms, and great service, making it an excellent choice for business meetings. However, there were some issues with noise in the halls, and it seemed like there was an evacuation going on. Overall, a decent place to stay.
My stay at the hotel was enjoyable overall. The rooms were clean and spacious, perfect for accommodating two adults and a teenager. The service was exceptional with attentive and friendly staff making us feel welcome. The central location was convenient for exploring Boston and its universities, yet the dining experience was a bit overpriced. The facilities met my expectations for a comfortable stay.
My stay at Le Meridien Boston Cambridge was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable, but the loud noise from the system going on and off was a bit disruptive. The service, especially from the friendly valet, was exceptional, but the add-on costs, particularly for parking and valet, were a downside. The location was perfect, convenient to MIT, Harvard, and downtown Boston, beating the Boston traffic, but the generic modern ambiance was a bit too common. The dining experience was a letdown with terrible breakfast options, but the wide selection of nearby options made up for it.
The hotel had a unique room decor that felt outdated and neglected, but the service was quick and cheerful. The location was exceptional for visiting MIT, with special offers and easy access to dining options. The dining experience was overpriced, but the facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had a pretty clean and neat room, but unfortunately, the noisy air filtration turning on and off throughout the night disrupted my sleep. The location was great, close to various amenities and transportation options, although not as close to MIT. The service was wonderful, with cheerful and helpful staff. The dining was a bit pricey, though the quality was good. The hotel had generic modern facilities with bright lights and a black and white aesthetic.
