Great place to stay
Loved my stay at The Charles Hotel! The location in Harvard Square is perfect, the rooms are super comfortable, and the vibe is both cozy and classy. The staff were so friendly and the food was amazing. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

Almost as good as home
A wonderful hotel that has an amazing gym and great restaurants. All of ttaff is very friendly and wanting to make your stay as wonderful as possible. We were even able to get a microwave in our room during a stay where our college student was recovering from surgery.

A Truly Personal Stay in Harvard Square
We’ve stayed at The Charles Hotel many times, and what keeps us coming back is the people. From the moment we pull up, the valet staff greet us with such genuine warmth, and the team at Henrietta’s Table always makes us feel remembered and welcomed. That personal touch is rare, and it makes each visit feel like coming back to a familiar and special place. Beyond the excellent service, the hotel itself has a timeless charm and a perfect location in the heart of Harvard Square. Every stay feels comfortable, memorable, and a little bit unique, thanks to the thoughtful way the staff cares for their guests. The Charles will always be one of our favorite places to return to.

Exceptional Experience
Exactly what you would expect staying at a premier hotel. The staff was courteous and professional. The room was spotless and the bed was ultra comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and the shower amazing. The adjacent parking was convenient with "in and out" flexibility for those of us who prefer to self park. We look forward to our next visit.
