Reviews for Charles Hotel
Expensive but worth it.
Always a solid choice, expensive, but an excellent experience. The location is great for walkability in Harvard Square and the room was very quiet and clean. I hope I can return sometime soon and try the food and drink offerings. The decor and design is unique and beautiful.

A Great Option for the Boston Marathon (or anytime, really)
Great accommodations for Marathon weekend. The hotel, located near some of the most historic and more scenic areas for shakeout runs, is also located close enough to bus pick up / finish line for easy access, but far enough away for decompressing post-race. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, the accommodations world-class, and it was overall a wonderful stay.

The Charles Hotel - best hotel in Cambridge.
The location is the best. Housekeeping went out of their way to make us feel valued. The restaurants and bars were great. The room was clean and tidy. Everyone we came in contact with at the hotel was friendly and helpful. We will stay here again!

Great Visit - Again
Stopped in at the Charles Hotel again for another wonderful stay. Great environment of Americana and New England charm, yet so convenient to the vibrancy of Cambridge. We love the people throughout the hotel from the staff to the interesting guests and a spirit of welcoming for all of us. Highly encourgage it as a great spot to enjoy time in and around greater Boston.

The Best Place to Stay in the Boston Area
i wish I could give this hotel 10 stars. Everything about it is fabulous: the spacious rooms, the delicious restaurant, an awesome fitness center, and the adjacent spa. But most of all is the excellence of service. They have you fill out a pre-visit check in and I requested a room with a bathtub--they obliged in a big way. And I learned that not every room has one, so they really paid attention. Easy check-in and check-out, great location, and efficient valet parking. I'll never stay anyplace else in the Boston area.
