My only complaint is that the price seemed high, but I think most of Boston hotels double their prices in May when tens of thousands of students are graduating all over the greatest Boston area. I was there for my daughter's Tufts graduation and Homewood Suites was just a bit more than 1 mile away. Parking is not fun in... More

For nearly 400$ per night this hotel delivers little value. The location is far out of town, the rooms and the decor are decorated in your grandmother's style from the 80s, the breakfast is served in plastic glasses and sometimes cardboard plates with plastic cutlery. At nearly $400 per night this is just not good enough. The room was made... More

We could have driven past this place for 4 years of visits and never knew it existed. it is a classic Homewood Suites - spacious room with kitchen, sitting area, nice bedroom. We had a heating/cooling issue, the unit didn't do anything except cool, but I turned it off and all was fine, luckily

The suite was spacious, clean, well equipped and very comfortable. I was on a business trip and it was great to be home-like, ie to be able to watch TV while eating dinner and not sitting on the bed! Much less expensive than hotels closer to downtown but easy access to the T.

Very nice accommodations for weekly business. Easy access, clean, pleasant. Breakfast cooked items were just so-so, but good selection of yogurt, fresh fruit, and juices. Fairly quiet. Convenient to CVS (quick, safe walk across parking lot). Good restaurants within walking distance.

It's a relatively new building and rooms and fittings are nice. The restaurant area is comfortable w/ fire place. Food quality is good base on my limited Homewood experiences. The hotel is located just (across the road) outside Cambridge. Local buses stop right outside the hotel. Commuting to Havard Common is ~10min. Get a weekly pass which covers both metro... More

Thought I reserved at least a queen room, seems it was a double. Coffee pot only a 4 cup one. Bathroom very small for two people to put their toiletries down. All staff very friendly and accommodating. Some missing items in the kitchen like 4 place settings, but only three knives and forks. No big deal this time, but could... More

This hotel is very nice. Each room as a kitchen and the cupboards and fixtures are much higher quality than an Extended Stay. Room was very large. Workout room was nice 3 treadmills and 2 ellipticals plus free weights. Very large area for breakfast and they do serve dinner which is included but I never ate there so cannot comment... More

Stayed there for 3 days in two rooms. Staff was great. Very friendly and helpful. Rooms are like a little apartment which I assume is the case with Homewood suites. With all the food that must go through the kitchen and elsewhere in this "little apartment", I was pleasantly surprised with how very clean they were. The free underground parking... More

You really can’t beat Homewood Suites when traveling with family or on business. There were 7 of us ranging in age from 20 to 81 yrs. We arrived early but were able to get our rooms right away. We had booked 2 studios but thankfully both rooms were upgraded to 1 bedroom suites. The living area was a bit cramped... More
