We just returned from the Kendall and we were so impressed. My husband is a Fire Captain and we have 3 youung children, so we thought the fire motiff would be great, but it was better than great. A beautiful, extremely clean room, charming atmosphere throughout and such attentive staff. The breakfast was so filling we skipped lunch for an... more

Stayed 2 nights at the Kendall. The decor is charming, the restoration well done. It is very small. The King size room we had was not King sized - the bed (although comfortable) was more like a full size bed. There is no closet, only a wardrobe with three hangers that need to be hung on hooks because you can't... more

We've been traveling to Cambridge for years, ever since our son started college there, and now through five years of grad school. We've stayed in many of the good and better Cambridge hotels and the Kendall is by far our favorite. It 's a full service hotel with a B&B feel -- quiet, tastefully decorated, friendly, and serves a wonderful... more

I realy enjoy my staying. The food was great and the service even better. The location is perfect, just next to a metro station and a walking distance to cool restaurants and bars. more

I chose this hotel because of its location to MIT, and the T station so that I don't need to drive in Boston. I found the location is excellent as it was advertised. The hotel's front portion is based on the historical Engine 7 house. Most of the rooms are in the newly (2002) constructed 7-floor building. Our room was... more

This hotel is situated in a great place, between MIT and the MIT Press bookstore, right next door to the Kendall Square T stop, with Legal Sea Foods and Au Bon Pain right there. I couldn't want a better place. The hotel is cute and has a number of things going for it. The garden room upstairs is nice as... more

Nice place to stay albeit in a not-so-nice surrouding (anonymous office buildings). Close to subway. Breakfast space is very small (it's the area that also serves as bar) so a bit crowdy in morning and the buffet is set up in a clumsy way. Homey atmosphere; can recommend. more

great!!

We stayed at the Kendall for a week over the new year, and can`t praise it highly enough. Our room was very comfortable, and everything was changed daily. All the staff were friendly and helpful at all times. Next time we visit Boston it will be in warmer weather!!, but we will definately stay here again. Keith and Tracey, England more

The hotel was oversold and I was considering shortening my trip by one day, so when I tried to check in they bullied me into staying in another hotel for more money by saying they were going to charge me over $500 a night. I was sent to a hotel in Boston (20 minute cab ride) with no offer of... more
