My wife, our 21 year old son, and myself stayed at Harding House for 6 nights in room 31 on the third floor. Room 31 is a family room with a queen and 2 twin beds. The third floor stays very warm from the rising heat of the house, so the window air conditioner has to be run, even on... More

A lovely bed and breakfast in an old blue building that dates back to the 19th century. It has been tastefully refurbished, while maintaining the period touch. Expect a decent breakfast (cereals, eggs, bread, hot tea and coffee). You can actually have tea or coffee and light snacks through the day. It's a 15-minute walk to Harvard Square and just... More

I stayed two nights at Harding House in early May 2013 with a friend. I had booked the Balsam Fir room for 3, with one queen-sized bed and one single bed, as that was the only type they had that could accommodate two persons who did not want to share one bed! Our room was cozy and big enough for... More

We stayed 2 nights at the Harding House in Cambridge during our visit to Boston to cheer our son in the Boston Marathon. Our room was pleasant but not "special," certainly clean and neat. During our stay, the exterior of the building was being painted, so there was plenty of noise...banging, shouting and our windows were papered over. The front... More

This was an excellent location for us as a family as we wanted to be near the T to travel into downtown Boston to see the touristy things and also near Harvard to visit my niece in the evening.There are great diners and coffee shops around Harvard.I agree it is expensive but no more so than other accomodation and hotels...

This Inn is in Cambridge - so I guess it is only overpriced compared to what you would get elsewhere (by quite a bit). There don't seem to be a lot of options to stay in this area that are affordable. At $275/night (tax included) my expectations are a bit higher than what was offered - not particularly interested or... More

Firstly, I'd suggest that this was a hotel rather than a B&B, certainly compared to some of the other B&Bs we'd experienced on our trip to New England. The desk staff are very friendly, the room was fine, and its location is good. The breakfast lets it down a little: not very much choice and the pastries were a little... More

Based on a past overnight at the Irving House, sister property to the Harding House, we booked here for an overnight prior to our son's move-in the following morning. Our room had a queen bed for us and a twin for our son, along with a private bath, so it was perfect for our needs. The staff were very friendly... More
