I stayed in room 1123 for a conference. This room did not overlook the Charles River. They said that it would cost $50 more. The room was clean, but the sofa, the only sitting area besides the desk chair, was hard and uncomfortable. The water, for my shower, took 5 min. to warm up. This hotel is very convenient for...

We recently stayed here for five nights while apartment hunting. The location is excellent and the room was very comfortable, even for such a long stay. Our room was on the executive level. The Concierge Lounge is very nice and made a tremendous difference in our stay. Each morning, a delicious full breakfast was served and in the evening, the... More

My daughter just graduated college in Boston, and for 4 years I've tried all the area hotels. This hotel is one of the best, and the best around the MIT area, no contest. The red line T stop is directly out the door, and the MIT campus surrounds the hotel. Outstanding rooms, beds, facilities, service, ....a very good hotel. I... More

The Marriott Cambridge wins out on location alone - the Red Line stop is just outside the rear of the hotel. Aside from that, you get everything else you expect from a Marriott - great customer service, great amenities, and rooms. Will be back.

This is a standard hotel in a good location if you are going to visit MIT. Rooms are clean and come with shower and bath but the strangest thing is the lack of a in-room safe. The gym is ok, the pool is too small for swimming, If swimming is your thing during travel I would recommend another hotel like... More

This hotel is by far the worst Marriott and perhaps the worst hotel i have ever stayed in all time!!! I travel extensively and am a Marriott Rewards member so im used to staying in Marriott's around the country and the world. The entire hotel is circa 1980s with a sink that is as big as a postage stamp. My... More

starbucks downstairs - so, love the fact that I don't have to worry about coffee, breakfast, or wireless. views are great from the rooms easily accessible with public transport as the T line stop of Kendall Square (MIT) is right below it.

This was within walking distance to MIT and connected to the T. There are a few bars you can walk to from the hotel. The rooms are generally small, but the windows have a good view and they are floor to ceiling. Our bathroom wasn't sparkling, but most other parts of the room were okay. I would stay here again...

Boston Marriott Cambridge has a great location, in the middle of MIT campus. Excellent service with super friendly staff. Highly recommend it.

Rooms nice and clean. Location is great. Across the street from MIT and 2 train stops from Harvard. Not to mention the red line train stopn is 10 yards from the back door of hotel. Legal Seafoods is a few doors down.
