“Kronos Symposium”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 23, 2012

This is a wonderful facility that provides amazing end to end service. Love every moment spent here. The only downside is that the bedrooms are very warm but the conference rooms are quite cold - think the latter was more down to our course leader not wanting us to fall asleep :-)

Room Tip: Stay in any of the odd numbers as you are overlooking the front.

“Distract or not to distract...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012 via mobile

Attended a conference at the Babson. Staff was beyond courteous from the front desk to the dining hall. The rooms were very average but fine. Housekeeping kept them as clean as any five star. The common areas including the meeting rooms were very nice if not state of the art. If I had to set up a meeting in the Boston area, I would choose them again.

“My sixth visit!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 6, 2012

It was nice to be greeted with "Welcome Home." The staff go out of their way to make sure that things run smoothly. The complimentary breakfast has everything from the omelete bar, meat, fruit, yogurt, oatmeal...The break stations are open 24 hours if you feel like tea, coffee, yogurt, ice cream, candy...yes, complimentary. Excellent work out facilities (unless you are a weight lifter and need weights over 50 lbs). Room is clean and nice, not over the top. I'll stay again.

Room Tip: They are all similar.

Your sixth visit and you still took the time to review? That is greatly appreciated!

And that ice cream is a huge hit for everyone, we New Englanders really do love our cold treats!

If you are ever interested in hittting up more than 50 pound weights you can always take a short walk to the Boston Sports Club :) It is also complimentary to our guests!

“Outstanding !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 10, 2012

This was simply an outstanding stay. To be treated like a guest, instead of revenue generator, was truly refreshing. The staff could not have been more pleasant and friendly. The room although not glitzy, was clean and comfortable. Complementary coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and snacks were abundant. Breakfast was a true hot breakfast, on par with any of the high end breakfast buffets that would cost upward of $15pp.
The property is nestled away inside Babson College and normally functions as an executive conference center. It is not your run of the mill hotel, so if you're looking for a full service restaurant and bar this is not the place for you, although they do have a bar. Fortunately for me the place was very quiet, not much else going on, I like it that way!
Travel time into downtown Boston is about 30 minutes without traffic. This was a great stay, I would absolutely go out of my way to stay here again!

Room Tip: You might want to ask for a room near either the garage entrance, or, near an elevator.

"To be treated like a guest, instead of revenue generator, was truly refreshing." I don't think there is anything you could have said that would make me, and the rest of our staff, happier.
