“Great Service, Cozy, and Perfect Location”

The Inn at Harvard was a great hotel pick for my recent visit to Cambridge. My mom and I were there for the Harvard Graduate School of Education's Open House for Admitted Students. The location was ideal (right next to the T and basically in the heart of campus). The rooms were comfortable and clean (fluffy mattresses and bath&body works soaps). And finally, the service was impeccable (the concierge and wait staff were friendly and helpful). My family will certainly choose to stay here when they come to visit next year.

“Great Value, Great Location”

We were pleasantly surprised by the Inn at Harvard. Very easy access to downtown Boston, and right next door to Harvard. Would definitely go back. Room was clean, comfortable, and didn't feel like a typical hotel room. It had more style and interest, and was a great place to come back to after long days of walking around the city. Walking distance to a variety of restaurants. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

“Great location”

Great location for walking to tour historical sites and many restaurants to choose from. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

“An oasis of calm in Cambridge MA”

The Inn at Harvard is really splendid- The room was spacious, clean and quiet. I especially liked the fact that I could not hear the heating system during the night . The standard of furniture was very high- solid and tasteful. The bathroom was bright and nicely lit. The location is very central- beside Harvard University. The staff were very polite and helpful.

“Great location, friendly staff, not a $ bargain”

I arrived early in the morning after catching a red-eye from California. The folks at the Inn at Harvard found me a room and checked me in at 9am! While there aren't many "extras" at the Inn, the location was great and the folks at the Inn were very helpful.

“Boston convenience”

Hotel very attractive, bright and comfortable, with all rooms overlooking open space with tables for meals. Staff very polite and pleasant.

“Harvard's boutique hotel”

At the high end in Harvard Square, the two primary choices are the Inn at Harvard and the Charles Hotel. (The Sheraton Commander is a distant third, and the Harvard Square Hotel is a not so good, budget alternative), situated at opposite ends of the Square. The Charles has more amenities (two restaurants, a large fitness center and pool, etc.), but it tends to cost about $100 more per night. Both are good, well-maintained properties built at roughly the same time in the 1980s. The Inn is an upscale boutique hotel with a strong Harvard ambience, a very responsive staff, and a central atrium with the feel of a large living room, which serves as an all-purpose restaurant, lounge, meeting area, etc. Rooms are comfortable, and they’ve recently eliminated the fee for wireless access. The fitness center is barely adequate – a converted hotel room with a couple of bikes, an elliptical machine and a treadmill.

“Walkin', talkin', and gawkin' in Bean Town”

see above.

“Impressed”

Very impressive while feeling secluded in a city.

“Would be delighted to stay again for a longer period of time”

I was at the Inn at Harvard Square for only one night,, arrived late in the evening after attending the theater and had to leave early in the morning so that I did not have time to take advantage of and enjoy the amenities of the hotel. In my short stay everything was fine, the staff was courteous and helpful. love the location.
