Top Harvard Science Center Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Boston-Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, the room and amenities were nice and matched the description. The hotel staff were very pleasant, welcoming, and helpful. The room was clean, and I didn't hear any noise from my neighbors. The hotel had a nice Japanese restaurant that was fun and bustling. The food was very good. I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again."

The Atlas Hotel Boston Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"Luxury hotel next to Harvard Business School. I attended a conference at 1 Milestone, and this was the conference hotel. I was pleasantly surprised overall. The lobby is beautifully appointed, with a large, comfortable lounge area that’s great for working or talking with colleagues. There are plenty of seating options, although more accessible power outlets for charging devices would be helpful. My room was spacious and very comfortable, with a solid bed and down pillows, which I prefer. The onsite restaurant looked great, although I didn’t eat there. Unfortunately, there is no food or beverage service during the day, so you can’t get a cup of coffee while working in the lobby. Free coffee was available early in the morning, but there were no cups when I tried to get some. The restaurant and bar also closed at 10 p.m., which was disappointing for conference guests wanting to continue conversations after dinner. There was no late checkout option either. The Harvard COOP has a branch in the lobby, which is convenient for Harvard souvenirs. At about $700 a night for a king room, the hotel felt expensive given the limited amenities. Beautiful, comfortable and well located, but at this price point I expected more."

Studio Allston Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel had an ice healthy breakfast and the rate was very good for the time of year. The menu on the website for the restaurant/bar was misleading but if your not interested in that it was a good value. Bathroom in room was small but room was clean and well stocked."
