Top West Cambridge Hotel Reviews

Club Quarters Hotel Faneuil Hall, Boston

10/10 Excellent

"Overall the hotel was great. The location is ideal for exploring Boston. The staff were all polite and helpful. The room we had was clean, but it could use some new carpet as it looked old and there were some stains. The bathroom is small but functional. I would have appreciated more hooks or shelves. The counter does extend from the sink all the way to above the toilet. But I would not place any personal items on a counter right above the toilet, especially with the toilet not having a lid. The bed was comfortable with a nice mattress topper. The pillows however were awful and had absolutely no support. I would scrunch up the pillow under my head, but still my head ended up in the middle of the pillow with all the filling pushed to the sides of my head and my head basically on the bed. I would definitely stay in this hotel again and would try to request different pillows."

Doubletree By Hilton Boston Logan Airport Chelsea

8/10 Good

"-Some staff members were amazing (the Assistant General Manager who moved us to a more quiet room at night, the lovely breakfast and bar employees, the nice airport shuttle driver, the nice employee who brought us the infant crib) and some employees were not great (the front desk ladies who communicated very poorly about the airport shuttle pickup time, which turned out to be 40 minutes, not 15 minutes; and another curt front desk male employee who was abrasive for no reason). -The hotel room was perfectly decent and very clean; but only because it's old, the carpet felt a bit dirty, like it should be replaced throughout the hotel rooms. -The WiFi works perfectly. -The airport shuttle pickup takes way longer than the front desk tells you (the flight crew in the airport shuttle told me that "they always say 15 minutes" but "it's always longer.""

Encore Boston Harbor
