Top West Cambridge Hotel Reviews

The Dagny Boston

10/10 Excellent

"None"

Harborside Inn Of Boston

8/10 Good

"Location is fantastic for tourists exploring Boston as favorite spots are in walking distance. Best if you commute there as parking is only available at pricey garages. Small hotel with nice lobby area and tastefully decorated rooms. Bathrooms are sleek and modern. Easy walk to TD Garden for an event. I would stay there again."

Hyatt Regency Boston/Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed two nights. Room was great, staff was friendly! Was nice to have an open bar until 11pm. So many hotel bars/testsurants close up early so it was nice to be able to sit in the bar area, watch a game and have an evening nightcap. Our bar tender was so attentive and nice. The hotel was a little out of the main hustle and bustle of Boston but worked for us price wise. Easy enough to uber to all Boston has to offer! Beds were comfy! Great experience!"

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

8/10 Good

"Reserved a corner room and paid more money for it. The room's floor plan does not give a lot of space. They can only fit one night stand next to the bed. Asked to move and was told we couldn't until the next night. Talked to someone else and they were able to move us to another room. Better layout but they didn't give me a refund for a less expensive room. Other than that, the hotel is very nice and a great location."
