Claudia Santos
A perfect, charming hotel with a great location. The bed linens were incredibly soft, and the food served at Henrietta’s Table was very good. We loved the free snack pantry in the lobby, especially the bottles of water. Will absolutely stay again!
Muhammad
The Charles Hotel exceeded expectations on every front. The rooms and common areas were spotless, and the amenities felt genuinely upscale. Staff were accommodating and allowed us extra time to check out, which made the end of our stay stress-free. On-site parking was a huge plus, and the location couldn’t be better — just steps from Harvard Square, with great restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area.
Jennifer
Wonderful property. Very well maintained. Will definitely stay again
Yang
酒店大堂很舒服，像个图书馆。可以在那边看书，看电脑，呆很长时间。

It was a great experience.
Jose
Good location in Cambridge... close to many commercial places. Will stay there again.

clean room
John
Very nice small touches like excellent apples and the reading nook. There are bikes in the garage but no way to rent and the app based rides aren’t suitable for children or families. might be nice to invest in that because the hotel is on a bikeway. no pool. no hot tub. no outdoor dining despite nice terrace. very quiet at night.
Carmen
Great location
John
Great experience but check in was delayed for a while and ended up in a different room category but hotel is beautiful and centrally located.
Elizabeth
Delivered our room service breakfast to another room and we were charged for it (more than $50)
Food options limited at both restaurants and room service Loud celebrations in lobby with kids (world cup & foosball). Lots of visiting teenage athletes (Harvard etc) and crowds.
Expensive for quality now (run down) but good location for walking, Uber to Mass General. Room quiet. Signs of ? Recent flood with big fans in hallway

You literally can't select a more centrally located hotel than this one. It is smack in the middle of Harvard Square. Restaurants and the campus are all walkable. The stadium is a 12 minute walk. CVS is down the street. Lots of food options everywhere. Loved this. One minor issue is the hotel doesn't have ice machines and the rooms have coolers. When traveling for sports with families, it's nice to have both. We called for room service and 45 minutes later (and an additional prompt), they finally brought ice to the room. First world issues, but it was annoying. NOTE: make sure if you order a room with two beds, you're aware that they also have DOUBLE beds. We didn't notice this until it was too late. All that aside, we loved our stay there!!
Karen
The lobby, restaurant, staff and amenities were great. Our room faced a building so not a great view and the shower curtain didn’t keep the water from going on the floor. The bed was super comfortable and the room nicely decorated. Overall I enjoyed our stay but would make sure to get a room with a better view next time.
Vicki
Perfection every way
Lisa
Beautiful hotel in great location near Harvard and other attractions. Cozy, upscale furnishings and art work. Restaurants on site.
valerie
had a delicious muffin and coffee. Parking was safe and convenient.
Blant
Room was nice. A bit spartan, with no couch in my suite. Just lots of chairs. Like 7 of them. Shower is exceptional. The room grew on me over my three night stay. Came to like it. Pillows are way too soft. All of them. No variety. The gym at this hotel is fantastic. Big, with lots of equipment. Jogging paths nearby on the Charles River is a big plus, as is prime location in Harvard Square. Common areas are exceptional as well, which serves to highlight the stiff quakerish quality of the decor in the rooms. Staff is attentive. But a bit removed and ensconced behind counters, it seemed.
Heather
Reserved this hotel because of the soaking tub mentioned in the room description. When we checked in, our room had no tub:(. The professional and pleasant hotel staff were very helpful - switching us to a room with a bath tub. The bed/bed linens were incredible/soft, all of the food we had was excellent. Henrietta’s Table for dinner. In room breakfast the next day. The was freshly brewed- tasted like real coffee. We loved the free snack pantry in the lobby (yay!! diet cokes and cheezits!). Will absolutely stay again!

This place is overated. The managemnt is incompetent.
It us prtentiopus and the only reason it exists is thet it in on Harvard Square.
They do not provide basic water in the room, so simple amnities you would expect for these prices, like some fresh fruit is the room when you check in, no chocolate on the pilow at night. They pretend to be educated, yet the books in the lobby are fake pieces of wood.
Terrible place abd pretentious.

This is a really lovely hotel in an amazing area in Cambridge. There is much around to do. This hotel is very welcoming and comfortable. The gym is great! Parking is easy, although expensive. Our room was clean. It was a wonderful stay! We highly recommend this hotel!

Front desk female upon arrival was not too friendly.
Pillows were very old.
Parking was terrible. Ticket didn't work and we needed to call the parking attendant to let us out. Super inconvenient
We were also given a room on the third floor which didn't feel good since it was near the conf rooms

I stayed at this hotel while attending a conference at Harvard University. It was only about an 8-minute walk to Harvard, which made the location incredibly convenient. Being situated right in Harvard Square was a huge plus—it’s such a lively and charming area.
What impressed me the most was the restaurant on the second floor. The food was absolutely outstanding. The ingredients were extremely fresh, and the dishes elevated their natural flavors beautifully. I was expecting a typical hotel breakfast, but it felt more like a Michelin-level dining experience.
If I visit Boston again, I will definitely stay here again.

The best part about this hotel is its walkability to everything at Harvard. Being so close gives you the freedom to pop back whenever you need to recharge, shower, or just take a quick break between activities.
Heidi
Always a pleasure staying here. The staff is top-notch! Attentive, friendly, helpful.

Nancy
I haven’t been to the Charles since before. I loved the Lobby update!
Sarah
Beautiful spaces, lobby, hallways, and especially the rooms were all lovely. Extra touches like a stocked mini bar and extremely comfortable robes in the room in addition to classic touches like the pad and pen, functioning alarm clock, and many places to plug in a phone with an excellent desk for working made my stay very comfortable. The rooms have clearly been redone recently with a very up-to-date and beautiful bathroom renovation. I will definitely stay here again! My only comment and it’s a small one, is that on Sundays it would be very helpful to have a non-buffet lunch option as I could not eat enough to justify the $79 buffet :-) but I was thankful to be able to purchase some baked goods and there was always free coffee at Henrietta’s table restaurant.

Super spacious room, everything you would need to be comfortable including robes, full size lotions, soaps, body wash, etc. Friendly staff, huge gym, restaurants on site and room service until 11:00 pm. If you’re visiting Harvard, the location can’t be beat, because it’s close to everything.

Spotless room, nice late checkout (noon) and super helpful staff. Also, the proximity to Harvard Kennedy School was a big plus in the fierce winter weather. Polite and helpful doormen and easy access to taxis for the (nearby) airport. Couldn't wish for more.

We booked a room from Thursday-Sunday and my husband was already staying there for a business trip. I had already reported that we did not have a satisfactory check-in situation or room assignment, but nobody responded to that, and we were still there. I had asked the front desk for extra pillows in one room and we didn’t get them. My husband’s room didn’t get cleaned one day and when we called at 2pm to ask for housekeeping, they waited two hours to come, by which time we were already done with our day and back in our room. The parking fees are ridiculous (and I live in California and am used to high prices), the beds are poor quality mattresses that have a topper to make them feel more luxurious, but are not helpful in covering the uncomfortable mattress quality. Hurt my back. Also when they say “double beds” they are serious, not queen beds, but full-size. Not really comfortable for two teenagers to sleep together. The bath doesn’t drain either. Had this same problem with my husband’s room too. The restaurant staff is wonderful though and we had a delicious meal at Thanksgiving. I usually get some type of upgrade or benefit since I’m an Expedia Platinum member and nothing was provided. First time that has ever happened to me in years of booking through Expedia. My husband has stayed at The Charles before, due to frequent business trips to Boston but is considering not returning. Very disappointed in this stay, and the poor service.

From check in to check out, the people behind the desk were helpful, lovely and professional. My room was immaculate, stocked with goodies (if needed), a nice view and a wonderful bathroom....there was even a tv in the mirror of the bathroom! There are several dining options and the lobby is so lovely, that one would just like to sit and people watch....service in all aspects was impecable. I will always stay when in town.

We love the Charles for proximity to the river/races. Rooms are nice and very comfortable. Prices are very steep but head of the Charles weekend is much pricier than usual.
Thermostats in room were not responsive. Drafty windows. Chilly overall.
