Top Harvard Yard Hotel Reviews

Porter Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful. Valet had my car ready as requested. Noisy area late at night."

citizenM Boston Back Bay

10/10 Excellent

"First - the staff at the check in reception area were so nice. The whole check in and check out process are automated and self-guided on a kiosk. It was really fast and easy. The Newport street view rooms in this hotel are INSANE. We were so impressed by the cleanliness, newness, and full update / hip vibes of the hotel lobby (2nd floor) and of our room. The king room we were in was REALLY small but the space was configured so well that it didn’t matter. The breakfast buffet downstairs is one of the best for hotel breakfasts. Coffee bar and service staff are awesome! The food was great. Lots of good protein and carb options for all kinds of eaters. Actually my only complaint is that I called the hotel to ask for information about parking options. The automated service (not a real person) told me that I should check the faq on the website as options near the hotel would be provided. The website told me “there’s no parking”. 😩"

Hotel Veritas

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the cutest boutique hotels I’ve ever been to and the front desk, staff in the morning, during the day, and late at night we’re all equally stellar. The grab and go water, the wonderful assortment of hot teas, and the fancy Nespresso machine was an added bonus. The next time I’m in Boston, I will absolutely stay here again."

Hyatt Regency Boston/Cambridge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a situation during our first day as our room has deficient AC. Ms. Dámelis Marmolejos did a great job and sober very quickly the situation, she was very diligent and problem solver. We highly appreciated her effort doing her best to solve it. Hyatt is very lucky to have Damelis in its staff. Thanks"
