Excellent service, center of the town, convenient. only one chair in the room., room space is limited.

Love the Kendall, but be advised--the room key is deactivated at 11am sharp on checkout day!

My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon as we are both firefighters and loved the history of the hotel. From the amazing front desk agent Anthony that helped us adjust our reservation after we got stranded in Texas, to the great service in the restaurant, the housekeepers, the breakfast, and the comfort of the room, it was PERFECT!! We will definitely be back.

Best hotel ever!! Great value for the area. The decor is very unique, the staff is absolutely wonderful going above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and welcome, there's paid parking underneath the hotel (which is hard to find in this area!), THE BEST FOOD (you HAVE to try their lobster rolls OMG!!), breakfast was super yummy (especially their muesli), it's walking distance to shops, dinning, etc., and even though it's in a very busy part of Cambridge there was no noise AT ALL in the room. The beds were incredible! like sleeping on clouds. The room smelled non-chemically divine! I have a hard time with perfumes and such but this was natural and rosey. The bathroom super clean too (as well as everything else) and very nice products. I would absolutely stay here again 200%!
