Nice decor and great beds. Not much of a view out the window. Luxuriously quiet. Also there's a great pub a block away from the front entrance. I paid about $105 a night -- it was a slow, cold weekend. More

As noted with other reviewers, there is a noise issue here at the Le Meridien. The room I had had one of those old connecting doors to the room next door - used to adjoin rooms. If you have guests next door, you will hear just about all of their movements (coughing, talking, zipping up luggage, television, etc.). This is... More

The concierge was most helpful in obtaining information for activities from how-to-get-there time-vs-cost to actually calling up the restaurant to find out if there would be a live band and patiently explaining cross streets to this visitor. Be careful of the rooms, though. The first room I got looked like the door had been jimmied open a while back. (First... More

Flew out to Boston for a quick weekend away from home. I was looking for a hotel with a decent rate that was centrally located. Oh, and I was looking for ICH or Starwood properties, having recently given up on Hiltons. Based upon what was available I decided to take a chance on staying in Cambridge, at the LeMeridien. It...

We arrived on the 27th of December and departed on the 31st. There were 2 female front desk receptionist and she is very helpful. It is a very convenient location, close to MIT and T station, and there are a lot of restaurants around the area. It is very cheap for $15 per person per week to take the T... More

I agree with the majority of reviewers here. Very clean and comfortable; the rooms are well decorated, although possibly a little minimal. The only part of the room that wasn't quite up to par was the bathroom, which was more than adequate, but could use an upgrade - the tiles, etc. are very basic, as opposed to some other hotels...

My high school son and I stayed here in December for 4 days while he participated in an indoor track meet with his team at Harvard. The staff was very polite, helpful and accomodating, placed us on the upper SPG (Starwood Preferred) level of the hotel when we mentioned we were members. Our room was modern in style with very...

Stayed here for two nights in summer 2011. We enjoyed staying here as the rooms were clean and comfortable. There were no problems with customer service. It is also located in the heart of Cambridge with lots of options for eating and drinking. So, a safe and clean option but nothing about it particularly wowed us. But we would come... More
