  • Great public spaces, nice room, and excellent service.
  • Wish there was in-room coffee and airport shuttle service.

“ The Hotel Marlowe is a wonderful place to stay while in Cambridge. The lobby and restaurants are nicely decorated, the food is good and the rooms are comfortable and nicely appointed. We had excellent service throughout our stay (3 nights) and would definitely stay at the Marlowe again when we return.

  • Clean, nice beds.
  • Our room was under the fitness room, we were awaken by the noise of treadmills at 6:00a.m.

“Hard to get there due to the one way streets and no U-turn streets. Our main complaint is that our room was directly under the fitness center. We were awaken at 6:00 a.m. by the loud noises of people running on the treadmills and the room was shaking. It was a wheel chair accessible room, although we did not requested it.”

  • Extremely friendly and helpful staff, great amenities, beautiful room

“Beautiful hotel with great service. Pet friendly, down to the dog treats waiting at the entrance. Free wine reception every evening is a great extra and it's served in the "living room" which is a lovely place to sit and meet people. The room was lovely and decorated beautifully. I also love that they are trying to be as environmentally friendly as possible, including a separate recycling garbage can in the room. I can't wait to go back.”

  • Decor, cleanliness, staff.
  • Location is not really walkable to major Boston attractions.

“The hotel was very nice and provided us with a relaxing stay while we were in town for a wedding. we had a rental car and were able to go around to see a lot of Boston attractions, but without a car, the location may be slightly inconvenient.”

  • Excellent pricing and staff was incredible.
  • Pay for parking.

“This was a very swanky hotel, that is attached to a massive indoor shopping mall, with several restaurants. The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and helpful! I have never stayed at a hotel where the staff has been so helpful, and the rooms are cleaned to excellence. The one drawback, is that guests must pay for non-valet parking at the hotel.”

  • Parking and front desk attendeants were great; room clean.
  • Nothing.

“I have stayed in Boston many times. Never heard of this hotel. But, this turned out to be an awesome experience. Would do this again and enthusiastically recommend to anyone. Hotel staff great. Not into leopard or zebra/animal patterns, but room and bathroom were spotless, quite, and I got a good rest. Would stay again. Exceeded my expectations.”

  • The decor.
  • You could hear every little thing that happened in the hallway.

“Overall it was nice. Decorated well. Comfy bed and linens. My biggest complaint is that there is no sound proofing what-so-ever. So we could here kids running up and down the hallway, every time someone opened their door, a dog barking a dozen rooms away, it was ridiculous. And the room service is way over priced.”

  • Had easy access to the shopping mall and restaurants next door.
  • Parking arrangements were confusing.

“Beautifully appointed rooms, friendly and helpful staff. Would have preferred a room with a view as opposed to looking at the other walls of the hotel and its courtyard. Was nice and quiet. Very easy to walk next door to the Cheesecake Factory.”

  • Easy access to most of what Boston has to offer.
  • The bathroom.

“This was one very nice hotel and setting was very enjoyable. The staff was very helpful when I had questions regarding close amenities. The decor was very modern take on classical color tones, and also the bed nicely quipped. I had a small problem with my room service but was taken care of by the staff in a very quick and timely manner.
