Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 29, 2009
I decided to stay in Cambridge which is just outside the city of Boston proper. It's was a short drive so it wasn't an inconvenience at all. Metered street parking was easy enough to find when we traveled into Boston. Overnight self-parking at The Marlowe is $20 for 24 hours and just underneath the hotel itself as part of the Galleria Mall (which means there's shopping and a couple of chain restaurants within a stone's throw). Valet is slightly higher, $24 I think. The hotel is beautiful. The room was immaculate. The staff couldn't be more helpful. And there was a goldfish at the front desk. We didn't eat at the restaurant but after a late night of sight-seeing without having eaten dinner, we ordered room service. The overnight menu is limited but who needs a T-bone at 3 am? Will absolutely stay here again.

Enjoyed a 5-day stay at this hotel, located about 7 min. from the Lechmere T stop and on the edge of the Cambridgeside Galeria Mall. Less than 15 min. taxi drive to Back Bay, even with morning traffic. Only problem encountered was intermittent wireless service, otherwise this was a very comfortable stay.

Reviewed by Howard of London on Oct 21, 2009
The rooms at the hotel have a wild animal theme with the carpets and bath robes in Zebra stripes or Cheatah pattern. The staff were very friendly and there is complimentary coffee in reception from 6am and a free wine tasting in the evening from 5:30pm. The restaurant was OK - not great and quite expensive but there are a range of local eateries in the shopping mall attached to the hotel including Cheesecake Factory and California Pizza and the obligatory food court! The hotel is situated across the river from Boston and is next to the Science Museum - the metro is a 10 minute walk and then three or four stops into Downtown crossing for access to the centre of Boston This is a nice boutique hotel at a reasonable price for the area.

Very nice staff, attractive hotel, VERY clean. I did not eat there so cannot comment on that. I would suggest a better quality of wine for the free wine hour, but I do like the concept. I use public transportation and this is on the green line "T", and bus "69" goes to Harvard Square - which was where I was everyday.I would stay there again, depending on price-I look for discounts.

This is a great hotel. Let's start with the basics - rooms, bar & restaurant all great. It's the added extras which made the difference for us. Staff were great - always friendly, always welcoming, always willing to help. Extras actually added value! You can get a bike & kayak for your own use for free. The hotel just lends you them. It's awesome. You also get free coffee in the morning and a wine reception at night. All the people we met at this hotel were also great and really friendly. The dog friendly nature of the hotel was also cool. No noise at all was caused by the dogs - I guess they are kept in a separate part of the hotel. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Stayed here on my trip to take my daughter to BU. She really loved the hotel decor, as did I. Very different but not over the top. Funky but tasteful. Everything was great - except I hated the pillows. Didn't ask for different ones so I don't know if they have alternatives to the down/feather. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We found the T stop within a reasonable distance (5 minute walk) Parking not the greatest (not very convenient and $20/night) but what do you expect in a city like Boston? Would definitely stay there again. We had a lovely stay.

This hotel was so cute! The rooms are decorated better than any other hotel I ever stayed in. They had leopard carpet! And they had these zebra and cheetah robes that you could wear. The service was impeccable. The only problem was the location because it was a bit of a walk to the T (around 7 minutes). It's perfect for young couples, though. Oh, and it was pretty convenient that the mall was right next door. I forgot to bring a party dress and was able to get one in 10 minutes at the Macy's next door.

We would certainly stay at this hotel again - We would make this our hotel of choice as a matter of fact. Access to Green LIne was very convenient; access to the Red Line also good. Relationship with Galleria Mall made parking reasonable. Knowing a little about Boston helped to make this Cambridge location a good choice. Staff was helpful. Met the chief engineer on the elevator. He took it upon himself to introduce himself and ask about our stay and our level of satisfaction. I thought that this showed something about the "corporate culture" at his hotel.

We found a special on this hotel and so grabbed it up for our one night stay in Boston. It's an easy 15-20 minute walk from North Station and close to the Museum of Science, The Cambridgeside Galleria and North End where all the good restaurants are. The wine reception was excellent with full glasses of Fetzer wine and spring rolls served on the side. The room was on the small side, but we had enough room. The bathrobes were cozy. The only odd experience we had was housekeeping walking in on us about ten minutes after our arrival to inventory the minibar. She came in despite our desperate shouting to wait a minute as we were changing our clothes. So putting the do not disturb sign on the door is a must at this hotel. There are no chain locks either. Overall, I would certainly recommend this hotel and plan on staying here again.

I had a horrible stay at this hotel. Do not book a smoking room since there is no smoking allowed within a hundred feet of the place. You cannot shut the blinds at all and when the lights are on near the entrance or the sun comes up...you are going to be WIDE AWAKE. The mini bar was not locked and i refused the key before i got my room, so i have no idea if i got charged even though i informed them of it. Did not even notice a small blood stain on my pillow until the next morning. Lucky for me it was on the other side. Finally when i was leaving the garage very early in the morning, there was nobody to let anyone out of the garage. I am not kidding about anything I have posted here. Good luck to whoever checks into this overpriced dump!

Family of six visiting colleges. Ideal location for visiting most Boston area colleges and the city itself. About one block from the "T" (Boston's public transportation system). You can leave the car parked and ride the "T" during your stay. Received a very good room rate. Hotel did not provide what was booked (Two doubles in each room), but did provide one King and a roll away bed in each room (Two rooms). Rooms were well kept and two day stay was quiet. Self parking was $20 per day. Breakfast at Hotel was expensive, over $120 for family of six (Two adults and four children). Be careful not to double tip, since tip is included in restaurant bill.
