Cambridge is an easy, safe and picturesque place to walk...
Cambridge is an easy, safe and picturesque place to walk around. The streets are clean, the parks are beautifully maintained and there is stunning historic architecture, as well as quaint shops and eateries everywhere. We particularly enjoyed seeing the beautiful Memorial Hall. It's a pity visitors can't look inside, into the Annenberg Hall dining area, but we appreciate that the Harvard students may not like an audience whilst eating : ). The Harvard University of Natural History is fantastic and the Glass Flowers exhibit is a must-see! Being a rower, I enjoyed seeing the beautiful Weld Boathouse and Newell Boathouse and watching crews row up and down the Charles River. If you love books, The COOP bookstore is well worth a visit and if you enjoy ice-cream, I would highly recommend getting a Taiyaki (Japanese ice-cream) from Taiyaki NYC in Church Street. The ramen at Boston Ramen at 24 Holyoke Street was delicious and I would highly recommend grabbing a waffle and coffee from the food truck parked in the Harvard Science Center Plaza. If you're going into Boston, I would highly recommend the Boston Tea Party Ships and museum experience (an excellent interactive, re enactment experience), having a ride on the beautiful Greenway Carousel and walking through the Boston Common, seeing the 'Make way for ducks' statue and, for the 'Cheers' tv series fans, visiting the Cheers bar.

Comfy room, clean and modern with friendly staff.
Comfy room, clean and modern with friendly staff. Booked in advance, was quoted $186 tax included. But, at check-in I was notified that it cost $25 per day, per parking spot and a $75 fee that would be returned (5 to 7 days) after checkout. Plus they wanted $20 per person for breakfast. Total: $326 for 2 people for one night. Nice place, but won't spend that to stay there again.

It's in a good location for Cambridge, and even not far from Boston amenities. It is NOT right near Harvard campus, though, if that's what you're looking for ... but not far.
The facility is fine - an inn, not a hotel, but with room amenities of a hotel.

One can get to a residence or a hotel easily from Logan airport.
If you walk to Harvard, you can enjoy watching red leaves on the way.
As Harvard square is a walking distance, shopping, sightseeing and joining conference are very convenient. You can enjoy Continental and sophisticated atmosphere because the University of Harvard is very near.

Cambridge is much nicer than Boston, and the Harvard Campus is wonderful to walk around, with big trees and lots of open spaces. There are good restaurants too - we really enjoyed The Druid Irish pub. There is also a lot to see and do. Two days was too short to go to everything we wanted to visit.

Excellent hotel, comfortable rooms, with a beautiful view.
Excellent hotel, comfortable rooms, with a beautiful view. The area is very safe and quiet, relatively close to the center and the airport. The indoor pool is very nice. There is a coffee shop on the first floor that sells Starbucks products. The rooms with very comfortable beds, excellent coffee as well as a spacious safe. Excellent hotel.
Well positioned hotel just across from the Porter Sq T stop on red line. Very clean and staff welcoming and efficient. Room well equipped with plenty of free water and coffee available plus ice machine in the basement. Bed was large and comfortable and bathroom well equipped with good shower. Hotel was good value in a city of crazy hotel prices and it was really simple to travel into central Boston on the T. Good choice of bars and restaurants in the area (Shine Sq Bar best value and friendliest that we found). Overall a comfortable stay
It's near Harvard square. Very convenient to walk to Harvard to attend a seminar.
There's a super market in the neighborhood, it doesn't cost much to have meals.
One can talk with each other at a common kitchen space underground in order to exchange some information.
I personally didn't need to change towels and bedsheets in 3days, for there were two bath towels and face towels.
The person at the reception desk taught me the geography there, for I was a first visitor.
Hotel 1868 is really great! It's right opposite the Porter metro station and there are plenty of restaurants nearby (towards Harvard or Davis Sq). The staff were young and really friendly. My room was fantastic: spacious and modern with an enclosed balcony type window over the street. The bathroom was above average and the bed was comfortable. There was a desk for working and the WiFi was fast. A great stay.
The place is pleasant, Metro station close by, food market in front of the hotel - you can have
breakfast and dinner with your own food in the hotel, in a pleasantly furnished room.
Rooms are nice, although not fancy - people at the reception ready to help solve your problems. High quality/money ratio - I would go back, given a chance to be once more in the Cambridge area
I love the Charles Hotel, which is why we come back year after year. It's the best location for Head of the Charles Regatta weekend, and walking distance to our daughter's dorm at Harvard. They welcome our Great Dane with open arms! And they got new pillows, which is the only gripe I've had in the past. Perfection!
Good location in Cambridge, close to subway station to quickly get to the center of Boston. Very nice surroundings, river on one side and small pond on the other. View from my room on Boston panorama was exceptional. Hotel is joint to a shopping mall which is also a plus. Room was nice and comfortable!
Super location right near Central Square and a short walk to several key bus routes. Located at MIT, and a nice 20 min walk to Harvard. And Cambridge is so pretty. Hotel is updated and seemed to be managed well. Love the Keurig machine in the room and the water bottle filler near the ice machine.
The room was well kept, great views of Boston, the staff were extremely great, accommodating, The restaurant staff were the best! Enjoyed chatting with our waitress and bartender both days we stayed. Great Central location, quiet neighborhood near MIT, T and more
Excellent in every way. Professional and friendly service. Good rooms. Love the firehouse history. Breakfast was the best "American buffet breakfast" I have had outside of a 5 star hotel. Best bacon I've had in usa
Overall hotel atmosphere, room cleanliness, staff attitude, and of course the location, which is ideal if you're coming for a conference or business in Cambridge, MIT, Harvard, or Tufts.
The hotel offered bicycles. Cambridge is very bike friendly. We were able to ride to Harvard Square very easily. Restaurants and other amenities were very close.
