Wonderful stay, nice lobby and the pool area was fantastic for the kids. We enjoyed a drink at Artbar later in the evening outside on the patio. Right across from hotel was the cambridgeside galleria mall, which is nice too. Only downfall was breakfast at Artbar. Kitchen problem left food service slow and $17.95 buffet had very little to choose... More

Beautiful hotel near MIT, on the Charles River, and across the street from CambridgeSide mall. It was also in walking distance from the Science Museum. Hotel amenities were excellent, staff friendly and helpful. The rooms were large, well-lit, tastefully decorated and quiet, and the beds were very comfortable. We got free parking as part of a deal as parents of... More

I have stayed at this hotel at least 10 times and love the experience every time I stay. the rooms are very clean and spacious, nicely appointed, with many amenities. Although not in downtown Boston, the location is so close and you have great views of the Boston skyline and the Charles River. My son loves to come and stay... More

we had our 4th annual workshop at the hotel.....it was a wonderful experience. the staff was wonderful, the management available, the food amazing AND very accommodating to special needs diets...the food had great presentation and was healthy. we are trying to go back again for another workshop.

We love the Sonesta, always helpful, clean rooms, great service and friendly smiles. Even if we ever have problems with a room or at the restaurant there is someone to listen and take care of our needs. This trip was trouble free and very lovely.

Stayed here 4 nights on business because it was one of the few hotels available at a semi-reasonable price. The hotel is located on the Charles River and across the street from the Cambridgeside Galleria mall, which offers a few reasonable dining options. It is not very close to a lot of things in Cambridge, such as Cambridge Center and... More

Excellent location with modern rooms and all amenities (including a great indoor pool). Nice views of the Charles River and good front desk service.All hotels in Boston are overpriced, but at least at the Sonesta you feel as if you are getting some semblance of your money's worth.

The staff at this hotel are by far the best thing about the place! They are very helpful and want your stay to be a good one. The concierge desk was great getting us a pasta dinner reservation the day before the Boston marathon. The room itself was very clean and cozy. I found the pillows to be to hard... More

My husband and I stayed at the Royal Sonesta on a Saturday night. We had a beautiful room with an amazing view! We found the hotel staff extremely courteous. For dinner, we enjoyed a delicious meal at the Art Bar. In the morning, we took a walk along the Charles. The Sonesta was comfortable and well priced for the location.... More
