My best friend and I had an excellent stay at the Hotel Marlowe. Wonderful staff, a beautiful room and nice little extras made for a fun getaway! We booked through Priceline "Name Your Own Price" because it was graduation week in Boston which meant every hotel was extra expensive. That made the stay much more affordable. Plus, upon arrival they... More

We planned a spontaneous trip to the city for the night, and after reading several positive reviews, chose Hotel Marlowe. We were just so impressed- it is worth every penny! The staff are all so friendly and helpful, they could not be any more welcoming or accommodating. My boyfriend called the front desk to ask what channel the Bruins game... More

Felt well taken care of & safe given that the time we travelled was soon after the bombings. It sounds a little funny but my favorite thing was the smell of the soaps! The parking was convenient but not well marked. As we had never been there, we ended up walking through Macy's, the mall and out around to find... More

We had friends from out-of-town stay here last week for my son's graduation at the TD Garden. The location was perfect, with views of the Charles River and the Boston skyline. It was adjacent to the Cambridgeside Galleria, which makes it convenient for shopping & strolling, and is within walking distance of Lechmere Station on the MBTA's Green line. The... More
