Trip to Boston
The location is beautiful at the Charles Riverside at Boston, easy to reach the Boston Downtown and shopping center. Room is big enough and convenient. I would recommend it to anyone.

Perfect hotel and location
I was visiting my son during Christmas. The staff was very professional and I received an upgrade with a view of the Charles River. The room was very comforable with top of the line linens. The location was perfect. I was across from a shopping mall. I'm sorry I didn't have time to take advantage of the pool. I would definitely stay again.

good hotel
The staff was extremely friendly and courteous. They helped me with anything I needed and even held my bag for me AFTER I checked out since my flight didn't leave for 4 hours. Location right on the Charles River was beautiful. Great place to stay.

A mall is literally across the street. Has a small food court but also has a few actual restaurants. Also the Science Museum of Boston is right there.

Relaxing stay with a great skyline view
Spent 2 nights and needed a relaxing hotel with a convenient location. The Sonesta gave me just that. Gorgeous view on Boston's skyline (ask for view rooms!), great mall just across the street, and moreover a nice fitness center. If you don't need to stay downtown, this is a nice spot.

Great stay at a great price
I always stay at the Royal Sonesta Cambridge when I am here on business. It's a great hotel. This time I decided to stay here for a mini getaway. I got a great deal [...] Orbitz with free parking included. The hotel is in a great location, near two different T stops. Plus they've got a great pool and nice gym. The people who work there are very friendly (and I've noticed that many of them are the same people over the last four years). Bed is very comfortable. If you're by the elevator, the noise can be a bit annoying as you hear a lot of ringing every few minutes, so ask to be away from the elevator. The bar is nice. I love in the summer that they have free bikes you can use, free ice cream, and free boat rides on the river. Plus you can jog along the river as the hotel is right next to it. Great views from some of the rooms. Overall, really great place to stay.
