Doubletree Guest Suites

Frommer's Review

This hotel is one of the best deals in town -- every unit is a two-room suite with a living room, bedroom, and bathroom. Business travelers can entertain and families can spread out, making this a good choice for both. It's near Cambridge and across the street from the path that follows the Charles River, but not in an actual neighborhood. Shuttle service to local destinations makes the isolation easier to handle. The suites, which were renovated in 2007, surround a 15-story atrium. Rooms are large and attractively furnished, and most bedrooms have a king-size bed (some have two oversize twins) and a writing desk. Each living room contains a full-size sofa bed, a dining table, and a good-size refrigerator. The Hyatt Regency Cambridge, the hotel's nearest rival, is slightly more convenient than the Doubletree but generally more expensive.

Facilities: Restaurant (American); lounge; excellent Scullers Jazz Club; indoor pool; exercise room; free access to nearby health club; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; shuttle service to Cambridge and downtown Boston; 24-hr. business center; room service until 3am; coin-op laundry; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning; rooms for those w/limited mobility.
