This property was perfect for our stay right after the holidays to visit family & friends. It's close enough to Boston to visit, but far enough away from the craziness to be truly enjoyable. The staff were very welcoming & friendly. We will definitely consider this property on a return visit to the area. More

I stayed 4 nights at this Homewood Suites & I was happy & will return. I was in a queen studio suite which was perfect for what I needed. Unfortunatley I was in the 1st room off the lobby so I did hear lobby noise, but it wasn't horrible. Bed was comfortable, WiFI was really slow, TV in the sitting... More

I am a Hilton Diamond memeber and spend over 200 nights each year on the road. As a result I stay at a lot of Hilton properties and this property does not live up to the Hilton standard. I stayed at this property November 15 -17, 2011. I must say...I was not impressed: Cons: The hallway was littered with dirt... More

We stayed here for a Tufts parents' weekend because the Hyatt Place, where we usually stay, was booked up. Our daughter is a senior. Wish we had tried the Homewood Suites sooner. It's an easy drive to the Tufts campus. We stayed in a king 1-bedroom suite with a fireplace. It was clean, up-to-date, quite comfortable. The staff was very... More

I spirited away my husband for a quick anniversary vacation in Boston; we wanted to visit the Adams National Historic Park and see family. Being a Hilton Diamond, I looked for the best Hilton I could find to serve our purpose. A Homewood Suites property seemed perfect: a bit more room than a hotel room, and a little more ambiance....

On the other hand, I apologize that the breakfast was not up to the standard you expected. We will review these comments with our staff and Hilton Brand Regional Director as... More

I stayed at this Homewood Suites over the weekend while doing business in the Harvard Square. It is just up Massachusetts Ave from Harvard Square, an easy drive. But, I had even better luck parking at the nearby Alewife station and taking the T into town. Super easy to do- much easier than parking. The hotel has easy underground parking.... More

We were not really expecting anything out of the ordinary, but after the last Homewood Suites we staid in we were very pleased with this one, we asked for a low floor, and we got it with no hassle (this is on my permanent request so the other hotel had it weeks in advance and still could not make it...

My family of four traveled on Amtrak from Philly to Boston and used this as a first night stop before heading to other locations in New England. It is a great hotel in a very nice area. The rooms are typical Homewood Suites: large and clean with free Internet. There is free parking and a free hot breakfast. The town... More

As most of the other reviewers have stated, this is a nice clean property, in a great location. As with most homewood Suites, my only complaint is the food.... Both breakfast and dinner were abysmal in my opinion. More

We recently stayed here and while overall the hotel is nice, it advertises that they are very close to the T line. This is not true. There is a bus stop in front of the hotel, but the walk to the Alewife Station is about 15 minutes away. The staff even acknowledged that the website is a bit misleading. That... More

Thank you for your review of the hotel and for staying with us! Yes, you're right the Alewife Subway Station is a 15 minute walk, or 5 minute bus/car-ride away and we will further clarify that on our website. We hope to have you stay with us again. More
