I have stayed at the Commander several times mostly for business. It's an older hotel but has aged gracefully. I'm always interested to see what room I'm going to get as it seems no two are alike. With that said, they are always comfortable and I've enjoyed every one. The staff has always been great with no exceptions. More

Recently renovated, very clean, small boutique hotel feel. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Only thing was having to walk past the cemetery to get back to the room which became a little bit creepy at night. Otherwise everything else about it was great. More

I recently stayed at the Sheraton Commander on a professional trip to Cambridge. This is an older hotel, but has been thoughtfully renovated. My room was extremely comfortable, spacious, with a fine king-sized bed. I particularly appreciate that the rooms are not all "cookie-cutter" configurations, as in so many modern hotels. Mine faced the front and had a desk spanning... More

I recently stayed at the Sheraton for a friend's wedding in Cambridge. I loved the room me and my husband had with a king sized bed - it was very clean and thoughtfully laid out; my sister and a friend each had rooms with double beds, and they each had a bathroom with a separate changing/make-up room - I saw...

I stay at the Sheraton Commander every time I come to Cambridge which is about twice per month. I have been staying here for years for a number of reasons. Because I do a lot of flying around the world, being able to open windows -- even just a bit - in hotel rooms is important to me. You can... More

While the hotel has character and was beautifully decorated for the holidays, its rooms are smaller than one would expect at the Sheraton. There is no pool, and in general the facilities are old, though nicely maintained. The window in my room was very small, and the floor wasn't entirely level. The hotel charged $2 for bottled water, though in... More

We were visiting Harvard the week after Christmas and decided to stay at this hotel. Although parking is in a lot adjacent to the hotel (and costs $29 per night) the process of leaving the car there was very early, and the claim ticket was stamped by the front desk upon paying the fee on check in. I was pleasantly... More

The staff were professional and efficient. The environment was homey. The room was very comfortable as was the bed. The location for us was fabulous... in a residential neighborhood, a short walk to Harvard square and the redline train. We especially enjoyed walking through a revolution era cemetary on our way to the square. All in all, our favorite place... More

Stopped by Cambridge on a lovely fall day and ended up at the Sheraton Commander. Insides are a little dated and front desk service was a little slow on the uptake. Room was a nice corner position with windows on two walls...but opened up to ridiculous levels of street noise including trash trucks at ungodly hours of the morning. Also... More

I recently visited a friend in Boston and while I was there I met up with another friend who was staying at the Sheraton Commander because I recommended it after having such great experiences there. I have visited the Sheraton Commander many times as far back as the late nineties. This hotel is one of my favorites and the staff... More
