Top The Alchemist Hotel Reviews

Arcadian Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our first visit to Boston. The hotel staff, especially Bill, at the front desk was great. Just a couple comments, only one chair in the room and it's a little tight getting into the tub. But all else was great, right in the metro "C" line, Trader Joes and lots of eating places in close proximity."

Beacon Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property was very nice and new. The decor was lovely and conducive to getting work done. The staff was outstanding --kind, friendly, informative and extremely helpful. I really enjoyed my stay and will stay the again on my next trip to the Cambridge/Boston area."

Studio Allston Hotel

8/10 Good

"I really enjoyed my stay. I was in town for a work trip. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, the staff was incredibly nice. The breakfast was decent. The building is fairly old, and as such, things break or don't always work properly but none of that detracted from my stay. I'd happily stay here again."

Courtyard by Marriott Boston-Cambridge

8/10 Good

"I stayed for two nights (solo) for a nearby conference. The area is quiet. The rooms were standard, and clean. It was close to food options. The staff was also helpful with any questions."

The Charles Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff at check-in, a well-stocked room off the lobby filled with complimentary candies (and to-go bags!), and charmingly-designed rooms made this a lovely stay. The location off Harvard Square made getting to and from the hotel so easy."

Hotel 1868

10/10 Excellent

"The location is very conveniently located across from the red line. The hotel provides water, coffee, and tea in each room which is a nice touch. Everything was clean. I would definitely stay here again!"
