Le Méridien Boston Cambridge

The wedding day itself went perfectly, and Ashley Sullivan made sure I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She was warm throughout and handled all the details with plenty of notice and flexibility, starting from our very first conversation. That made a potentially stressful day feel like a delight. The rest of the experience was just as good, from the cordial welcome at the front desk through checkout. I’m so grateful for Ashley’s support and compassion, and for how smoothly everything went. I’d host another function here, and if you’re considering this as a venue, don’t hesitate.

You’d be hard pressed to find a better spot if you’re going to MIT. The front desk and bell staff, including Ashley and Jacob, are top notch, and the breakfast buffet is good. It’s handy to have an ATM on site, too. The rooms are clean and well equipped, though a few signs of age are showing: a tub faucet that leaks, a door handle that droops, and little furniture scuffs.

My family and I were there in early November for my daughter’s wedding nearby. Sorting out the room blocks and welcome bags for our guests could have been a lot to manage, but Nancy Rodriguez and Maria Carter at the front desk were courteous and helpful all week. The whole staff made the special weekend go smoothly. Thank you to everyone, especially Nancy and Maria!

The $12.50 daily restaurant credit that came with the $25 nightly destination fee went unused. Breakfast was so understaffed when we tried it, there weren’t any good vegan choices, dinner had closed by the time we returned, and we don’t really drink. That fee felt like a ripoff, and honestly a bit insulting. Just add the cost to the room rate instead of nickel and diming guests, especially when it wouldn’t put the hotel above nearby places. The room itself was nice enough, but the heating and AC unit was pretty loud.
