The Scene
Located right on the Charles River, the Royal Sonesta offers rooms with a view, mostly of the river's picturesque sailboats, the Boston skyline across the way, or of Cambridge itself. The hotel's 400 guest rooms and 21 suites are all contemporary in decor, featuring stylish art work, handmade Tibetan rugs, heated marble floors, European beds and more.

The Details
All rooms offer cable TV, Sony Playstation, direct Internet access, T-1 and ISDN capabilities, two dual-line telephones with voice mail, in-room safe, minibar, iron and coffeemaker. There's also laundry service and a complimentary shuttle to points of interest. But what truly sets this hotel apart is the Sonesta Health Club, complete with Nautilus equipment, saunas, atrium-style pool with a retractable glass roof, Jacuzzi, personal trainers and spa services.

Great Location and Amenities

Hotel is great place to stay - convenient - across street from Cambridge Galleria (Cheesecake Factory, Papa Razzi) and down the street from Lechmere T stop providing easy access to Boston. Nice pool, friendly service. Great view of Charles River and Boston.
