Mary Prentiss Inn

It was awesome place to stay over the trip. They were totally kind and adorable. I bet whoever visit to stay here will be satisfied that. Finally, free breakfast and tea time at night were the best meals I've ever had.

The Mary prentiss inn was perfect. I was in Cambridge for a yoga workshop and wanted to be within walking distance. It was perfect in every way-location-room. U loved leaving my room every morning to the smell of breakfast. I felt like I was staying at someone's home. Unfortunately I had to leave before breakfast was served each morning. However they […] were very accommodating as one o the woman that stayed there asked that they have some cold cereal out for her knowing she too would be leaving before breakfast was served. Adorable rooms and great location. Would love to come back for a night with my husband. Thank you! Leer más

This is a delightful, homey, comfortable haven in crowded Cambridge. The staff, accommodations, ambience and breakfast are as good as can be had, comparing favorably to expensive hotels. The convenience of the location and the considerate style put this on the top of our list for the area.

We stayed there over christmas and for this time it was a very nice and pretty place to stay. The room was kept in old style but newly renovated and modern with a flat TV. We had a fireplace in our room which were ready to use so it made the stay over christmas even nicer and romantic. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Especially the price and […] the FREE parking is it worth to book this Inn. Overall it is a great place to stay and we enjoyed the time over there. Leer más

Sweet, cozy and convenient location, beautifully restored and maintained! Free parking around Boston is rare (I paid $36 for 2 hours during sightseeing), as parking was included, it made the one night stay an extra bargain. Loved the room, which turned out to be a suite with microwave and fridge, and bed upstairs! Staff were so much nicer than the airport […] hotel I had stayed in a couple of nights before. Highly recommend this for a short trip to Cambridge/Boston area. Leer más

Lovely inn in a esidential neighborhood setting close to Harvard and Mass. Ave. for interesting shopping and good restaurants. Loved the morning breakfast - good healthy food!

I made the reservation without thinking that this is a B&B and not a hotel which mean't that my late arrival (after 11pm) would create a problem for them. The night manager was nice enough to stay up and wait for me and my room was ready and very clean. This is an old house that is very quaint with original photos and furniture so if you are expecting […] something modern, look elsewhere. The hot water for my shower took ten minutes to arrive. There is precious little room to sit anywhere in the room and no working space at all. But it is a B&B so no one is expecting you to remain in the room all day. The breakfast was very good and a definite plus. Warning: if you are driving with your own car or a rental, parking will be a problem. Their underground garage is very cramped. Definitely do not bring an SUV! On street parking is very limited. Leer más

Nice little get-away off the beaten path. Cool stores in the vicinity; more of a local experience. Beautiful old house, with a good breakfast included. Good experience!

a bit pricey

My wife and I had a great experience here. The Inn had friendly staff and was located in a beautifully restored historic house. We were on a budget and got way more than we had hoped for. The free parking and a free REAL breakfast were welcomed. Our room opened up onto a shared deck couryard with plants and places to sit and relax. Easy 10 min walk […] to Harvard Square and 3 minutes to Porter Station on the Red Line. Also, a Rite Aid and a few small restaurants were within 1 minute walk on Mass Ave. Leer más

Wonderful staff and great breakfast. Make sure you have a small rental car because parking is difficult to find.

When I arrived at the Mary Prentiss Inn the staff made me feel comfortable and welcome, they maintained a level of excellent service throughout my stay. My flight arrived early, before normal check-in, and my room was prepared and available. The room was spacious, well cleaned, and wonderfully decorated. The bed was very comfortable, and the room amenities […] all worked well. The morning breakfast menus are delicious, and filling, and the afternoon tea time was relaxing. In fact, the only criticism I have with the entire stay is with the shower head, that sprayed in many directions, and the shower basket which continuously fell into the tub when in use. In all, two minute events in a wonderful stay. My travel brought me to Boston for a graduation in Cambridge, and the Inn's convenient location by T stops allowed me to ride into the city for a day's events and back in little time. I highly recommend the Inn during any length of stay in Boston, for a week or a weekend, the Inn is wonderful and well staffed . Leer más

I had a very nice stay at Mary Prentiss Inn. Very nice interior. Very cosy feel to it. Very close the Harvard University, walking distance. Also reasonably close to the Metro. The room was quiet, although it was possible to hear the neighbours at times, but it seems everybody was trying to keep quiet - hence, depending on your neighbours at the time […] you are there, things may be more noisy; the sound proofing between rooms is not so good. The plumbing was also a bit noisy and could be improved. Still I would go back tl the Mary Prentiss Inn any time again. Leer más

Enjoyed everything about the place, but the bed; 4-star joint but for the bed. Very bouncy. Every time I turned over, I woke my sleep-mate, and vice versa. Next time I'm getting a room with two beds. Nice looking old place. Very enjoyable breakfast that looks like it would be even better in the summer, served on the patio. Parking lot was full, but […] easy parking on the street Saturday night after 10:00PM, when local parking stickers aren't necessary. Leer más

My stay was very pleasant. Clean room. Welcoming service. Great location for the purpose of my visit. Very well maintained. I would definitely stay there again if in the area.

This was a great find, with charming accommodations for a fair price. I enjoyed the breakfast and the cookies. One tip--if it looks too hard for you to back out of the parking area yourself, park somewhere else.

This was a lovely hotel for the price I paid. There was coffee and tea each afternoon and you were able to sign up for the breakfast you wanted. The portions were great and the menu is posted the night before. A nice walk to Harvard square and to the T. Parking was tight so once we got a space we left it for the entire stay. When I am in Cambridge I […] will stay here again. The location and service was wonderful. The only criticism is almost all the baked goods have nuts, this is a common allergy so I was surprised to see the lack of "nut free" options. Leer más

Loved everything about this charming B & B -- beautiful room, comfortable bed, great breakfast, location, and service, and the parking was a definite plus. The only complaint is that the bathroom, though nice, was cramped, with no counter space, hooks for a robe, no soap rack in the shower, etc. We were in a newer wing behind the historic building (I […] think it was the bridal suite). It had a large jacuzzi tub, which didn't leave room for a well-designed shower. Leer más

Very comfortable. My room was plenty big (although I understand each room is a bit different). Everything was nice and clean. I expected plumbing/hot water problems since it's a historic building, but had no such difficulties! Friendly staff. Breakfast and afternoon tea were both awesome.

I was looking for a nice place to stay while up in Boston for a Sox game. The Inn looked nice and the price was right, especially when compared to other Boston hotels. It was much more than I expected. The room was lovely - not big, mind you - but lovely. The Inn itself very charming and the morning breakfast was great. They had parking (at no additional […] cost - unlike most Boston hotels) and is a mere 5 minute walk from Porter Square and perhaps a 15 minute walk from Harvard Square. Helpful and friendly staff. Clean, comfortable, charming rooms. I recommend it highly. Leer más

I was pleasantly surprised with my stay here. The room was lovely and very comfortable. The price is an outstanding deal for the area. The parking is a little tight but it's safe and convenient. I wish that I had been able to stay more than one night here.

I come to this B&B because it is within walking distance to my daughter's home...the grand-girls can visit me for tea and walk home afterwards. I will be coming here on a regular basis.

The staff was quite cordial but when I checked in I had to carry my own luggage up to the third floor. There is no elevator and the stairs are steep so try to book a room on the first or second floor if possible. The breakfasts are delicious and the cookies served at tea time are great. The hotel is located about 4 blocks from Porter Square and about […] a 20 minute walk from Harvard Square. I would recommend this hotel. Leer más

Excellent location between Harvard and Porter Square. Easily accessible by the "T." Cozy room with ample tasty breakfast and tea in the afternoon.
