I really enjoyed the location of this hotel, very comfortable
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean, comfortable, cozy room on the edge of Harvard Square, which means a little noise (including subway, club across the street, etc.). Also means proximity to public transportation (subway, bus, etc.), as well as stores, restaurants, museums, etc. Reasonable value. Friendly front desk staff. Would stay here again.

Quaint, close to Harvard University, Harvard square. Perfect location.
Sabine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Hotel Veritas is a beautiful boutique hotel in the heart of Harvard Square. It is in an extremely walkable location with easy access to the red line subway straight into Boston. I felt safe and extremely at-home staying there. I would have lived a full-length mirror and recycling bin in the room.
Diane, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Treasure in Cambridge

This is one of the cutest boutique hotels I’ve ever been to and the front desk, staff in the morning, during the day, and late at night we’re all equally stellar. The grab and go water, the wonderful assortment of hot teas, and the fancy Nespresso machine was an added bonus. The next time I’m in Boston, I will absolutely stay here again.
Nicole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location is very good and convenient. 3/4 minutes walk from the Harvard university, and have nice staffs. Water and tea/ coffee available all the time at free of cost. I loved this place because my son is staying 1 minute away from the hotel.
Nilufa, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved that they provided free water and nespresso in the lobby. Would be ideal if there was a fridge in the room. But overall was a pleasant stay.
Stephanie Yini, 3-night trip
