Recommend
Lovely boutique hotel, easy valet parking, great location, room with queen was comfortable and clean. The only draw back was that the bathroom was incredibly and abnormally small. Great hotel if you're travels involves being out and about most of the day.

Highly recommended hotel
Excellent location and comfortable room make this a highly recommended hotel during my first visit to Cambridge. Decided to base here instead of Boston where hotel prices are quite exorbitant. Would be great if there was a hairdryer in the room but everything else is well taken care of. Would stay here again should I revisit this charming town.

Perfect Short Cambridge Stay
It was perfect for a short stay for 2 people. The room came with 2 small bathrooms, each with a shower. This was wonderful. The living room was a decent size and had a desk, which was great for working. Bedroom was on the small side, but the 2 bathrooms made up for that.

One to return to
Porter hotel provides good, basic accommodation with a few very important extras like a very good coffee machine, limitless bottled water, boiling water and ice. There is 24 hour reception manned by pleasant helpful staff.

Convenient Location
Convenient location in Cambridge. Walking distance to restaurants and shops. Close to mass transit. My complaint with this hotel was that the room looked nice but wasn't very comfortable or easy to use. The room was very small and the bathroom fixtures weren't very functional.

Show in Boston
Nice hotel, very close (1 minute walk) to the T and shopping area. Great new restaurant inside with a very good breakfast. Nice Thai restaurant across the street. It was a very good experience and excellent alternative to downtown Boston when hotels are $500+ per night
