This is my third time staying at Hotel 1868 and it is my go to hotel in Boston. The location is convenient to Harvard, and right across from the T so you can get around the city easily. Rooms are clean, well maintained and very comfortable and the staff are helpful and friendly.

Staff was incredible. Room wasn’t large but I was just there to sleep and shower. Bathroom was large and room was comfortable. Area around the hotel is safe with lots of places to eat. I was there for a reunion at Harvard Law School and it was an easy 15 minute walk. Would definitely stay again.
