“Cambridge-side family pick”
A ten-minute walk from the metro and within walking distance of the science museum and ballpark, The Royal Sonesta Boston is a perfect-for-families excellent stay: clean sanitary rooms, a beautiful quiet environment, lemon and cucumber water on hand, friendly staff, top-notch service, a wonderful spa and an amazing heated pool with extra-comfy cots that kids loved.
