Overview
Anchoring the renowned University Park at MIT, Le Meridien Cambridge stands amidst an area legendary for its infrastructure of invention.

The property is known for a distinctive guest experience, highlighted by the presence of MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab robots stationed throughout the lobby and a reputation for sophisticated service.

My First Stay At Le Meridien Will Not Be My Last!
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
The staff are friendly, courteous and extremely helpful. The room service was reasonably priced, with excellent food and expedient service. Its proximity to MIT and Harvard make it great for science nerds like me! :) I really like the modern decor, with the incorporation of MIT technology. I preferred to stay at this hotel and take the "T" to the Summer St. conference center, since the area around Le Meridien was way more interesting.

It is a very good hotel but by no way luxurious. The room was very good, the amenities were also quite good. But front desk was very poor as well as administration.

This property was formerly called The Hotel @ MIT and has wisely chosen to keep the former ambiance. The decor is new/old tech with all the rooms containing early photos of MIT and technology-based cartoons. Great fun and most unusual! It is one block from the MIT Museum which offers a window into some of the most cutting technology being done today on the MIT campus.

Overall efficient, well-located.
Learned on check-out that my rate included breakfast but was not offered any certificate at check-in. Manager wold not change the rate or erase the rate on the bill.
But otherwise, good experience.

Great and Not too Good
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Great location and front desk staff,
great interior with robots from MIT,
great room design.
Not so great: paying for wireless in the midst of MIT, TV needs updating (old), understaffed front desk and concierge.
