Good location near Boston with easy access to the freeway and universities. We stayed there for 3 nights. The room size are adequate for a family of four plus you get a hot breakfast in the morning. The hotel is not luxury but the rates are very reasonable. Very satisfied.

I did not want to spend the hefty prices for hotels in Boston, so for a weekend trip mid-March, I opted for this hotel which is about 25 mins away. I made an execllent choice. My family of six (2 pre-teens, 2 teenagers, 2 adults) was able to fit comfortably in a standard 2 double bed suite with pull-out sofa... More

I am sorry to say that the Embassy Suites in Waltham (our home town) did not meet our expectations for the cost of the room. The cleanliness of the room was not up to par, and our neighbors were quite noisy. We ordered room service and the tray with dirty dishes spent the night outside our door where I nearly... More

Despite suites, the hotel is clearly a business hotel (on the day I stayed, anyway, I saw not one child). Clean place, nice room, friendly front desk. But I took a point off my review for each of these problems. First, the pool. There was no attendant (I arrived at 4 p.m.). There are no locks on the men's lockers.... More

I've been to this hotel again 2 weeks ago and it was as nice as before. It's my third time over there. Nothing negative to say. I like the location of this place. It's near the riverside subway station. Perfect deal for people who want to visit boston. Great hotel, clean and great breakfast! will return!

The Embassy Suites was clean, staff was pleasant and location was perfect for our off-site meetings. It was our first time in an Embassy Suites and we found the amount of space in the rooms to be perfect. There is also a complimentary breakfast with made to order omelets. Nice inclusion!

Clean, nicely appointed and laid out hotel. Had a couple of complaints, however: some odd stains on furnishings in living room area, and dinner was overpriced, not very good, and portrayed as something much nicer than it was. I was not impressed with the hospitality of the wait staff at dinner. Very disappointing. However, this was balanced by a lovely... More
