Frommer's "This plush, ultramodern hotel is a magnet for visiting celebrities -- the state-of-the-art Sports Club/LA is a powerful draw -- as well as the Ritz-Carlton brand." Full review
Concierge "The 193 rooms (43 of these are suites) are done up in cheery hues of apricot, blue, and yellow, with hardwood furniture and flat-screen TVs."
Fodor's "The Sports Club/LA, the Ritz's mega–fitness center, is the go-to gym for visiting celebs and poptarts, so you might feel a bit more fabulous... simply by hanging out here." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Boston’s only Ritz (the Taj chain bought the famous Back Bay property in 2006) is an 12-story glass-and-steel monolith that looms above the Common’s greenery." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This is a good alternative for those seeking the trademark pampering of Ritz hotels, but who prefer a more modern decor and sensibility."
Star Service "Among the chain's finest, a contemporary outpost with a civilized residential undertone that appeals to a wide spectrum of well-traveled, well-heeled visitors including rock stars, politicians and CEO." Full review
Gayot "Accommodations feature marble bathrooms with large soaking tubs, Bulgari bath products and huge windows overlooking the Boston skyline."

Ask for a room at the back of the property (numbers that end in "01" and "02") if street noise is a concern.

"This cozy, 31-room boutique hotel has a stately Cambridge location a few blocks from Harvard Square, with easy access to the subway and several area colleges." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This luxury four-story boutique hotel near Harvard University features mostly queen-bedded, intimate rooms with rich linens, and relaxed contemporary styling."
Rough Guide "Right in Harvard Square, this chic thirty-room European-style hideaway really puts the “ooh” into boutique hotel."
Gayot "What it lacks in space it makes up for in New England charm. Even the maids here are decked out in Brooks Brothers uniforms."
Travel + Leisure "A night at this 31-room Harvard Square hotel would be well-spent lingering in the lobby. Rooms are equally intimate, decorated in warm earth tones with intricate molding details." Full review
Jetsetter "Reimagined Victorian townhouse, with French-modern interiors and smart service in Harvard Square." Full review
