The Kendall Hotel at the Engine 7 Firehouse

Boutique hotel in the best location in Cambridge and well designed interior and staff are very helpful

Noting

breakfast was lovely. simple but well supplied and prepared. Location is awesome if you want to be in Cambridge. Proximity to the train ideal.

would have preferred if breakfast started before 7 am. I think that the "resort fee" was just an extra fee. There were not any resort amenities. They do have access to a gym, but we did not need that.

The staff was very nice and welcoming, room was excellent and I liked the homey vibe it gave, location was superb for my needs.

This is a fantastic hotel in a lovely old building. Our room was comfortable and clean, staff acceptable (some great, some ok) and the food wonderful. Alberto at the Black Sheep restaurant/bar was fantastic and the foods available for dinner great. We particularly liked the piri-piri crab roll with a sea of lightly spiced fine cut fries. The breakfasts are so good we stopped eating lunches. My go to breakfast was a burrito I put together with the scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, cheese and salsa. The pancakes, spiced potato’s, waffles, breads, pastries, grapes, mixed fruits, strawberry smoothies were all fantastic…but there were other choices as well. There were a number of good restaurants in the area, including a seafood restaurant next door, a fantanstic pizza place within 10 minutes. Well recommended.

Work-space was limited in the room, but the availability of the lobby/bar/restaurant space on the first floor generally made up for this. There isn't anything to complain about.
