Wonderful location

Great location, clean room and building, comfortable. Be aware that there is no elevator, but if that's not a concern, this is a great place to stay
Vanessa, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is in very good condition. The room is spacious and comfortable. There is a laundry facility next to my room. The kids of the family above me made a lot of noise as I hear the running and stumping clearly from below.
Joy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful experience. Spacious property in a great location. It’s right by BU housing and had a lot of walkable amenities and was close to the T station.

Thanks for a great stay in Boston!

Excellent location near Boston University, bars, restaurants, etc and just a few minute walk to Fenway. We had the downstairs suite which was extremely roomy and had a full kitchen. While there was no front desk, the reservation team was responsive, polite and helpful.

Great space and convenient

This property was amazing! From communication to cleanliness to location! I was beyond impressed! I will be staying here exclusively when returning to Boston! Fantastic management!
Gina, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful!

My daughter and I stayed here for a couple days while she was checking out BU. It’s a great location near the university. Beautiful old building and recently renovated. We contacted the hotel a couple times and they were quick to respond and very friendly. I hope to stay here again in the future.
Kari, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in the one bedroom suite with family of 5, it was a perfect stay. Suite was beautifully decorated and bed was as comfortable as my bed at home. Kitchen had everything we needed for dinner in. Close to T and Fenway, area felt very safe and walkable with kids. Utilized parking out back which was convenient. Would definitely stay again when visiting Boston.

Boston Charm with Great Location

We loved the location of the Charlesgate Suites. You're a couple of blocks away from the Kenmore station which is located on the green line for the T which allows you to get to basically an part of Boston. Our family enjoyed the charm of this brownstone home as it felt reflective of Boston's character itself, but the interior has been updated for comfort. If we're to visit Boston again we'd certainly consider staying at Charlesgate Suites again.
Joshua, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Except for the lack of an elevator and a little mixup in the door codes, everything works for a comfortable stay

Absolutely amazing apartment, beds were comfy, everything we could ask for not too far from everything, communicating was spot on. Thank you very much
Brett, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Large stylish room with amazing views. Functional kitchen, nice gas fireplace. 4th floor with no elevator meant great exercise
Peter, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would recommend

We had an excellent stay, it was nice and clean. The location was amazing. The service had some slight hiccups with communication but overall very good and helpful when needed. It did get warm in the room at times because the AC couldn’t stay at a certain temperature consistently, but not to a point where it was uncomfortable. Would definitely recommend and would come back if we ever visit Boston again.
Lyanne, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Pros: old school “row house” vibe, right outside of Boston University; felt pretty safe, with lots of food/bars in the area, with transportation and shopping close by too. Cons: very small, noisy, especially on lower floors; limited space to put your things/lacked function in many areas. Needs some maintenance in certain areas.
Matthew, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property and beautiful and clean room. The king size bed was comfortable as was the queen pull out sofa bed! Communication was via text and email. The only thing I would desire would be to have blackout curtains. Otherwise perfect!
Chad, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great place and location, a few hassles

We had problems with registering online and uploading photo ID in advance, and when we arrived the automated door lock wasn't working, so we had to reach out via hotels.com to get the back door code. It was a hassle -- but thankfully they responded promptly (it was during day time, I wouldn't have wanted to deal with this at night) -- but once we got into the unit, it was excellent. Spacious, very comfortable beds and furniture, great shower, clean, convenient to BU and transit. The kitchen was minimally stocked and could have included a few things for cooking (salt/paper, maybe oil/viengar) in addition to the coffee/sugar supplies provided. We really enjoyed out visit and will stay again, with the caveat of knowing to expect a few hassles, given its great location and comfortable amenities.
Christina, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location with a short walk to lots of shopping , food and architecture. Modern clean room with functional kitchen . Bathroom has radiant heat flooring. If I had to pick at any minor issues it would be the noise as a result of facing the highways (I liked it but others in my family didnt) and some minor trash around the parking lot area. Overall very satisfied for the price.

Gorgeous Accommations Near Kenmore Square

Having gone to college and lived in the area years ago, I was excited to find this property to be our homebase asI took my children on collgege tours. It is a beautiful brownstone just a few minutes walk from the Kenmore T station, but it was incredibly quiet!. Knowing there are dorms and fraternity houses close by, I wondered if it would be chaotic and loud, but it was peaceful and serene. The unit itself was beautiful and had everything we needed for 3 of us to stay comfortably. Everything was immaculate. The only downside (which I knew going in) was staying on the 3rd floor with no elevator. However, our beautiful view more than made up for having to lug suitases up and down.
Karen, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great space, great location. Just as advertised. Oct 2024 EVERYTHING looked new…floors, appliances, paint, furniture. Everything. Everything worked well ( though the fireplace would only stay lit for 5 minutes. Exactly FIVE). Communication was awesome. Prompt and helpful. Only criticism: did not know that there was NO ELEVATOR until the day of check in. At 61 with bad knees and four bags, getting settled in was a major hassle. Four narrow flights of winding stairs. Other than that…outstanding!!!
Mark, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful renovated unit, very comfortable bed, great modern kitchen, very clean and cozy. Great place to stay in Boston if you travel with family and need a kitchen, and more space than a hotel room. Just be aware there is no elevator, unless you don’t mind using stairs. There is an available parking in the back of the building for an extra fee ( it was very convenient for us that we didn’t have to worry to look for a street parking especially at night). I would definitely recommend and stay there again visiting Boston. I hope that area behind the building will be taken care of and cleaned up as it was very unpleasant to use a back door where we parked our car. Unfortunately a lot of places in Boston are very dirty, pot holes, trash and unpleasant odors in majority of the city. Overall excellent studio in the great location!
