Le Méridien Cambridge puts the emphasis on style, comfort, and connectivity just four blocks northwest of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In the lounge, for instance, walls of books surround leather chairs, sofas, and library tables wired for laptops. Art from the MIT collections adorns the walls. And, at the third-floor conference center, the names of eight high-tech meeting spaces honor the likes of Jerome C. Hunsaker (legendary aeronautical engineer), Florence Luscomb (architect and women's activist), and Lan Jen Chu (radar and communications).

Three elevators—with atomic symbols in the carpet—speed guests to the 210 rooms and suites, all equipped with sleek contemporary furniture and spacious bathrooms. Room service delivers popular menu items from Sidney's Lounge, or guests can dine at Sidney's Grill—known for presenting the season's freshest flavors with an innovative flair.

Average Rating: 5.14
This hotel is disappointment. My offices are across the street and most people would prefer to have meetings here for the convenience. However, I no longer host meetings at this facility or encourage people I work with to have meetings here. The food menu and options have seriously been diminshed and offer no imagination or taste. The rooms are cold and something is not working or there is an issue with each room I have visited or placed a client. The staff does not communicate well and is not friendly. The restaurant is over priced and no dish is the same when it's ordered repeatedly. This hotel has given up on trying, as they know the business nearby have little to no options and will use them out of convenience not because it's a good property. For Starwood hotels this property should be an embarrassment.
