My daughter and I found the room to be very cosy. The staff were wonderful and looked after us very well. We would recommend Harding House to any one stay in the Boston or Cambridge area . more

Ignore the two bad reviews! first of all, this is a lovely Cambridge neighborhood, at least if you are walking towards Harvard Square, or up to Inman Square (I gather it is a little dicier if you walk towards Kendall Square on Cambridge St.), and both Central Square and Inman Square have great neighborhood restaurants and bars. The accommodations are... more

This is a wonderful bed and breakfast. Harding House combines the best of both worlds: a staffed reception desk as in a small hotel with a B&B-style casual dining area for breakfast and afternoon snacks. Our room and bath were modern-comfortable while the dining and living rooms were retro-comfortable (1950s overstuffed couch and chairs, etc.) The Harding House is close... more

I love Harding House. I've stayed here 3 times so far for about a week at a time as my office is nearby, so it works for me practically. Fair enough, it's not right in Harvard Sq, but it's a pleasant 15-20 minute walk up there, and if you want a handful of useful shops or the T, Central Sq... more

This is a great B&B: excellent location, friendly and knowledgeable staff, clean & comfortable rooms and all at a price well below what one could pay for a hotel in the Cambridge/Boston area. The location is close to Central station on the Boston subway, about 5 minutes walk (10 with bags), and also very close to some great bars and... more

I was a bit late getting a room for MIT parent's weekend and wound up booking one here, since all the other hotels in the vicinity were either booked or wanted 400+ dollars a night. I was pleasantly surprised. The location wasn't bad, about a 20-25 minute walk to the MIT student center, and a five-minute walk to the Central... more

the inn is not really convenient to anything except one sketchy area of Cambridge - I don't advise walking around alone at night. The rooms are just plain and not kept very clean. We found several large ants in our room just when we checked in and the room was quite dusty. The staff were at best disinterested and certainly... more

I went to Cambridge and wanted a place to stay that would be near my daughter and close to the T line. The Harding House certainly was wonderful. I was there alone with my other daughter and I felt very safe. It was cold and snowy and for someone from Florida it was nice and cosy inside. The people at... more

Staff were not friendly or welcoming. Breakfast was barely decent (stale muffins, cereal, bruised fruit, lousy coffee). The room was small and bland. For the price we paid, we expected a lot more. more
