What guests think

Across many reviews, Courtyard by Marriott Boston Waltham is praised for very clean, comfortable rooms and friendly service, with a convenient location just off major highways making it an easy base for visits to Boston, Lexington, and Concord.

Amenities include a good fitness center, a small indoor pool, free parking, and a pleasant courtyard and lobby; several travelers also appreciated the pet friendly setup. Common trade-offs are no free breakfast and a limited, sometimes pricey bistro, and several rooms lack microwaves. A minority mention drawbacks like occasional noise or HVAC issues and a location that is not very walkable or convenient for public transit. Overall, expect a modern, suburban base that works best for travelers with a car.

This property was conveniently right off the highway and very clean with a comfy bed and huge flat screen TV. Its a busy place but they had a parking lot and parking garage so plenty of free parking to choose from. The mini fridge kept all our stuff cold and was pretty spacious! Overall great stay for a quick overnight!

Even though the hotel is right on a major highway with traffic whizzing by, there are actually lovely views of a lake and nature. I did have a little trouble finding a parking place when I got back around 10 PM

Very clean facility, rooms were nice, pool was clean. No breakfast included which we knew and were okay with. Breakfast offered to purchase through restaurant wasn’t super kid friendly. Again, not a huge issue the hotel itself was nice and we’d stay again

We stayed here due to the proximity to Lexington and Concord for the 250th celebration. Check in was super easy around 4:45pm. We went out to dinner and came back around 8pm. We were only there for 7 hours total before needing to be up and out by 3am to get to Lexington for the battle reenactment. It was a great place to sleep, get a shower, and grab a quick drink downstairs at the bar. The room was spotless and the staff were friendly, even when checking out at 3am. We would stay here again when coming up to the area to visit.

I liked that we could walk to a few restaurants close to this hotel for meals and the price was pretty reasonable. There are not many extras here, though. To access wifi you have to be a member. The channel selection on the TV was basic and there wasn’t complimentary coffee in the lobby like most places. I felt that it wasn’t very special or inviting.

Having a second floor room directly above the trash dumpsters on the day they are removed at 5:30 am was not exactly what I had in mind for a wake up call. While not dirty, the entire property needs a refresh. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

I reserved a room with a couch and fold out bed. Although my room was fine, there was only a chair and the bed. No couch. The staff was friendly and helpful. Top notch. The restaurant menu was VERY limited, and nothing appealed to us, so we ordered Uber Eats for dinner. Side note: I am an avid coffee drinker and enjoyed the Keurig in the room. I brought my own Kcups and bought some half and half at a nearby 7-11 to keep in the fridge since they only could offer powdered creamer. Otherwise, it was clean, comfortable and I will continue to stay at Mariott hotels. (Also, an actual tub would be nice. I like to lounge in the tub, and there are only showers. Maybe there's a reason for that? IDK. And a microwave.)

The hotel uses an energy saving AC feature that continued to malfunction, so we were on the 4th floor and our room was an unbearable 83 degrees all night. I don’t think we were the only effected guests as the technician was running around the hotel all night. Staff was very nice/receptive and felt for our situation but would not move our room and bc of Expedia 3rd party booking, would not adjust our room price.

(I did not ask them for anything or was grumpy or obnoxious. Just smile and say hello how can I help you)

Staff’s costumer service is admirable. However, the location of this hotel is not convenient for people who depends who depend on public transportation to move around Boston or do not want to spend too much on vacation commute. The hotel itself is perfect if you are looking for a quiet vacation, away from the city noise. Its clean, relatively new building, and if you’re lucky, get to experience the customer service of “Miss Mary” at the front desk.
