I like to stay here because it’s a short walk from Harvard Square and public transportation on metro and bus. Easy to get to South Station. Nice rooms, good buffet breakfast, homemade cookies, ice. Even the shared bathrooms are fine. Of course you can an en-suite room as well. Parking on site.

Irving House exceeded my expectations. I arrived in Boston for a short night and a flight out very early the next day to the west coast. It was easy and quick (15 mins give or take) to get to (we didnt have traffic as I arrived Saturday afternoon and left 4:45 am Sunday). My room was very clean and well appointed as was the full bathroom across the hall which was very convenient. Both of the staff I encountered on the evening shift and night/early am shift were super friendly, informative, and helpful. It was great to have access to a fridge and freezer as I travel with some food. Soo appreciated. Oh, and the coffee they serve in the lobby was surprisingly REALLY good. I didn't get to eat their breakfast as I left too early but expect it was on par with the rest of their effort and performance. Neighborhood feels safe and I was able to take a nice evening stroll and feel very comfortable as a single 60-something woman. All around 5+ stars. Thank you and Great Job!

The room was small but quiet and the (twin) bed was comfortable. Breakfast options were varied and quite good. Overall, this place us a little pricey for a room with a shared bath, but it was…fine
