Kimpton Marlowe Hotel, a U.S News Best Hotel of 2025
About us
NEWLY RENOVATED EVENT SPACE Kimpton Marlowe Hotel - overlooking Boston is located 5 minutes away from downtown Boston in Cambridge, adjacent to the Museum of Science and Charles River. The hotel offers the perfect venue for meetings up to 300 people with catering menu selections featuring seasonal, fresh flavors from our destination restaurant. Kimpton Marlowe Hotel resembles walking into a luxurious fantasy storybook, where a willingness to suspend judgment fosters a curious exploration. We welcome guests to daydream on a bench in our enchanting courtyard, to get immersed in a book on our outdoor patio or to engage with new friends over a glass of wine in our rich, romantic living room or bustling Bambara Kitchen + Bar restaurant. Our intuitive staff members stay two steps ahead, catering to your every need whether you’re here on a friend-fueled vacation or inspiring business retreat. We offer pampering amenities and thoughtful perks that ensure your time in our Cambridge home proves comfortable, luxurious and—much like this city—thought-provoking, stimulating and endlessly full of awe. Our guests’ curiosities are piqued from the moment they enter our welcoming courtyard, which happens to showcase a 25-foot-tall sculpture named Celeste that moves and lights up. Based upon this awe-inspiring first impression, it quickly becomes clear that we encourage a sense of discovery and exploration that perfectly complements our storied Boston home. Visitors immediately learn to love our riverside Cambridge hotel’s decadent and engaging and intuitive style and level of service that elevates the experience time and again.
