The upscale, 400-room Royal Sonesta Hotel is a modern, business-friendly property in East Cambridge, with beautiful views of the Charles River and the Cambridge and Boston skylines. The hotel offers plenty of amenities, including two popular restaurants, a lobby coffee shop, 24-hour fitness center, indoor lap pool, and free car service on certain days and times. Waterfront meeting and event space -- renovated in 2015 through 2016 -- is another perk. Guest rooms are modern, bright, and spacious, with flat-screen TVs and sleek bathrooms. Royal Sonesta's neighbor Hotel Marlowe offers a boutique-like feel at a reasonable price, but it lacks a pool.
