Cambridge offers visitors lots of unique and accommodating hotel options. For the meeting planner however, these selections below will deliver convenient amenities and eclectic Cambridge vibes, along with the expertise to elevate your event so you and your team can seamlessly get stuff done.
- Le Meridien: With nine conference rooms offering flexible meeting space for 5-250, you can connect in confidence and then relax in style.
- Royal Sonesta: Whether you're planning a small team get-together or a big event, Royal Sonesta has got you covered with stunning views of the Charles River and places to unwind such as their outdoor riverside dining option, ArtBar, or their brand-new modern Italian restaurant, Monteverdi.
- Marriott Boston Cambridge: The largest ballroom in Cambridge. Accommodate up to 1,150 conference guests in a grand theater layout right in the heart of Kendall Square.
Or you can take a page out of the Cambridge book and go completely unconventional with unique and memorable meeting spots like:
- Harvard Art Museums: Talk about an inspiring location. Where you can go have a meeting with your team—and Van Gogh, Manet and Cézanne—all under a breathtaking glass roof. Take a break from fine-tuning your business with some of the world’s finest works of art, right outside your meeting room. No lines, no tickets, just you, your team and some big “wow” moments.
- Multicultural Arts Center: The Multicultural Art Center is a non-profit corporation founded in 1978 as an arts center focused on helping diverse populations better understand one another. Its event space is beautiful and the perfect place to connect with your team.
After your long day of whiteboards, podiums and breakout groups, you might be looking for a change of pace. Well, good thing you’re in Cambridge. We have something for everyone. The foodies, the historians, the rockers and the relaxers. You’ve never experienced after-hours like this before. Here are a few of the Cambridge must-sees, must-tastes and must-dos.
- Cambridge Crossing: 11 acres of green space where you can scratch that competitive itch. (All sports equipment is free to use). After breaking a sweat head to the greenhouse-inspired Lexington restaurant or Lamplighter Brewing Co. for a beverage and bite.
- Roxy’s Arcade: It’s exactly what you think. An amazing speakeasy-style arcade bar where you can eat, play and nerd out. Come see what’s behind the freezer door. We’re not going to tell you.
- Yume Wo Katare: Voted one of Boston’s “Best Ramen Restaurants,” Yume Wo Katare is Japanese for “Share your Dreams,” which makes sense because all you’ll do is dream about this ramen after you try it.
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to everything Cambridge has to offer. It’s a place that brings the perfect balance of experiences for the professional looking to mix it up a little.
A place of unexpected contrasts. Where you can play rooftop pickleball in the most innovative square mile in the world. Right where MIT and Harvard are changing the world. That’s Cambridge in a nutshell.
You see, you don’t take a trip to Cambridge, it takes you. And no matter what you're doing while you’re here, you’ll always find a lot to unpack.
