Hotels near Riverside Train Station, Newton

Nice hotel, about 1.7 kilometers from the nearest subway, walking distance. Many country houses nearby are beautiful, and the Charles River can be seen by opening the window.

My wife and I recently stayed at this hotel for about a week during which time we were accused of smoking on the premises when neither my wife or I smoke first it went from the alarm went off to housekeeping and staff walked by and smells a strong odor coming from the room to then it be a supervisor walking by and smelling a strong odor and then when we finally said, please come in because we don’t smoke and they saw that we had the window open. It turned into all we had a security guard that walked by and Shasha buddy, hanging out the window and smoking if which, if that was the case I’m sure they would have led with that rather than give us the eight other excuses first , furthermore, if Security actually saw somebody hanging out the window smoking, I’m sure we would’ve gotten an immediate phone call from the front desk regarding the danger of somebody hanging out the window and the fact that they don’t allow smoking on the premises. It is my opinion as my wife’s as well with the only reason that they continuously said these things was to try and get us to leave early so that they could rent the room out to somebody at full price because we were getting the room at a discounted rate. Disappointing to be treated like you’re less of a customer because you use one of these third-party applications the gentleman at the front desk was very hospitable. However, everybody else is there was extraordinarily disrespectful as a complete and utter opposite.

Oct2022: 3⭐: I selected this hotel as a result of needing a place close to the house with easy access to the airport. I selected this hotel through the Bonvoy app based on it fitting the criteria I desired. I wasn't able to get to the hotel until the afternoon hours about 1700. I picked up my spouse from the airport and we decided to get her checked in at the hotel on the way to the hospital down the toll road. I noted that the hotel was difficult to enter and it took a bit of concentration to locate the front entrance of the hotel as it sits over top of the tollway 90. There were two handicapped parking areas available at the check in lot. There is a pay parking garage attached to the hotel and adjacent to the front entrance into the hotel. The parking garage has more handicapped parking areas available and regular parking as well. The areas are not good for large trucks or RVs. The entrance was located and I parked and we went into the hotel. We walked to the front desk and a female worker didn't greet us, didn't say hello, nor did she say welcome to the hotel. The worker said ”give me your id”. My wife was standing there to my side and I looked to see if there was someone else there we had stepped in front of or cut in line. There was no one there but us. My wife said what did she say? Is this the check in desk? I commented that this is the check in window, right? What happened to the smile, good afternoon, welcome to Sheraton, or just hello. DEMANDING my identification upon entering the building was definitely not appropriate. Having a bad day isn't MY fault. I have a choice to choose this location, not the other way around. We finished the check in at the desk, paid for parking, and we went to the room. We dropped off the bags and found that the bathroom door sags and does not properly close as it's hitting the bottom of the frame. One of the window blinds wasn't properly functional. The noise canceling device and the traffic was something to tolerate. Some vehicle drivers passing under the hotel on the tollway, enjoyed throttling the engine. This added noise to an already bad situation. Decent area food spots are walking distance from the hotel.

Great place comfortable beds hot breakfast 🥐🍳 awesome front desk workers very very friendly an helpful i been coming here for over a yr an i love here

Stayed here for four nights while visiting our daughter in grad school. Typical Homewood Suites, one bedroom was very spacious for our family. Due to checking in and using the key on the app, we did not have much contact with staff, but when we did, they were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was as expected post-Covid yet some of the hot items were really very good. Location off 95 was very convenient and although our room faced the highway, noise was not a problem. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Some maintenance is needed as curtains and carpet were stained but nothing terrible; the suite was clean otherwise. The hotel was very busy yet we did not really hear any neighbor noise. Will definitely stay here again when in the area!

The Crescent is located in a unique but convenient location, with both business and residential properties. It has a great feature—a long walk along the river out the back door. It is, however, a short (10 minute) walk along the river to downtown Waltham and great restaurants and a movie theatre. We stayed a week, had our dog, and he loved it too. The rooms are all suites, large and well-appointed with a complete kitchen. The place is clean and serves a great breakfast. To top it off, the front desk staff is very helpful, friendly and professional. No question, this will be our go-to place to stay in Boston.

I wish i knew that the restaurant was closed before booking it, i would not have stayed there.

I was on the 3rd floor and overall, enjoyed the stay. There were a few hiccups that I was able to ”get over” (1st world problems!) - such as an outlet not working, a few things showing their age in the bathroom that housekeeping and maintenance SHOULD have caught - a broken sink drain plug cover, the shower escutcheon coming loose, a shower stall water ***** coming off. I noted that to the front desk and they were able to get them - partially - addressed while I was out for work. The food offered was almost the same every day but c'est la vie and wish the bar was back but maybe that will be there when the pandemic is officially an endemic. Speaking of the pandemic, there were plenty of signs around stating the mask mandate within the town of Waltham but I did not see any enforcement and plenty of people walking around without masks; thus that must have been a checkbox checked to make management happy but no real enforcement. Nice, spacious gym with enough equipment for a good workout with a water cooler. Good amount of parking including some covered.

Very good hotel, good location, more than 20 minutes from MIT and Harvard University, room facilities are good, but also cooking. Pots and pans are complete, dishwasher is also very good, large refrigerator Very real, free parking, great, staying here next time.

The location is next to other hotels in the same area. In the middle of the night, I met the front desk of the unskilled operation and waited for a long time. The room is large, the air conditioner is loud, there is a big closet, there is a sofa table for the guest sofa, there are kitchen equipment and a large refrigerator. It should be something to eat by yourself. Similar to a single apartment, it is more suitable to stay for a few days, if you drive the most. Ok, you can go out and buy ingredients. But the sound insulation is not very good, breakfast is almost no, only coffee and a small cake, maybe most people make their own breakfast in the room. I left early, the kitchen equipment was useless, I don't know how.
