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.

We occupied two rooms for my second stay at this hotel. I find this hotel to be quieter than others. The hotel staff are all so kind, patient, and accommodating. They really want your stay to be great. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. There is a good selection of restaurants in the area and it is a very short ride to Newton-Wellesley Hospital, if you are in the area for medical appointments. We will definitely stay there on subsequent visits to the area!

Breakfast is relatively simple, but full, occasionally a bit salty and a bit burnt. The waiter is enthusiastic and recommends latte every day. I like quite a lot of customers, but I only drink black coffee, no taste.

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.

The service at the front desk is friendly, the hotel is strategically located, just next to the expressway, and there is a large parking lot. The room we booked has a balcony, and the nearby floors are not high outside, and we can enjoy the sunset view. The airtight sound insulation effect is good, and it is not affected by the sound of traffic. There is a swimming pool, suitable for children to play in the water; there is breakfast, mainly cold meals, which are relatively simple; there is a gym, which children like. There is an American restaurant on the first floor, which tastes good and has a large amount of food. Small downside is a little bit of old smell in the hallway, maybe because of the age of the facilities, it's acceptable.

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!

It's a little far from several famous tourist destinations. (About 30 minutes by car) Everything else was good. The room is spacious and clean.

The hotel is very new, there is a large parking lot, the equipment and facilities of the room are still very good, breakfast is not bad. The soundproofing of the room was good, although it was not far from the main traffic artery and there was no noise.
