The Charles Hotel451

Whether your child is aspiring to be a student at Harvard or just loves walking through history, The Charles Hotel makes the ideal home away from home.

The hotel offers baby furniture, a Kids Kit Welcome amenity, classic board games, children's books (including the entire Curious George collection) from their library and local bookstores, a night light, outlet protectors, and an in-room dining menu designed for the young palate.

Wellbridge Athletic Club, located adjacent to the hotel, has an indoor, rooftop pool with designated children's hours.

For special events and family packages throughout the year, visit the hotel's website.

In the winter (Dec-Feb), lace up and enjoy ice skating on the 2,900 square-foot outdoor rink right in Harvard Square. The rink, run by the hotel, is open to the public as well as hotel guests.
