This direct-access deluxe king has its own private entrance off Prentiss Street, adjacent to the main house. Guests in this room are afforded a bit more privacy with this location but also have access to the main house to take advantage of our lounge areas and common amenities. The room is equipped with a king bed, table with seating for two, as well as our basic amenity package - a smart TV for wireless streaming, fast and free wi-fi and local coffee/tea in-room. PARKING IS AVAILABLE & LIMITED. You must reserve a parking spot ahead of time. Please call or email us directly if you wish to reserve a parking spot.

Please note that Prentiss House is a limited-staff and service hotel. Unlike some traditional hotels, we do not offer any food/beverage service or daily room cleaning. Using technology, a virtual front desk and roaming staff, we're able to make sure that our properties are in top shape without having dedicated front desk and concierge staff at each location. This operating model allows us to offer our rooms at a discount to traditionally staffed hotels and while our model does not suit everyone, we have found that most guests appreciate the additional savings, privacy, and chance to take advantage of the services provided by local businesses in the area.

In addition to the rooms, there are two great common spaces to enjoy. Inside, our Parlour + Sunroom Lounge is the perfect place to flip open your laptop or enjoy a BYO beverage by the fire. Outside, our lush garden terrace is an oasis in the city. It’s the place you want to be on a crisp fall day or warm summer evening, whether you’re gathered around the fire pit or laid back with your feet up and a good book in hand.

The hotel resides on a quiet residential street in the Baldwin neighborhood of central Cambridge. In the summer of 2021, the Baldwin neighborhood was named after black educator, Maria Baldwin who worked hard to represent the importance of racial justice and opportunities for women of color within Cambridge and beyond. To each side of the Baldwin neighborhood, lies Harvard and Porter square with Massachusetts Avenue serving as a connecter of the two. Directly to the east, the neighborhood borders the nearby city of Somerville. Surrounded by top institutions, there’s no shortage of activities, bars, and restaurants to experience during your stay at Prentiss House.
