Arrowstreet completes Harvard Sq. Hotel project

Harvard Square Hotel - Cambridge, MA

Arrowstreet led the design for the renovations of the Harvard Square Hotel, adding to a series of campus hospitality venues for institutions in New England. The key to the design is in the enhancement of the guest experience and creating an oasis in the heart of Harvard Sq. The changes are evident upon arrival; the entry lobby is enlivened with a new contemporary stone-and-glass stair. The lobby includes a sunlit living room with furnishings with access to the latest technology. The mix of glass and natural stone create an atmosphere to this flexible space where guests view Harvard Sq. over coffee or an informal meeting. Guest rooms are fully transformed with new finishes. The design takes cues from Harvard's traditions and campus; colored guest rooms are punctuated with crimson accents and oversized campus photographs. This complements the modern, custom furnishings, which are carefully designed to maximize storage and workspace. Improved baths with glass-tiled showers complete the transformation.
"This was a stunning transformation to create a modern boutique hotel ideally situated at the heart of Harvard Sq.," said David Bois, Arrowstreet's project designer and manager. "The hotel now truly reflects the sophistication of Harvard University, Harvard Square, and its many visitors."
The newly renovated Harvard Sq. Hotel is a centerpiece hotel in the historic district of Harvard Sq.
