Prospect Place Bed and Breakfast

Conveniently located in the center of Cambridge, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University are only a short walk away, and metropolitan Boston just across the river. The subway and bus lines are just a few minutes from our front door.

Prospect Place was owned by the same family for over one-hundred years until 1994, when we purchased the home and began a period restoration...

• Bathrooms have been tastefully integrated to accommodate the needs of the bed and breakfast guest rooms yet great care has been taken to maintain the original spaces in the house.
• Period details abound, from classic archways and marble fireplaces to the graceful winding staircase and cut-glass windows.
