An Inside Look at Irving House at Harvard

Irving House has been under the current ownership and management since 1990. We have renovated this old house several times to improve guest comfort and safety. Located on a quiet residential street, we are also near to the excitement and convenience of Harvard Square, with easy access to Boston. Irving House is an award winning green hotel too! Breakfast is locally sourced, organic and healthy as much as possible.
