SOMERVILLE, MA — Cambria Hotel Boston Somerville has officially opened its doors at 515 Somerville Avenue on the Cambridge line.

The hotel offers 163 spacious guest rooms across its six stories and a lobby space designed to attract both locals and visitors. It is located just half a mile from Harvard University and historic Union Square.

To complete this project, Boston’s The Noannet Group teamed up with Cambria Hotels, an upscale brand franchised by Choice Hotels International, and the local, family-owned Saunders Hotel Group, which will manage all hotel operations. The building was designed by CambridgeSeven, which is behind the project’s architecture, and award-winning hospitality interior designer Bill Rooney Studio, who is responsible for the interior.

“We could not ask for better neighbours, with Somerville and Cambridge being two of Greater Boston’s most energetic and forward-looking communities; lovable, quirky and historic, all while being at the forefront of Boston’s accelerated growth," Jordan Warshaw, hotel developer and President of The Noannet Group, said in a statement. "We are excited to offer guests the opportunity to enjoy all that this destination has to offer: an unmatched culinary scene, a vibrant music and arts culture, and cutting-edge tech and life science industries.”

"Beyond its location, we are also extremely proud of our hotel’s innovative design, social gathering space within the lobby, upscale guest amenities and exceptional hospitality,” he continued. "We extend our appreciation to the City of Somerville, Mayor Ballantyne and Councilor J.T. Scott for collaborating with us on this special project.”
