Best Hotels near Trader Joe＇s, Acton

Best Residence Inn I’ve visited. Sparkling clean, modern, even luxurious. Staff very friendly and responsive. Fitness center is also spacious, good accessories like weighted med balls, foam rollers, mats, etc. to complement your workout. Not walking distance to central Concord (unless you REALLY like walking), but a very short drive. Location is quiet, not much traffic noise. And finally: it SMELLS terrific. Not just “new hotel” but a nice welcoming subtle vanilla-ish scent. The little things: great hair dryer, USB ports everywhere, a small working or eating table that can be pulled up to the couch (which includes a chaise longue) to hold your drinks or laptop. Fluffy towel index: 3.5 out of 5.

We LOVED The Archer Hotel! So many little, well thought out details, the likes of which are normally found in more costly hotels. We were blown away by this boutique hotel right from the start - the inviting lobby boasts plenty of windows, brick, and an industrial chic vibe. You quickly notice the penny candy (on display adjacent to check in), the refreshing lemon/lime/orange water, the comfy chairs of all types and sizes, and the pool table if you're so inclined. The rooms, large, well decorated and very clean are filled with sweet surprises behind every door. From the complimentary oh-so-creamy caramels and Fiji water, the Nespresso machine complete with glass cups and saucers, to the robe in the closet and slippers in the bathroom, we were delighted with each discovery. Personally, the bed was too hard for me and my husband, but it was nicely adorned with plenty of pillows of assorted poof. Both nightstands had ample USB slots for charging our devices and the coat rack on the wall inside the door was handy and a better place for our coats than the bed! I absolutely loved the ceiling decor by the elevators...a collection of ceiling medallions in a blue-silver hue, as well as the color scheme in the hallways and room doors. We took advantage of a recent drink & dine offer, a $25 credit to be used at their AKB bar/kitchen. We ordered their classic breakfast sandwich; eggs, cheese, spinach, and tomato, with this incredible savory sauce served on a toasted brioche roll (I’m salivating as I type). Delivered to our room with coffee and tea, it was one of the most memorable egg sandwiches I have ever had! The location was good - close to the Burlington Mall and so may restaurants. 3rd Avenue is also host to a couple of eating spots, bowling and arcade, and Wegman's grocery store. If I’m going on and on about this hotel, it’s because I loved it so. We are hoping to try another Archer Hotel in a different city soon!

Very good hotel, good location, more than 20 minutes from MIT and Harvard University, room facilities are good, but also cooking. Pots and pans are complete, dishwasher is also very good, large refrigerator Very real, free parking, great, staying here next time.

On March 19, my sons and I pulled off a wonderful, surprise 75th birthday dinner party for 26 at The Groton Inn, with friends and relatives flying in from as far away as Seattle and Charleston, SC. It was 5 star in every aspect. Everyone raved about the quality of food. I tasted all three hors d'oeuvres and loved them all. Even our 3 and 6 year old grandchildren ate them! Several told me how much they loved the short ribs. Utterly delightful and like nothing I had tasted before! Those choosing the chicken entree found it delicious, as did those with the vegetarian linguini choice. The steak was very tasty and exceedingly tender for a NY *****. The corn bisque was devine. The arugula salad light and a perfect transition to the main course. Portions were huge. I was afraid, in advance, of noise and distraction by servers between courses, but not once did I hear the sound of a dish clanging against another! It was a 5 star service. Our grandchildren were taken care of perfectly, as if they were tiny adults. They felt like it and consequently behaved as well. The cake presentation was fabulous, with lights dimmed and expertly timed! And the ”service captain” divided the remaining cake in thirds and boxed it so that it was more manageable to take home. So delicious! Dolce Amor, the local Sicilian baker, is incredible!!!!! And I have traveled to 40+ countries and lived in France and NYC where food is fantastic. The Groton Hill punched every possible ”ticket.” But the captain went over the top with her service, offering to take my coat moments after I walked in to the SURPRISE greeting. Such a perfect gesture and an unscripted one! She also looked after those of us lingering with hotel guests, even getting us cups of water. She was simply great. I know the staff was weary, but she never stopped. The room was so beautifully set - flowers and placecards - oh I was so pleased. But guests commented to me as well on such details. They also loved their sleeping rooms, specious, comfortable and quiet. And the Front Desk was an accomplice in the crime of the SURPRISE. They held ”props” for my son from CA and he even dressed in costume in their midst. They ensured all guests had their welcome bags, carefully segregating the two for the grandchildren. Everyone was thrilled and seemingly very happy having attended. The morning after, my husband and I were there at 7 for early risers, headed to the airport or home by car, for a lovely and bountiful buffet breakfast. Compliments streamed. I never heard a single complaint, if there was one. I am so grateful to The Groton Inn for orchestrating such a fun and memorable event, beginning with Eleanor and the Sales Staff for their advice each step along the way. Nancy

Great hotel with great value for your money. The location is very close to the highway in route to Boston. The rooms are nice and clean and the amenities are great. All in all a great stay for a families of five.

Our family stayed at SpringHill Suites North Devens Corner two weeks ago. Although we were in town for an athletic event at Progin Park we were NOT part of the Mass Soccer Association group staying at the hotel. I have no issues with this physical property-it is fairly new and well maintained. Outside of the hotel was clean and well kept. There were luggage trolleys available and working elevators to the three floors. The first floor included a medium size heated pool area and separate workout/fitness room. All equipment was in working order and the pool area was clean when we arrived. We also used the laundry facilities while we were there. All machines were working and only $1 a load. The laundry area did have a lot of debris and trash on the floor though. We arrived a little early and after a mix up with our room, we settled in. We were notified upon arrival that the hotel was overbooked. Which was a huge disappointment to be moved from our pre-booked room. We are rewards members and book using the app for this very reason, so we will never be bumped from a room-but we were. That issue was cleared up with the help of front desk staff. I found all the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There is an outdoor seating area and an indoor lobby seating area where the breakfast is held. The free complimentary breakfast was good with a variety of cold items, two types of fresh fruit and three hot items (breakfast sandwich, sausages and pre-cooked omelet bites). This area was clean and the staff was VERY attentive and kind. Pool met our needs and was heated and clean-no hot tub. The room we had was a suite and had two full size beds and an older style pull out couch. The room was clean, bathroom was a split and was clean. Beds were comfortable and clean. There was only one TV for the space. Kitchen area had a sink, microwave and mini fridge. All were clean with a small coffee maker. After checking in and getting settled we used the pool and went to our event and dinner. When we returned we saw a very different hotel. The hotel was in fact sold out and the lobby area was FILLED with parents from the Youth Soccer Organization event. They had taken over the lobby and breakfast area and were occupying every table. There were also excessive amounts of alcohol and drinking. In coolers, open containers, in bags on the floor, set up on the tables-pretty much everywhere. It was very apparent that these 50 or so people were intoxicated. Where are all their children you ask? Running wild in the hotel. We saw kids ranging from 3-15 trashing doors and hallways, spilling drinks on the floor and carpet, grinding food into rugs and on doors. While returning to our room I observed kids opening creamers in the free coffee area and pouring them on the floor and throwing them at doors. It was disgusting. I am appalled that a hotel would allow and encourage (by allowing them to occupy and drink in this public space) such behavior. I have stayed at Marriotts aroun

The front desk service is good, breakfast is the best among several hotels in the United States, balanced and very full. Remember to get the food before 10 o'clock, outdated. The room is large, the fly in the ointment is that the room with disabled bathing equipment leaks more after the shower.
