Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Needham
Needham suites with kitchens near Pressed Cafe
About this hotel
This Residence Inn combines two things a golf group actually wants: Needham's closer distance to Brae Burn's neighborhood, and full kitchens in every suite for handling breakfast before an early tee time without waiting on a restaurant. Free breakfast is available anyway for anyone who would rather not cook, and the indoor pool covers recovery after a multi-round stretch in summer humidity. Pressed Cafe sits a four-minute taxi ride away for a casual coffee or lunch stop, and the twenty-six-minute run to Logan matches the rest of the Needham and Waltham cluster. Rooms lean practical rather than styled, in keeping with the Residence Inn brand, built for a longer stay rather than a one-night stopover.

Our take
Kitchens in every suite and a free breakfast give the Residence Inn Boston Needham genuine independence for a group playing Brae Burn, and Needham keeps the course within easy reach. The indoor pool works in any season, and the 8.4 guest score is reassuring. I recommend it to groups and couples who want space and the option to cook; anyone after a lively bar, fine dining or a resort feel will find it too practical.
- Cook breakfast in the suite kitchen before an early tee time rather than relying on the hotel's breakfast service alone.
- Stock the kitchen at a nearby grocery stop on arrival day if the trip runs four nights or longer; it pays off by round three.
- Use the indoor pool after a humid summer round to recover before the group heads out for dinner.

Why guests love itI would choose the Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Needham for a golf trip to Brae Burn Country Club that needs real room to live in. Every suite has a kitchen, breakfast is free, and an indoor pool takes care of the evenings whatever the weather. Pressed Cafe is about four minutes away by taxi for a change from cooking. Guests rate it 8.4 across 676 reviews, a strong score for a three-star all-suite hotel.
