Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Watertown
High-rated Watertown suites near Medium Rare
About this hotel
This Residence Inn holds a 9.2 rating across more than 800 reviews, among the strongest scores of any sizeable property in the entire corridor, combining studio and apartment-style suites with a genuine terrace and bar rather than the standard lobby setup. Arsenal Street is a two-minute walk away, and Medium Rare sits four minutes on foot for a proper steakhouse-style dinner without a taxi. The indoor pool and full kitchens cover both recovery and self-catering across a longer stay, and at twenty-one minutes from Logan, the airport run beats most of the Newton and Waltham cluster. Watertown itself sits a little further from Brae Burn's Newton neighborhood than the closest options, a reasonable trade for a property scoring this consistently well with guests.

Our take
A group that puts guest ratings and suite comfort first should look hard at this Residence Inn. The kitchens, indoor pool, terrace and bar suit a golf trip with several evenings, and dinner at Medium Rare is a four-minute walk. It is a slightly weaker fit for a group that wants to be as close as possible to Brae Burn Country Club's own Newton streets.
- Walk to Medium Rare for a proper dinner on at least one night; it beats most of the hotel-adjacent dining nearby.
- Book this property first if guest ratings matter most, given its 9.2 score across a large review base.
- Use the terrace and bar for a relaxed evening in rather than driving further into Waltham or Cambridge.

Why guests love itI would book the Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Watertown when a golf group wants space and a strong rating. The studios and apartments have kitchens, and the property adds an indoor pool, a terrace and a bar. It is two minutes' walk from Arsenal Street and four from Medium Rare for dinner. Guests rate it 9.2 across 833 reviews, though it is not the closest option to Brae Burn's own Newton streets.
