Welcome to the Family

From our guests, to employees, to our very own Cambridge neighbors. You all make up our Charles Hotel family since opening our doors in 1985. It’s about time we get to know each other! Each month, we’ll share little tidbits of the very personalities and characters that brighten our days, everyday.

Let’s start the introductions:

Richie Hannigan – Doorman
Class of ‘91

If you’ve stayed with us before – then you’ve likely been greeted by Richie’s thick Boston accent. Growing up in neighboring Somerville on Prospect Hill, he’s been with us for over 26 years. Wow.

What’s your favorite thing to order at Henrietta’s Table?
Hands down the French toast – with all the works. And you can’t forget the side of bacon.

Who has been the most memorable guest you’ve met?
It was my first day of work and Paul Newman showed up with his wife. I knew he was a racecar driver, so I was surprised to see him pull up in a Volvo station wagon.
