Nice room, well appointed with a comfortable bed. I was on the ground floor and it was very noisy until around 10:30pm. I was only a few steps from the bar and atrium areas which is why it was so noisy. There was no internal lock or chain for the door which is just a personal preference. The staff were all really nice and breakfast was good. Excellent location

Pretty and comfortable hotel in a privileged location with the added benefit of parking. We greatly appreciated being able to leave the car at the hotel and walk into Cambridge town centre. The highlight though has to be the vintage Bentley tour which we just loved.

8/10 Very good

The hotel was very nice and the room was a good size and clean. The breakfast was a bit disappointing, the food was fairly average and the team seemed understaffed so tables weren’t cleared or set properly and we had to get our own cutlery off another table. And also the coffee machine wasn’t working.
