Clean comfortable rooms and decent bathrooms, with parking and breakfast (super-friendly waitresses) all for less than the Premier Inn was charging.

Excellent location
Fantastic service from the two sisters, who couldn't do enough for you, at breakfast.
Excellent location, close to city centre and with free carpark.
The only complaint I have is on arrival I was told I had to pay £15 as I booked "through a third party, but this will be refunded straight away". Sadly this was not the case. I know it was only £15, but unhappy that I was lied to! Is this one way of management getting more money out of people? I have tried to get this refunded unsuccessfully.
Great value, great location, parking on site, lovely greeting, good breakfast
Dated decor but clean and honest

Hotel is in a time warp from 1990's. Room nice, decor was outdated. Great location to walk into centre of Cambridge along River Cam and parks. Highlight was the two sisters who run the breakfast and house keeping. So friendly, fun and accommodating.
very helpful cleaners. Friendly customer service from them but not from management

A great base to stay to explore Cambridge from
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at the Ashley Hotel. Although externally and to a degree internally it is a little tired and dated, our room was clean, the bed comfy and the shower excellent with plenty of hot water. The full english breakfast was a treat to look forward to and the serving staff extremely pleasant and helpful. Parking within the grounds was plentiful and free and the walk into central Cambridge only took 15 minutes via pleasant parkland paths. All in all a great place to stay if visiting Cambridge.

We were a bit dubious when we first saw the outside but the interior was bright and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Lots of choice for breakfast.
Ideal location for Cambridge city centre - a pleasant 20 minute stroll through the park ( or catch a bus from the front of the hotel).We would definitely stay here again.

Ashley hotel
The hotel was clean and generally comfortable but it is definitely in need of decoration and refurbishing.
It seemed unusual that there was no staff resident outside of a few hours a day though.
The breakfast was good and the staff who served us were excellent.

We had a lovely stay at this hotel, great breakfast, great location walkable to get to river and city centre. Clean room, nice comfy bed and quiet location. The hotel itself could benefit from a little refurbishment but it didn’t affect our stay.
