Mu husband and I stayed here for four nights in May 2013. We (Americans) were here to attend our son's graduation from Cambridge. Our flight got in early, and we were at the hotel at 8:45 AM, knowing that check-in time was 3:00 PM. We got a cup of coffee in the lounge, and then took a quick walk around... More

The front of the hotel looks gloomy, but on the river side it is an impressive building. Lovely view of the river from our balcony. Location is quite good, but quite a walk if coming by train - about 25 minute walk from station. We used our points for 1 night,but had we paid for it in full, we would... More

We stayed at this hotel July of 2012. This modern hotel was clean, friendly, and standard in all respects during our stay. The staff were efficient, room was clean, and location was near to a punting excursion point. Breakfast was ample. The hotel did not stand out in any positive or negative way. Standard chain hotel. Completely as expected for... More

Great location, but that's about it. You pay a lot for the room, but they still nickel and dime you on everything. Three of us decided to enjoy the view on the Cam and have a spot of tea. Tea was 10 pounds for 3 people. That's ridiculous. The fridge was filled with drinks and the lot, but no room... More

I booked a family room for me and my 2 children - it had a double and a single bed - for which I paid just under £200 ( including parking and breakfast). The room and balcony were not clean and I had to ask for that to be sorted along with the 3 trays of food that were outside... More

Dear BetsyBBR Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Please accept our most sincere apologies for the disappointing weekend you and your family experienced due mostly to the poor level of cleanliness. As you rightly mentioned this was a very busy weekend and unfortunately some of our departments failed to meet our usual high standards of service.... More

I was lucky enough to be bought a champagne afternoon high tea by my friends. We used the swimming pool (small), sauna & jacuzzi before showering before our 3.30 booking. The changing rooms are minute particularly when there are also parents bringing their children for swimming lessons in the pool!!! Aside from that the tea was brilliant. Well mannered staff,... More

Cambridge hotels are an issue. They're either ridiculously expensive, grotty or a way out of town. This one makes a good compromise. Parking for the whole weekend was not includedbut there is a large onsite carpark and they charge 18.50 for the whole weekend- cheaper than any other option unless you can do park and ride. The staff were great.... More

Dear AmyJp1000 Thank you for your review. We are very glad that you enjoyed your annual visit to Cambridge, and that your change of hotel paid off.
