Good, but room for improvement.

Generally a nice stay in a fine hotel. The only major problem I encountered was when I arrived, the booking was not able to be found, despite my receiving a confirmation. Still, the reception was very helpful and gave me a complimentary drink while I waited for my booking to be found and re-created. The only minor concern I had was the amount of cobwebs in the shower. Clearly, housekeeping doesn’t have a duster that can reach the top corners, because these cobwebs have been there for quite some time. Apart from that, a quiet hotel with great amenities and a real sense of class without the ostentatious feel that other hotels in Cambridge have.

Fabulous hotel

Luca the manager and all front desk staff were excellent, really helpful and welcoming. The late night bar staff were difficult to find and perhaps need more training. My husband asked for a glass of Gavi (white wine which we had had in the restaurant) the member of staff didn’t know what it was and pointed to the spirits and the champagne questioningly. Then my husband asked for a cup of coffee and there was was only oat milk to go with it. So we decided to call it a night. Hotel is ideally placed for exploring the wonderful city of Cambridge. The hotel room was clean, spacious and comfortable and the food in the restaurant was fabulous. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend

By the river, this hotel is ideally situated for exploring Cambridge. The staff are excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms are well appointed, cosy and very clean. We ate in the restaurant and can recommend it along with the bar where excellent cocktails are served. There's a large car park (unusual in Cambridge) which also has 6x EV chargers.

Lovely hotel

My boyfriend and I had a great stay in this hotel for 2 nights over the Christmas break. The room was very spacious, and the spa facilities were fantastic. Just a short 8-10 min walk to the city centre too. Downside is you are charged per day for the car park which we weren’t aware of.
