The hotel is perfectly located within two minutes of the historic centre and all the colleges. At the same time it’s in a quiet cul de sac by the fields and on the bank of the river Cam. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. It genuinely feels like a boutique with careful design, pretty furniture. Only the breakfast reminds you it’s part of Hilton with its cheap cereal, pre-made fruit salad and plastic looking eggs. This is the only negative. In every other way this is a perfect choice to visit Cambridge. Very conveniently located. We had been upgraded to a very spacious room with a balcony. It’s very sparse on bathroom amenities (nothing by the sink other than soap). But otherwise great value for the price.

We paid much more money to stay here because of the location which was walkable to everything we wanted to do. The outdoor area by the canal was very nice and the bed was very comfortable. 3 out of the 7 nights we had no housekeeping at all and we were gone all day sightseeing. I complained after 2 days in a row and things got better and then on our last day no service again so my husband complained and they offered free drink tickerts. We had already been to dinner and wanted a clean room not drinks. Will not stay in any Hilton hotel again.
