Good location

Initially allocated a rather drab room with badly stained/damaged carpet - unacceptable as the hotel was not fully booked. On contacting reception about this, we were kindly moved to a much nicer room with a park view. Enjoyed the underfloor heating in the bathroom, quality bedding and windows that you can open to let in fresh air. Missed having a bathtub as most rooms only have a shower. Cleaning could be improved as the chaise was stained - rather off-putting. Overall a nice stay in beautiful Cambridge

Great location, very friendly staff everywhere, excellent breakfast with plenty of gluten-free options that we weren't expecting. Nice Krups coffee machine in room and small fridge, lovely shower. A few niggles with the facilities - bathroom vent did not extract quickly when steamy - there was a switch outside the bathroom which did nothing. One of the bedside lamps did not work at all. Youtube showed on TV as an option but did not work. There weren't many TV channels either, you could get a lot more with standard Freeview. Would recommend to others as a lovely historic building in the centre of town, it smells amazing and we slept amazingly.

The hotel itself is lovely, well decorated and comfortable. The service however was quite poor. The staff allocation was very odd - check in took ages because there was only one person on the desk, and there was only one bartender making drinks on a very busy evening - it took nearly half an hour to get two drinks. Not what you would expect from a luxury hotel, and no apologies.

Not as old school luxury as I thought

Stayed overnight as visiting with a friend. I think I was expecting the room to have have a little more old school luxury . I’d upgraded to a king room. All that was in the strange shaped room was a bed, desk and a random settle without the back. I had thought there would be an occasional chair, but maybe I was expecting too much. Bathroom was lovely and sizeable Nice wardrobe with tea and coffee, unfortunately the milk was off which destroyed my chance of a nice cup of tea in bed. The bed though. It was divine. I like firm beds but this one was perfect and the bedding was good quality. Room was quiet although right by stairs. Aircon was not adjustable except to turn it on and off but the temperature was ok. Their idea of 24 hr room service needs work. Sandwiches! The lifts can take forever to arrive and I didn’t like that they appear not to have service lifts so you end up sharing with all manner of things. All in all a nice first experience but I don’t know if I’d stay again.
