"A reasonable hotel overall with city centre sights close-by." (97677073)
A very good hotel in most respects.Receptionists very good and helpful.
£15 to park a car is a little naughty. Staff 'waiting' at breakfast could be shown how to smile at customers, which creates a welcome atmosphere, and costs the hotel nothing (I may be being a little 'picky' on this!)

"Hotel is ideally situated. Breakfast and service very good." (99864787)
Very friendly staff
Carpets require cleaning in the room. General decor needs refreshing, looks tired and slightly grubby.

"This was our first visit to Cambridge and sadly will be our last staying in the city. Parking was a total nightmare and we worked out that it would have been much better to have stayed in a hotel outside Cambridge and then travel in by park and ride. We would not recommend Cambridge to any of our friends as a short stay venue as it has totally priced itself out of the market. " (97575472)
Staff were pleasant and helpful Room spacious and facilities good Nice touch to have the magazines to read and the luxuries in the bathroom
The lighting in the room was poor - one light inbetween the beds was totally inadequate if you wanted to read in bed - room too dark - an additional standard lamp would have been better. The website indicated that the hotel was near to the Aracde Car Park, giving the impression it was easy to park - in fact it was NOT. When we arrived the car park was full and we had to spend an age trying to find parking facilities and then walk with our luggage to the hotel. The price also for parking was ridiculous - our main objective during our stay was to drive away from Cambridge each day to stay out of the city as long as we could knowning that when we did return the cost of parking would be far too high. Not something we had bargained for.
