Desperate for new mattresses

Arundel House has many things to recommend it - location along the canal and park, secure parking, onsite restaurant. The staff was professional and efficient. Unfortunately, they also had possibly the worst sleeping comfort I've ever encountered at a hotel. Wafer thin pillows and mattresses that were so worn out they simply collapsed into an asymmetrical crater beneath you. In fairness, given the overall rating, I suspect we simply got a room very much in need of updating. But it will.prevent me from staying there again. Other aspects of the hotel were very nice, but it's also good to be aware there is quite a lot of late night street noise at weekends from students in the park.

Although the hotel is a nice location, walking distance to most things and yet still quiet on the evening, there were many elements that was not so go The room was recording 29 degrees when we entered it and there was no Air Con or fan, and the windows had been kept closed - it took several hours for it to cool The bar closed at 10, so there was no ability to have a drink in the evening when returning The car park is £18 for the night if you dont book direct, but this expires at 11:30 the following morning and then its £2.50 per hour I just felt that they could have done more and be more accomodating

Great location, opposite Jesus Green though on a busy road which meant road noise. We booked a large twin. I’m not convinced we got this as our room did not look like the pictures and was more of a small twin, even though I checked with reception. Hmmm! Very clean and nice fluffy towels. Hot day and we were on the top floor - it was almost unbearably hot.

Very nice old building with lots of original featues,lovely airy conservatory for breakfast, a bit misleading in photos of full english but only continental included in price, full english is an extra 12.50 pp, plus 18 pp for parking is a bit steep. Otherwise lots of stairs to our room on third floor as we were right in the eaves, so for those with mobility issues always best to check to be put on ground floor, also stairs down to restaurant/breakfast room, we had an enjoyable stay.

Tired but transformable.

The staff were very helpful supplying a fan as it was over 30 degrees and our room( 207) was located just above the kitchen extractor fans. It has a beautiful conservatory where we ate the continental breakfast which was basic but sufficient and included in the booking price;a cooked breakfast was an additional £12pp. No dairy alternatives were available. Be advised that parking is £18 per night unless you book directly through the hotel and is not mentioned by third party booking agents. If the company shareholders were to invest in a deep clean of existing carpets, upholstery etc and redecorate it would greatly increase its appeal as its in a prime location next to the River Cam and a 15 minute river walk into Cambridge central.

No lift so be prepared to lug suitcases up three flights of stairs yourself. Be very careful you don’t end up with a room on Level 3 where the bedroom is a further flight of stairs from the “en/suite”.

Cambridge hotel with parking

Sadly few staff at check in. The hotel is a conversion from a row of separate houses with a central corridor to access bedrooms, with many steep staircases, no lifts available. So carried luggage up the staircases. The rooms on the 3rd floor are very small and in the hot weather not well ventilated. We needed to open the only window to the emergency staircase to allow some ventilation at night in a warm summer visit. No fans or airconditioning available, it is an old building. Staff only seen at front desk and breakfast and limited in number. The dining breakfast conservatory area is very pleasant but no lunch or tea service available. Few staff to clear tables in the conservatory at breakfast Parking is plentiful but pricey, and the location is excellent

The hotel is in a decently convenient area but is extremely outdated, it feel like a WW2 experience. It was the cheapest option and I got what I paid for. The staff were lovely! The room was acceptable (though rather hot as the window was too small to have any effect haha) the continental breakfast was fitting to the rest of the experience... Overall, I'd stay stay again in a pinch... But I'd hapilly pay 30 quid more for a Premier Inn...

Better than I thought it would be; a rather old hotel in need of a bit of a facelift, but clean with helpful staff and well-located; included breakfast and restaurant available, both good.
