Central location. Easy transfer from Trumpington Park & Ride. Easy check in. Comfortable room 201. Breakfast good, although not always easy for the staff to manage and maintain. 2 pay points in Oz & Isle would help service. Room 201 underfloor heating kept switching on. Bath was slippery when showering. Thank you for looking after us.

Beautiful building, lovely room, clean and spacious. unfortunately the underfloor heating in the bathroom would not turn off, we had the air con on 16 in our room the entire stay however our room was still very warm and the bathroom unbearable. Reception stated this is an issue they are aware of but don’t know where the heat is coming from, maybe that room should be closed until it can be fixed.

The hotel has only been open about 6mths. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was just like brand new. Shower was powerful. The location is prefect for exploring Cambridge, only about 5-10 mins walk from the centre but the design of the rooms shelter you from any noise from the main road. Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and professional. The only disappointment was the breakfast, having pre paid for breakfast, found out they only offered a very limited cooked options (fried eggs, bacon, mushroom and tomatoes). If you wanted any of the other cooked options, they were extra. Having said that I may have misunderstood what the pre-paided breakfast included. Overall highly recommend this hotel. Great location, beautiful building and professional staff. Nearly forgot to mention the relaxing and beautiful restaurant/bar area.

Lovely new hotel in renovated, historical surroundings! My room was gorgeous, the shower was large and had really nice product, the staff were helpful (although there was some confusion about how often the room got cleaned and it if was possible to request a greater frequency). Note: they need to staff more people for the restaurant. It's a beautiful place but if there's only one person managing orders, billing, and the espresso bar, they're going to be stressed. That's not the staff's fault, that's a matter of management.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We struggled to get even the bare minimum of service during our stay. We had to ask several times just to get clean towels and have our rubbish bin emptied, but nothing was done. To make matters worse, the breakfast was absolutely not worth the price. The hot food choices were slim (or cold food for that matter) and the staff struggled to keep them replenished. Everyone ended up standing around just waiting for the next batch of food to be brought out.

I took a single studio room for a night. It was perfect for a single person, yet cleverly equipped with all the usual amenities one would expect. The staff were friendly, and I especially appreciated their late checkout policy. Although I didn’t get the chance to dine there, the breakfast looked pretty good. And all of this for a pretty reasonable price. The only thing that bothered me was the heating/cooling- it was concentrated in a narrow area, and not the most effective.

The room I had on the second floor is in the eaves, so I had to be bent over to walk around the bed. As a result, I injured my back. In addition, the room was incredibly overheated, but I couldn’t close the open window because the toilet smelled absolutely horrible. I will not be staying here again.
