Hotels Near University of Cambridge in Cambridge

Staff were very helpful on multiple occasions. First, we had to change our booking owing to the heatwave, and while Booking.com failed us in this regard, a quick phone call to Alex, the receptionist, got us all sorted. Secondly, the staff were very generous with provided fans, offering as many as we'd like, and thirdly when we had to use ”Send my Bag.com” to get some suitcases back home, they handled everything on their end perfectly and without charge. The hotel itself has some nice old interior decor, and the continental breakfast was very generous. Location was also a big plus, as it is difficult to find anywhere closer to the old university town. One small gripe would be that the en suite had a few minor spots missed in its cleaning, though the room itself was spotless.

We had stayed earlier in February so when we had to return sadly for a funeral it was our first choice plus it is such a lovely quiet location with free parking and was all the more beautiful for the sunshine and onset of spring. Jane and Mark had clearly been busy updating the decor which was fabulous with stunning rich curtain fabrics and cushions - each room is themed - with beautiful art featuring flora and fauna - this time I had the kingsize room with the slipper bath at the end of the landing and my mother had the same room at the top of the stairs with the walk in shower. The same fantastic service and delicious breakfast - this time I had the fruit salad and then smoked salmon with scrambled eggs! Jane is a super talented crafty lady - they had recently opened their shop at the front of the B&B - filled with the most wonderful handmade cards and notebooks plus so many unique and beautiful crafts for sale including childrens clothes and toys - plus Mark runs a picture framing business on site too! My mother and I are keen florists and were touched to be given huge bunches of curly willow tree branches - perfect for my Easter tree arrangement! Such a lovely stay with very kind and considerate hosts. We will be back.

This is a great little independent hotel close to the heart of Cambridge that has a real touch of luxury for a very affordable price. We had a great time. Lovely drinks in the afternoon, followed by trip into Cambridge and everyone was very friendly. Only slight downside was that the breakfast was, perhaps a little underwhelming rather than that we really really enjoyed our stay.

I have never been more unsatisfied with an accommodation in all my life. I am not accustomed to leaving bad reviews – I am easy to please and I have only ever posted one negative review of a hotel or guesthouse before but I have to make an exception in this case. The way they treat guests here is disgraceful. I paid in advance in full the agreed price for a one-night stay but when I arrived I found I was unable to gain entry without the key which is accessible only by entering a code. However they refuse to inform you of this code unless you phone them (at a number they don't inform you of in advance - I had to obtain this number off a fellow guest who had the same issues when checking in that I had). Worse still, when you phone them, they refuse to tell you the code unless you consent to pay an ADDITIONAL £100 (that I had not been informed about in advance) as some sort of ”insurance fee”. They then request you to send them your name by SMS and at this point despite my assurances that I was not informed in advance about this £100 extra charge (which they say is refundable) they refused to believe that I had not been told about it in advance, implying that I was not telling the truth, which I resented as I knew that on the contrary I was telling the truth and furthermore I had encountered another guest who had had an identical experience to me the night before, and he also had been told nothing in advance about the room key and code being withheld unless you pay this extra £100. They DID NOT email me or notify me in any other way, and as you will see from many other reviews left online by disgruntled guests, I am far from being the only one. Also, as other guests who have left reviews have pointed out, there is NO representative on the premises to ask or deal with. This is a dereliction of duty, clearly motived by the same cost-cutting, financially-motived measures as their other decisions, at the expense of their guests safety and wellbeing. I was exhausted after travelling for 24 hours straight, and by now it was midnight, so I agreed to their demand for more money in order to be allowed to finally go to my room - the room I had paid for in advance remember. I asked if I could pay the additional £100 fee in the morning, and they refused, they insisted it be paid in full before I went to bed. It ended up taking me until 2am in the morning to arrange the payment, with a very complicated system which involved having to exchange SMS messages back and forth with a member of staff and requesting all manner of codes which was a huge hassle in the state I was in. However, I paid their additional fee and thought that was the end of it and that I might be allowed to finally have some peace for the few hours I would be staying there. Which made it all the more annoying that the following morning, a member of staff came to my room and banged on the door at 11.00am on the dot - checkout time was 11am but I thought they might have waited even 2 min

This hotel will charge a health fee of 65 pounds, which is higher than the room rate. Be careful when booking! I arrived at the hotel on the day of check-in and told me about the hotel maintenance, and arranged me to another ... In short, it is not recommended! This hotel will charge ￡65 cleaning fee，and it is unrefundable. This cleaning fee is even higher than the house rate!

The family hotel is in a good location, the facilities are average, the bed is very comfortable, the breakfast is a little less, overall it is OK, but because the deduction problem is communicated by the waitress, but she is not so nice, saying that she has to wait for the manager to come back and take the baggage in the afternoon. The manager is very good, the problem is solved quickly, it is really a completely different service experience for different people.

This is a modern and clean hostel ,the staff are friendly ,kind and considerate, and listened patiently to my several and widely varied questions . I found out more from the reception here than the tourist information in Cambridge town centre (which is absolutely useless).The rooms are clean as are the showers and toilets .The food is good but a full breakfast is £9.95 and often you are only permitted 1 slice of bacon ,1 hash brown and 1 sausage which is financially poor value . Wetherspoons in Cambridge has a large breakfast for £7.95 but is a bit of a walk from the hostel. The location is good about 10-15 minutes from the railway station where there are other eating outlets . the self catering kitchen is good and there are kettles there to make your own hot drinks or bring takeaway food in if you wash and clean up afterwards .There is a lounge with books and board games and a tv with all the normal terrestrial channels. Parking in Cambridge is very controlled ,limited and expensive .I parked at the park and ride on Madingley road day return tickets are £3.50 and single tickets are £2.00. The park and ride bus service P+R 1 will only take you to st Andrews street (outside John Lewis) and there you must get another bus or face a 20/25 minute walk. The charge to park is about £10 per 24 hours booked over the phone. Parking near the hostel is on the road and is limited (Devonshire road) it is paid hourly by machine max 2 Hours or free after 5.00pm until 9.00am and free all day Sundays . Devonshire road is accessed by using the ring road and going down mill road (beware of the one way system.)

Title: A Stellar Experience at This Exceptional Hotel I recently had the pleasure of staying at this outstanding hotel, and I am more than pleased to share my delightful experience. The environment of the hotel is nothing short of impressive. Nestled in an exquisitely landscaped setting, the hotel boasts an ambiance that perfectly blends sophistication with tranquility. The interiors are tastefully designed, radiating warmth and comfort. The cleanliness throughout the premises is commendable - from the plush guest rooms to the common areas, every nook and cranny exudes a sense of freshness and hygiene. The peaceful surroundings coupled with top-notch facilities made my stay truly rejuvenating. As for its location, it couldn’t be more ideal. Strategically situated in the heart of the city, the hotel offers easy access to major tourist attractions, business hubs, as well as shopping and dining destinations. Its prime location turned out to be a significant advantage during my trip, saving me considerable time on commuting and allowing me to explore the city effortlessly. The check-in process was seamless and straightforward. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the courteous and professional front desk staff who swiftly processed my paperwork. Their use of advanced technology expedited the check-in procedure, making it a hassle-free experience. They were attentive to my needs and provided clear instructions, which made my first encounter with the hotel quite memorable. In summary, this hotel excels not only in providing a serene and luxurious environment but also in offering a convenient and central location. The efficient and user-friendly check-in process further enhanced my overall experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a comfortable and enjoyable stay. It’s truly a gem that combines the best of service, location, and ambience. I look forward to returning to this fine establishment on my next visit.

The rooms are located on the second floor of the bar, the decoration facilities are good, the cleaning is very clean, and the accommodation experience is OK. Although it is a bar, it is not very noisy at night. There will be some sound of vehicles passing by the room on the side of the road, but the impact is not big. The only downside is that there is no special lock-up room, and the cockroach is placed in the corner of the aisle without special care.
