Cambridge Hotel Guide - 4 stars Hotels in Cambridge, United Kingdom

Welcoming receptionist even though we arrived at about 11 in the evening. The rooms have been refurbished recently by the look of them, and the workmanship looked just fine.

Location, building,food and all staff excellent. Very memerable overnight stay.

Hotel staff brilliant - well equipped gym - great break fast - after a couple of visits to Resturant they knew who I was and what my preference were.

Staff were very friendly and helpful on all occasions

Lovely hotel with attention to detail and very helpful staff.

This is a very comfortable hotel, with polite staff, and the whole location was well maintained and clean. Service was always good and the breakfast was excellent each morning we stayed. The location itself is a few minutes walk from the centre of Cambridge and all the local attractions there making them easily accessible. I would recommend going punting but do it early before it gets too busy...there are plenty of other sites and buildings to visit such as the Fitzwilliam Museum, and the various colleges. There are also numerous restaurants and cafes to visit as you meander through the streets. A great place to visit.

The staff really makes you feel like family. They are polite, helpful, sweet and friendly. I travel for business so I'm usually not in "vacation mode" and generally not really relaxed during my trips but at the John Barleycorn, I felt like I could work and be on vacation at the same time. It was really nice. At one breakfast, after the manager had taken my order, I had to take an important phone call so I ran out of the room. When I came back, 30 minutes later, the manager smiled and says he'll bring my breakfast out now. He didn't want it to get cold while I was outside on my phone call so he had put it in a "hot cabinet". And two seconds later when he brought out my food, it was still hot and perfect. They care! And that's awesome.

We have stayed at this hotel before and once again we were not disappointed. We have already booked our Christmas Afternoon tea and will be staying again in the future.
