Thanks ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nichola 12 Sept 2024 Liked: Amenities Woke up covered in bites. Hands, arms, legs. Couldn’t get a hold of the porters. After trying for 45 minutes phoned several other numbers who put me through to the porters. Took 5 hours to allocate me another room. Room allocated was next door. Found it difficult to sleep for the worry about bed bugs. Took a reaction to the bites so had several days of antihistamines. Paranoid on taking bed bugs home I got rid of my suitcase. No mention of refund or partial refund. I wouldn’t return. ##### Nichola Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Holly Jade 15 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Holly Jade Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lensfield Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Lensfield-Hotel.h17185181.Hotel-Information) > > [The Varsity Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-The-Varsity-Hotel-Spa.h41854.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Fenners-Hotel.h9202402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cambridge City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Hilton-Cambridge-City-Centre.h8067.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Centric Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-Cambridge.h68865589.Hotel-Information) > > [Lux Living Apartments - Alpha Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Lux-Living-Apartments-Alpha-Apartments.h11629098.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Cambridge Orchard Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Travelodge-Cambridge-Orchard-Park.h12064012.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-The-Waterman.h4329320.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Cambridge by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Cambridge.h993753.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Cambridge Central Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Ibis-Cambridge-Central-Station.h15401581.Hotel-Information) > > [Citystay - The Vie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Citystay-The-Vie.h8762944.Hotel-Information) > > [West Court - Cambridge - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-West-Court-Cambridge.h35250698.Hotel-Information) > > [Turing Locke Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Turing-Locke.h68459935.Hotel-Information) > > [University of Cambridge, Homerton College - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-University-Of-Cambridge.h30551435.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge University, Churchill College](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-University.h30551548.Hotel-Information) > > [The Earl of Derby - Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-The-Earl-Of-Derby-Inn.h4190502.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel du Vin & Bistro Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Vin-Bistro-Cambridge.h7727331.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashley Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Ashley-Hotel.h18927887.Hotel-Information) > > [University Arms, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-University-Arms.h26072.Hotel-Information) > > [Graduate by Hilton Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Graduate-Cambridge.h22462.Hotel-Information) > > [Christs College Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Christs-College-Cambridge.h7307741.Hotel-Information) > > [Sorrento Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Sorrento-Hotel.h900680.Hotel-Information) > > [Arundel House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Arundel-House-Hotel.h1381852.Hotel-Information) > > [Gonville Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Gonville-Hotel.h6878.Hotel-Information) > > [University of Cambridge, Clare College - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-University-Of-Cambridge.h30551413.Hotel-Information) > > [YHA Cambridge - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-YHA-Cambridge-Hostel.h11518406.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fellows House Cambridge, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-The-Fellows-House-Cambridge.h50706499.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Cambridge-Formerly-Known-As-The-Tamburlaine-Hotel.h17161972.Hotel-Information) > > [University of Cambridge, St John's College - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-University-Of-Cambridge.h30551417.Hotel-Information) > > [University of Cambridge, Trinity Hall - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-University-Of-Cambridge.h30551403.Hotel-Information)
